Man, I just don't get it. I'll admit I haven't seen some of those films in a long time, but why do people put Raiders, Matrix, and LOTR on such a high pedestal? I haven't seen Wrath of Khan or any Terminator so I can't comment on those, but The Dark Knight is the only film on that list that I think holds up even close to Empire. Maybe I just need to rewatch those films, I mean as a kid I didn't appreciate Empire nearly as much as I do now(ROTJ was my favorite, followed by Episode 3 as a kid). But some of those i've seen recently, like Fellowship ... I always appreciate what LOTR does way more than I enjoy it, I don't think it's really that amazing as a blockbuster, it's kind of bloated and it's more so a success as an adaptation and a "wow they could make this?" than as a movie. Matrix is just so meh, Raiders isn't even the best Indiana Jones, that's 3, and it's not even a contest it's by farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr the best movie in the Indiana Jones series. I also remember the 2nd Indiana Jones doing much more interesting things than the first, tuff that really caught your attention.

Those films are put on a pedestal because they're good and well done. 

I watched The Matrix the other day on TV, it still kicks the crap out of virtually any modern day blockbuster but seeing it in a theater in 1999 was something else. 

I guess, I just think they're boring as fuck, except maybe the first Indiana Jones, which is still way worse than the other 2.
