This was a tough choice, all 3 are excellent, the new movie is gonna have some big shoes to fill. I think Raiders beats out Crusade by just a tad. Love the fight with Indy vs the big bald Nazi dude. The truck chase scene was also classic.

I picked Raiders of the Lost Ark. I remember the first time I saw it the end where the ghosts come out of the ark scared the heck out of me.

I chose Crusade because it tied in nicely (if not completely erroniously) with my interest in The Knights Templar

Raiders of the Lost Ark, but The Last Crusade is a close second.

Crusade just by a bit over Ark. Hopefully the next one will equal the quality of these adventures.

Been a long time, I like Crusade and Raiders, but not the Temple that much. So I'll take Raiders.

Can I vote for the Raiders parody on the Simpsons? With Bart escaping Homer? No? Oh well...

:P

I'll vote Raiders. I don't think I've even seen the others.

I don't think I have either. When I was a kid, my uncle had loads of movies (I don't think all of which were obtained quite legally), and Raiders was the one he showed me. I've always been meaning to get to the others, and have seen parts of both, but never really gotten around to it because I'm just so darned lazy.

I fully agree with you. Temple of Doom was nowhere near as good as the two others, its only redeeming point was HF's pecs. He was in great shape in that movie, and deserved to be shown without a shirt. :naughty3dg:

Yes, Sean Connery probably actually stole the show more than Ford in Last Crusade. His dad was pretty crazy and funny indeed :)

I like them all and am looking forward to the fourth one -- but, my all-time fav is Raiders.
