I've heard people praise the Indy DVDs in comparison to the SW DVDs because there were no changes made to the films, but actually not true. Did anyone else notice that the classic blooper of being able to see the cobra's reflection in the glass in the Tanis tomb was digitally erased. I screamed at my tv the first time I saw the dvd with this taken away.

Speaking of Raiders bloopers, I've searched dozens of bloopers sites, but none of them mentioned a blooper that I first noticed when I was ten (at least I think it's a blooper). It concerns the Staff of Ra. When the old man translates the medallion, he says:

Old man: ...this means six kaddam (sp?) height.
Sallah: About seventy-two inches.

So since 6 kaddam=72 in., then I believe we can safely assume that 6 kaddam=6 ft. With me so far?
Next the old man says:

Old man: 'And take back one kaddam to honor the Hebrew god whose Ark this is.'

So that would mean that 5 kaddam would be about 5 feet, correct?

Well, when Indy finally has the staff, it towers AT LEAST a foot above his head. So either the entire cast of the movie is comprised of midgets, or something isn't right here.

Yeah, I know it's real technical, but amusing nonetheless, especially to a movie freak such as myself.
