It's obvious that the creators are star wars fans and like to slip in references. It's odd IMO tho that they give these lines to Sawyer, Essentially making him the star wars fan, He just doesn't strike me as that kind of guy. I guess tho that star wars is so widespread that just about everyone gets the quotes. btw, the 'red shirt' reference was way before JJ became involved with star trek...A sign of things to come?

Re:23 - that there is lost referencing lost.

There is a complete Raiders 2CD that I released. All the cues are without sound effects.

There was never an expanded TOD release...EVER.

I believe the HD versions of the first two movies were just 720p. I could be wrong.

And I always find it funny when people want a movie "just the way it looked in theaters"...20 years later. Do you really think you remember it?

I love Duel, too many people find it too boring to sit through, which is sad and unfortunate. Honestly by the time you get to the end ever second was worth it. Duel isn't a film, it is an experience

Good point about trilogies. Seriously I would have loved for there to have been a good number of Indiana Jones movies. I am sorry they stopped at three, I would have been in line at the cinema for as many Indy movies as they would be willing to throw at us. But that isn't what happened. They made three and for as long as I can remember there has been a rumor of a fourth. I guess we all kind of gave up on it, then we saw TPM and decided maybe it is best a fourth Indy never happened. I guess the PT just has us all concerned about what this may end up being. Maybe we shouldn't be using the PT as our standard. There is no reason Indy 4 can't be a good movie. While I don't agree that ol' Steven knows no wrong when it comes to movies, I have not personally been a fan of his recent stuff, there is no reason Indy 4 automatically has to suck or even to be the blacksheep of the Indy movies. Thanks Cassidy, you got me looking on the bright side of this.

In America it is common practice to circumcise our sons, but why? You all say you are circumcised and that it doesn't bother you, and it shouldn't. But have you ever wondered why you were circumcised? If you are Jewish or Muslim it is not even an issue, you have your answer, but for the rest of us, why?

has anyone actually ever done a HDtoDVD project with Raiders of the Lost Ark or Temple of doom theatrical versions?

They would be awesome having the 2.0 sound mix and just the original way they looked in theaters without lowry cleanup.

If not does anyone know where you can download them, I don't need a link just a hint for what to look for on google.

Was a HD broadcast on last crusade ever done?

also these files must be like 15 gigs at least.

Has anyone ever captured the audio off the THX VHS tapes ?

years ago they were supposed to release full bitrate PCM audio versions of the trilogy on laserdisc under the THX laserdisc program sadly they were cancelled and never released.

and regardless of whatever anyone thinks on these boards I like the digital audio letterbox laserdisc with CX noise reduction, soundtrack John Willams music has suprising better fidelity on this release over the current dvd one.

Sure the 5.1 ambience is nice and is based on burt's original 6 track but the sound effects tend to drown the music and dialogue out.

And there was no isolated tracks on the dvd's purhaps someone could create one from the expanded cd release and LP for at least raiders. I know film score monthly released a expanded temple of doom cd.

The only expanded last crusade I know of is a bootleg CD. and as much as I like last crusade's music they cheaped out and did not use the LSO like on the first 2 films hopefully on Indy IV they will be back with maestro williams.

Ever heard of a Spielberg film called Duel? Personally I loved it, but plenty of people have described that film as shit. Yes, even worse than Hook. Anybody else seen Duel?

I think by making a fourth Indy movie they are killing the balance. The three movies are great, the second one could be better, but it is enjoyable enough. It is weird to think it will no longer be a trilogy, since that is what it has been for so long. Also Ford it looking a little old. My general reflex about the idea of a fourth Indiana Jones is "NO!" but I think it will be one worth hitting the cinema for. If it sucks just don't add it to your collection. As long as the other three are still around...

Filmmaking is not what it was in the 70's/80's- everything has a different feel to it. Really quick cuts, really glossy feel, and mediocre music for the most part.

I think that unless they make a conscious effort to do it in the old style of the previous ones (and if John Williams can deliver the type of score that he used to be able to) it will be a flop.

Indiana Jones 4 is going to suck, just like the Star Wars prequels.

I'm not sure if it counts, but didn't Young Indy establish that Indy had aged perfectly normally, as he was an old man narrating the events in the '90s?

I always thought Indy and his dad couldn't have been immortal because they left the temple. As the Knight said, the price for immortality was that they had to remain there forever. The other Knight left and died of extreme old age, which is what ADM touched on. Indy and his dad aren't immortal because they drank from the grail, but they could be aging a lot slower... Hence the possibility of an Indy movie in the present day. That would be an interesting idea, but I don't know how well it could be pulled off.

I've wondered about the cup drinking since I first saw Last Crusade. It is an interesting premise. Too bad Denholm Elliot isn't still around. He was classic in that movie.

I'm looking to do some basic movie making with a DV camera. Mostly so I can learn it. Not sure what my options are as far as what good packages (editing, low-level effects, soundtracks, etc) are available. I keep seeing Final Cut for mac, but as always my problem with that is the Macs are so expensive. Would FC run on an iMac vs the Mac Pro? Is there a good WinTel equivalent to the FC studio? Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced camera?

Yesterday I was listening to the John & Ken show on the local radio station... they were discussing having watched Star Wars on television the night before. The hosts commented that the 1977 special effects didn't stand the test of time, and the example they used was -- the scene with Han and Jabba!!!

George, are you listening?

And you've still got the aspect ratios wrong! They're both 1.78:1. On a widescreen TV display, 1.85:1 still has small black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, whereas 1.78:1 fills the whole screen.

I'm a nitpicker for aspect ratios
