On this month's exclusive We Love Movies episode, the gang gets together (virtually) to chat about one of their all-time faves, Raiders of the Lost Ark! Why couldn't they get a better Alfred Molina dummy? Did Lucas slide in a jab at William Hootkins with that character name? How bad-ass is Marion Ravenwood? And how come there aren't any .gifs of Dietrich's head exploding? PLUS: Mulder and Scully, but they're nazi paranormal investigators!WHM is donating 100% of our 2020 merch income to causes fighting for racial justice. For more information on how you can pitch in, head over to our website.

Raiders x Seinfeld is an idea whose time has come.

Jan

Saw raiders last night on the big screen with a special side order of an orchestra live play.,very nice

Billie Jackson

Nebraska Cabin? The truth behind that one Ethel Cain song!

Jonathan

In my opinion, the most watchable film of all time. Anytime its on, im down for it.

Garrett Dryden

Just made my work day a million times better

EricH

We need the XL Files!

"Hand me the idol, ya old bag!" Already a classic episode.

Justin Robinson

Apparently the reason Temple of Doom was a prequel was because they didn’t want Indiana to cheat on Marion.

Andrea Russell

I’m so happy! This will make work a lot better for at least 2 hours. Thanks

Hey Eric, have you seen “A Private War”? Rosamund Pike plays Marie Colvin, who is a good representation of an eye-patch person. I haven’t seen it, but just saying—Rosamund Pike wearing an eye-patch.

But he hooks up with the blonde in Holy Grail anyways. I always assumed the fact that it’s a prequel is just owing to the nature of it being like an old school serial where your hero sorta jumped around in places and time depending on the current story

i know it's all over, but would The Warriors have been fitting for a side order of sleaze?

Andrew Burt

Nobody laughed at it, but I enjoyed Eric's 480 poo joke.

Patreon podcast synergy this week. You guys talking about Raiders while Podcast: The Ride’s Patreon episode this week was about Ivan Ooze. A lot of Paul Freeman love going around this week

I saw this in 1981 on one of my very first trips to the cinema. As a 7 year old I loved it, particularly the ark ghosts and the melting Nazis. Was sad when the monkey bought it until when I was older and realised it was a Nazi sympathiser who got what was coming to it. Harrison Ford was not the first choice for Indiana Jones. Klaus Kinski was offered the role of Todt in Raiders and turned it down. Somehow I conflated these two pieces of information and for years thought Klaus Kinski had been considered as Indiana Jones.

Temple of Doom is often my choice for listener request month, as it simultaneously manages to be absolutely great and absolutely terrible so would be curious to hear an episode on it. Though there is a stretch of the film where Harrison Ford is shirtless.

Josh

I remember watching these movies on my mom's vhs collection as a kid. Love all 3 Indy movies! Keep up the great work fellas.

Patrick C Brenner

Harrison and Terrence Ford? Harry and Terry Ford?! Where is that buddy comedy?

Alexander Farr

The last crusade is actually my favorite even though I agree raiders is the overall better crafted film. It's also rare to find movies that resonate both as an adult and a child. This is the film series I'm most looking forward to sharing with my kids one day. In my mind the poor quality of Indy4 doesn't rub off on the original trilogy quite like Rise of Skywalker did to Star Wars.

Hercules

Escape To The House of Mummies, Part 2!

Darryl Bowen

My aunt is married to the guy who played the version of the guy who gets chopped up in the propeller from the live stunt show

Beatrix

Fantastic ep on a fantastic movie. I actually grew up watching, and becoming the most familiar with, "Temple of Doom" as a kid, but I have to concede it does get a little problematic. Hopefully you all can do an episode of it someday!

Gregory Hughes

Off topic, but please continue Melro210 after your break. When you do your podcast, why not include Donna?

Zane Magers

Temple of Doom is pretty problematic, but its so unique, truly worth a re-evaluation. It has many issues, but the Cinematography, the tone, the colors, the action sequences... Its definitely the black sheep of the franchise but its so entertaining, badass, and funny. So many great moments sprinkled throughout!

Zane Magers

The reason I always figured they set Temple as a prequel was because by the end of Raiders Indy had changed. He now knows that not everything is "Mumbo Jumbo" and is with the girl he was always meant to be with. Serials deal with static characters, if Indy grows with every movie it diminishes the serial feel that it works so hard to master. 😁 just a thought I've always had!
