i love indiana jones. and i love harrison ford even more. however, if spielberg admits this movie isn't very good...well, he's just right. it isn't. but indy's still dreamy throughout the whole movie.
i feel like temple of doom is a film best served with a group of people who all have good senses of humor. thankfully, this was the case last night during which we covered many topics including the lack of tap dance numbers in modern films, multiple forms of apocalypses (apocalypti?), the saint jeff peden memorial death fest's view on "brown people," and research into jonathan ke huy quan's more recent film experiences.
as far as action movies go, this one definitely had all the requirements; fist fights (including one between children), explosions, nearly complete inaccuracy, gun fights, a funny sidekick, and the near death of an obnoxious female character.
additionally, i would like to mention the fact that john williams' epic music really makes the indy films what they are (as is evidenced by the fact that madgyver and i were singing along to the end credits).
ultimately, even though i love indy and enjoyed watching temple of doom, i really missed karen allen.
i would also like to give myself a little room to be excited for our first field trip next week! plans tba!
