No.

Oddly enough, no matter what anyone says about it, the movie still exists.

And I don’t even think it’s that bad. A couple of fanedits make it halfway decent actually.

I mean, I certainly think it’s worse than any fanedit could fix, but that’s opinion. Ultimately it’s a completely unnecessary extension to a story that very clearly ended in 1989.

Oddly enough, no matter what anyone says about it, a sequel existing does not mean it fits into the original story, nor does it mean I have to include it with a viewing of the trilogy, hence the word trilogy.

“Original story” is a weird phrasing to use considering it’s not one coherent narrative and actually three separate stories but okay.

Actually, you just said you watched those movies. No mention of “series” or “saga” or even “trilogy”.

I didn’t say it in my post, but the series is frequently referred to as the “Indiana Jones Trilogy.”

I’m just saying that it makes any criticism of “missing one” even more wrong.

Raiders could very well be a standalone too. Just like Star Wars. Both of those very clearly ended in 1981 and 1977, respectively.

Anyway, I quite like KotCS, except for the parts I think are gross.

Huh, just like ESB was a completely unnecessary extension to a story that very clearly ended in 1977.

JEDIT: What Collipso said. Raiders too.

“Original story” is a weird phrasing to use considering it’s not one coherent narrative and actually three separate stories but okay.

It’s three episodic stories that make up a whole story of sorts, despite subtle errors in continuity. That story very clearly ended in the third installment, thus a fourth installment is out of place chronologically.

But the Star Wars sequels were a meaningful extension, will a culmination of events and a clear ending to that overall story in 1983. The same goes for the Raiders sequels.

I’ve only skimmed this, but what argument are we even having here? Is somebody saying that KOTCS is good? I’m lost, but don’t think I will hesitate on the reports.

Dom implied that I should’ve watched Crystal Skull and I said no because the series was intentionally ended with Last Crusade. Then he tried to contest this assessment without acknowledging the fact that the film wasn’t supposed to exist until Ford and Lucas felt like pursuing another installment in the mid 2000s.

The only reasons The Last Crusade “must” be a trilogy capper are

  • the title is Last (but the following word is Crusade and not Adventure or Movie or whatever so it doesn’t even matter)

  • the final shot is a literal ride into sunset

Just because KOTCS ain’t great doesn’t mean Indy’s story is inherently a 3-part one.

Also the Indy films were a three film contract from the get-go. Lucas told Spielberg he had two extra scripts ready so he would okay it right away, and at the completion of the third film, the series was retired, with the things coffee repeated being artistic choices Spielberg used to convey the end of the series.

Lucas also wanted sequels to Star Wars, albeit without a strong plan.

That’s not true, they were kicking around a fourth installment for a lot longer than that.

Of course everyone knows that the Star Wars series has reached a clear end with The Last Jedi.

I was unaware. When did those plans start? Late 90s? Because I seem to remember Spielberg saying that he wasn’t told about their desire for another outing until like 2002 or 2003.

There were scripts being written in the 90s I believe. Don’t have my making of book on hand, unfortunately.

You could at least make a joke that makes sense.

It does if you actually read the post he quoted.

I get “the Last” part now, but I don’t remember there being a sunset shot. 😉
