Welcome to the dark side, my friend.

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

That's what we surmised, but is it ever said outright in the film?

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.

KNIGHT
You have chosen wisely. But the
Grail cannot pass beyond the
Great Seal. That is the boundary
and the price of immortality.
