I’ve never heard anyone refer to Indiana Jones as a “story.” It’s really weird considering that none of the three movies even directly reference the existence of the others.
Indy knows what the Ark looks like in a nod in Last Crusade.
And of course they aren’t literally a single continuous story, but I assumed everyone here is smart enough to figure out what I meant. They are three selective stories from the life of a character, and they all add into a good overall thingamajig.
Huh, just like the fourth one then.
But, like I already said, the fourth is out of place because it occurs after the third, which was artistically designed to be the last one when it was made, regardless of any other scripts that were thrown around in the mid 90s.
“The third one was designed to be the last one regardless of the fact that shortly after it came out they started thinking about a sequel and regardless of the fact that there’s nothing in the movie itself that makes it the last one.”
