I think just as Lucas couldn’t leave Star Wars alone, he recut Young Indy to make it feel more theatrical, rather than a TV show. Some of the re-edits work but I prefer the way I saw it as a kid.
Combining two unrelated stories into one mini-movie makes the pacing feel really off for me. I also love “old Indy.” He gave the story such heart and developed Indiana Jones’ character full circle about a life well-lived. But I guess Old Indy is probably considered a little “corny”…especially by today’s standards.
