Here's my (basically finished) Jungle Chase with color-correction and added camera-shake (which might be too much in some parts):

Things left to do: Add missing muzzle flash and shortening the Marion/Spalko-stare.

 

Hey Laser,

Overall it looks pretty good. Just a few comments if you're interested...

- I think the scene of Ox saying, "Henry Jones ... JR." has to go. It's stupid and pointless.
- Could just be me but the contrast seems like it might be too high and something looks a little weird with the yellows.
- When Spalko is hanging from the gun and goes to shoot at Marion the second time, Marion delays too long before ducking.
- Spalko's line, "you fight like a young man..." is lame and poorly delivered. And most of Mutt's balancing on the two cars looks bad. You could probably cut directly from his face being cut as he's pulled up with her sword to him knocking her back to him falling back onto his car just before he rams into the obstacle in the middle of the road and nobody would be the wiser.
- I think there's an extra frame at the cut right after Mutt gets pulled up and looks at the monkey.

- Also, there's something very bizarre about the start of the scene where he blows up the tree cutter. He fires and it seems like the projectile hits the tree cutter and explodes a second later, making it seem like the tree cutter was directly in front of them. But when the plate from the cutter flies back down the narrow road towards them it goes through 3 or 4 vehicles before reaching Indy's car which is so far away that when you see the plate coming from their perspective you can't even see the explosion of the tree cutter in the distance. And it doesn't make much sense that he managed to shoot around 4 other vehicles and WAY down the road to blow up the tree cutter (You'll notice I'm not even bothering to mention the fact that there's parallel roads already there for them to use without the help of the cutter). I'm not entirely sure what can be done about this, but it seems like something should be done about it to have it make a bit more sense.

Otherwise it's really coming along.

Take care,
Ryan
