Indiana Jones Trilogy
I'm young but I grew up with Indiana Jones. I grew up watching it every year with my family. A while back, I remember thinking to myself, "Why is it not out on DVD?". I went to Amazon and proceeded to preorder it. These movies are magic. The acting is supurb and the eloquence with which the movies are brought to the screen is fantastic.

Raiders of the Lost Ark follows Indiana Jones in his quest to stop the Nazis from obtaining the Ark of the Covenant, which all think will bring them enough power to rule the world. Along the way he encounters colorfeul characters such as Marian (Indy's love interest) and the monkey. The movie portrays a sense of old time action adventure. It goes substantially against the grain of the time it was made in, and was a tribute to the great Adventure movies of the past.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was the more gory and dark of the three movies. It tracks Indy as he infiltates an ancient temple and in the process saves hundreds of kids from slavery. Scenes like the railroad ride and the heart ceremony stay in your hear for a long time. Although it is still a great film, it is probobly the weakest of the three.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade returns to the Nazis. This time, they want the holy grail. And in a web of deception and greed, our hero must fight them back. It returns to the grain of the first movie and is a fine end to the trilogy (Although there is a 4th movie in the works right now).

As for the DVD, the features are weak. There is little bonus content and the real joy is in the movies themselves. After all, thats what counts...

This is the best!!!
"If adventure has a name..... it must be Indiana Jones!"

My favorite movies are finally on DVD!!!!! These have been restored to have a VERY GOOD picture.

RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK: This movie is probably my favorite of all three Indy films. In this one, Indy goes after the Ark of the Covenant in a race against the Nazis. In this one, my favorite scene is the Desert Chase. There was one little flaw, though.... I heard that when you touch the Ark, you instantly die... oh well....

INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM: The dark chapter of the Indiana Jones series, Indy goes after the mystical Sankara stones, and must save hundreds of children from the evil Thuggee cult. The "most crystallizing moment" is the Rope Bridge scene where Indy cuts the bridge. That's AWESOME!

INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE: In this one, Indy's back against the Nazis, and going after the Holy Grail. But he's not alone, this time he gets his dad, played by Sean Connery. My favorite scene in this one is the Tank Duel.

These are all great movies, and I highly recommend them.

Han Solo with a Whip
The box set of this epic trilogy reveals all about this franchise and I must say it is very good.

As with all true fans, The Temple of Doom is correctly treated as the first story, them Raiders and then The Last Crusade. the forth disc is full of information and with the Young Indie chronicals and the future 2006 movie, the adventures for Indiana Jones will thill.
