A s with every

Indiana Jones film, the Wilhelm Scream makes an appearance. Indy and Basil Shaw climb up the roof to escape the Nazis on the train. Here they are having a back-and forth with a few soldiers. The classic scream is heard when Indy pulls a soldier off the edge of a train. The scream is a classic sound element that has been used in a lot of movies, but most importantly, all the Indiana Jones films and all of the Star Wars movies.Lance of Longinus

D uring the opening action scene, we learn that Hitler is having his army round up significant religious artifacts as he believes they contain power he can use for his own purposes. The artifacts from

Raiders of the Lost Ark, and The Last Crusade are examples. They are searching for the Lance Of Longinus. This is believed to have been the spear that pierced Jesus’ side as he was crucified. Indy reveals it’s fake when he inspects it. Indy has looked for the spear in the past, even though it’s not canon. In a Dark Horse Comic Series set after the events in The Last Crusade

Indy and father search for the famous spear to keep it from the Nazis. In the comics the spear is lost, but it’s said to have been found by the Nazis when American troops took over Germany. In this new movie, we see that he feels the same way. He mentions it a few times, that the Dial of Destiny belongs in a museum. Helena is different. She wants to sell everything she finds at the highest price. The Nazis want it only because they think it has great power. As usual, the Nazis are right. He starts to threaten everyone with his classic whip. Everyone gets tired of it after a few cracks. This is the reverse of his classic scene in Raiders Of The Lost Ark, where a swordsman puts on a big display before Indy just pulls out his gun and shoots him. It’s the opposite of the classic scene from

Some of the injuries include being shot, beaten and forced to drink Blood Of Kali. This is The Temple Of Doom. He was given blood to drink which temporarily brainwashed his mind. Indy continues to say that he had to deal voodoo. Luckily getting his heart pulled out of his chest wasn’t one of the injuries.Where Doesn’t It Hurt?A fter Indy’s quick trip through time, we see him back in his apartment. He is still recovering, but is angry that Helena won’t let him remain in the past. Marion enters when he asks for whom he must stay in the past. He is astonished when he sees her. They get some time to themselves after everyone else has left. Marion says that she was also hurt by their falling out. Indy asks Marion where it doesn’t bother her, and she plays out the scene from Raiders Of The Lost Ark in which they finally kiss. What a way to end the series. What easter eggs did you notice in
