‘Indiana Jones’ Spectacular

With Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny out in cinemas, the Letterboxd Show crew mounts a Four Favorites debate to determine once and for all which of the previous four Indy crusades is the best overall, which one has the best puzzles, and which is the horniest! Slim punts for Raiders of the Lost Ark (“No one has ever lost a debate speech by saying they love seeing Nazis explode”). Gemma is all in for the PG-13 horror-show that is Temple of Doom (“It’s freaky!”). Mia has only love for Last Crusade, and Mitchell is the president of the Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull admiration society.

Plus: that singular, torn-off sleeve, why Paul Mescal’s Gladiator workout is nothing compared to Ford’s shredding, why Slim sees himself in Temple of Doom’s Willie Scott, Spielberg as the ultimate ally for rats, Gemma and Mia thirst-riding the Disneyland Indiana Jones ride, and why Dial of Destiny is great for mathletes like Mitchell.
