amp, you're really out of it! You clearly don't know what you're talking about. Perhaps you're delirious! Last Crusade is tied to the number one spot with Raiders! And that last movie... come on! It's so much worse than all the other movies in the series, but having Shia LeTurd as Indy's son... FAAAAIIIL!!!

I really do love these movies! They're so god damn iconic! Indy 4 Life!!!

Shia LaBeef was horrible, but Last Crusade was.. dare I say... not interesting to me.

Man... I'm... Just... What?

I'm baffled amp! :^O baffled! The crystal skull kingdom is by far the worst of the bunch, simply because they're trying to merge two different movie genres: the adventure movies of the 40's with the UFO movies from the 50's - and they simply don't merge too well...

Well, to every one his own I guess... (is that the saying? =/)

The reason that they did this was because the movie was taking place in the 50's according to Lucas.  It was definitely weird at the end when it became a UFO picture, but I didn't find it any more strange than when the Ark is opened and everyone starts melting or when Mola Ram pulls out that guys heart and it starts beating.  These movies are all in the fantasy adventure genre.  There were no Nazis with their faces melting in those 40's serials so the Indy series was already combining genres.  

By the way, I am not the biggest fan of Crystal Skull either.

I rank the films:

1) Raiders (one of my favorite action films ever)

2) Temple 

3) Crystal Skull

4) Last Cruade

I don't think that The Phantom Menace is the worst Star Wars either.  What do you say about that, sir?
