@Rp_Dub @STARBURST_MAG Here’s the thing. Indy rarely wins a fight outright in Raiders. He is saved by an external force time and time again. Marion, Sallah, rotor blades… until eventually Old Testament God steps in. Very clever foreshadowing. Something the other Indy movies lack.
@johnstell10@TobyonTV It’s so hard to guess what went wrong here. Shane Black at the steering wheel. Great idea in that these guys are the broken biscuit PTSD squad instead of The Best Of The Best seen in the 1st film. I’m guessing studio interference?
@Rp_Dub @STARBURST_MAG Indy fails to do right by Marion as many times as he is saved by an external force at the climax of a fight. It all tied up perfectly in the finale. Plus, exploding head in a PG! What a movie!
@Rp_Dub @STARBURST_MAG On the “Indy doesn’t effect the outcome of Raiders” thing. Indy’s journey is to make amends to Marion. To finally put his love for her before his passion for archeology, ultimately saving her life. Leaving the Ark in the hands of “fools” but going for that drink. A classic.

#MyFirstJob was at a video rental shop. Accused of stealing Double Impact and the cost of the video was to be taken out of my wages. Double Impact. I quit, not because of the money or false accusation, but because they thought I would steal Double fucking Impact.

@realeverywriter I was challenged by Hawkings’ A Brief History Of Time. Try as I might, my tiny wee brain couldn’t wrap itself around the concepts therein. Or, and I am prepared to concede this, it was actually completely beneath me.
Them: Ransomware is the biggest threat to all companies!
Me: Okay.
Them: The government should step in!
Me: You mean like subsidizing security services or...?
Them: No, we need a national firewall!
Me: Wait...
Them: And national content management!
Me: ಠ_ಠ
@JamesMelville It’s almost like the right in the West want to do what Russia & China do and have just had the perfect situation to edge closer to that arise.
