I seem to remember another goof up with the staff of Ra. He drops it into the hole and it hits the floor. As he climbs down the rope made from flags, the staff is leaning up against a wall. But it's been awhile since I've seen the film...

Not to mention that in reality pre-WWII diesel submarines could run submerged for only short distances and did their long distance travel surfaced. So staying on wouldn't have been difficult. Even if they had decided to travel all the way there submerged but periscope up they'd have had to resurface about every 60 miles to recharge batteries.
Not being seen by the watch posted outside when surfaced would have been at least as difficult as hanging on in the first place. |

Oh, the big error in Temple of Doom was casting Kate Capshaw just because the director had the misguided hots for her. Though I will say that her performance gets better in the last third when all she's required to do is scream. She's a great screamer, up there with Fay Wray! If it weren't for Short Round, that film would have precious few redeeming qualities. But after the marathon, I think I like it better than Last Crusade, which was decidedly meh in every way. The character interplay between Ford and Connery and even with Alison Doody is terrific. But the proceedings are otherwise lackluster in some way that I can't quite quantify. It never occurred to me till yesterday, but how are they going to account for Indiana Jones being IMMORTAL in the new film (having drunk from the Holy Grail in the last one)?? |

Indy's dad was healed while in the cave so he stayed healed but if he was shot after leaving..... What GC said. Damn faster typist. |

If Indy fever is still going after the release of Crystal Skull, there'll be a Casa de Mousepod Screeningİ of some of the peripheral Indy stuff (TV Specials, a Young Indy episode or two...) plus Gunga Din and some Republic serials... |

Yesterday was also the first time I was highly amused by the Templar Knight's sad and pathetic wave of good-bye to Indy and Co. when he realizes no one will be staying behind to take over his role as immortal guardian of the grail. LSP and Tom noted it would have been a much better ending for Sean Connery to have had his immortality depend on staying on the far side of the seal and fullfilling his life-long Grail obsession by become Guardian of the Grail ... forever.
