Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark is WILD!! 

As a child, those melting faces were horrifying. As an adult, they're horrifying! Lol

27:30, Sallah is that type of friend we all want to have. Wait til you see all of the adventures he and Indy get up to in the later films.

13:44, This scene for me is why Indy is so beloved as an adventure movie icon. He doesn't have superpowers. He isn't some special forces operator. He is a regular guy who just lost the woman he loved. This is such a low point for him that he doesn't even care about the mission anymore. Marion is dead and he doesn't know what to do with himself. Sallah's kids not only saved him from Belloq and the thugs in the restaurant. They saved Indy from himself. With the reminder of Salleh's friendship Indy found the will to keep on fighting.

It's a real plane... A Yankee Clipper... great to get to places without large airports but large bodies of water. Long range, comfort... great plane.

12:47, originally Indy and this swordsman were supposed to have a seriously involved fight. However, on this day of location filming, Harrison Ford was seriously ill with an intestinal issue that kept him running to the bathroom. Ford didn't feel physically up to filming such a long drawn out duel, so he asked Spielberg "Can't I just sh00t the guy". They liked the idea and that became this hilarious scene.

The fly did come out of his mouth but George Lucas had it edited out so it looks like he ate it😂

Yes Harrison Ford did look different 40 years ago. Lol

Because you talked so much about the who would eat the poisoned date that the monkey eventually ate, you missed the important dialog about why the Nazi's were digging in the wrong place. It is because the true headpiece had data on both sides, but the Nazi who got the image burned into his hand only had the image of one side and missed the "correction".

In the Jewish bible, YHVH gave the Israelites a series of commandments and instructions for building an Ark so that he may dwell amongst them. He would sit in the Mercy Seat on the cover of the Ark between the two sculpted Keruvim (English Cherubs). These keruvim had wings and were, if Babylonian culture is something to go by, lions with human bearded heads. The word “keruv” in Hebrew means “near”. This was a connection between YHVH and his people. At one point, two Israelites touch the Ark and become fried.

The cobra was very real. Only a piece of plate glass was between Indy and the cobra.

These movies were made with a sense of comic books in mind. That’s why all the punches have that certain sound to them

I'll do my best to offer a few explanatory notes about the ark. The first and most important thing to know is: It was never a "super-weapon". In the Old Testament, the Ark of the Covenant was meant to carry and preserve several artifacts from the desert journeys of the Israelites, including the tablets of the Ten Commandments. It also served a locus for the presence of the God of Israel, an object whereby He promised to travel with his people in a somewhat tangible way. Most of the time, it stayed in their Tabernacle (tent of worship), and later in the Temple after it was built. While they were still wandering, it was carried by the Levites. Sometimes, when God commanded them to do so, the Israelites would carry the ark into battle. That was meant to signify, both to them and to their enemies, that God Himself was going to fight with them. The ark had no power of its own -- rather, it represented God being present with His people in battle, and fighting on their behalf. And in those cases, God did perform awesome acts of power through the ark; one of the most famous examples was the siege of Jericho, Israel's first major victory in the promised land. However, Israel had to use the ark only as God directed. Occasionally, they fell into the trap of thinking that God was tied to the ark, and that they could manipulate Him into fighting for them by simply carrying it with them. When they did, He found it necessary to correct them -- in one such instance, He allowed the Israelites to lose a battle, and let the ark fall into enemy hands. So in this story, Hitler and the Nazis made a serious error by thinking the ark was some kind of weapon, which they could use however they pleased; Belloq calling it a "transmitter" or "radio" wasn't much better. In the scene on board the sub, you saw how the Nazi insignia was burned off the crate that held the ark. I see that as a warning sign from God that He wasn't on their side, and He wasn't about to let it be used to fight their battles. But they didn't pay attention, and dared to try looking into the ark (another mistake that the Israelites once made). That's why God sent those spirits (I think they're supposed to be angels), and destroyed all of them. Only Indy and Marion were spared, because they showed God the due deference, and refused to join the Nazis in looking into the ark. I hope this explanation makes some sense.

Here's an interesting bit of trivia, the actor at the beginning who pulled a gun on Indy and wound up with the poison darts in his back, is the same actor who plays the wicked Egyptian with the eyepatch.

The Arc of the covenant is supposed to hold the tablets of the ten commandments. Another supposed to be powers of God or angels depending on your interpretation of the scriptures in the Bible

I think the "i was a child" was more of a dramatic thing. If it had been 10 years, and we are going on the actress's age, she would have been like 19/20 and Indy would have been 28.

So the big guy that indy meets. My mums mum knew him as she worked in a casting agency. Was apparently a very nice guy. Had a Birmingham accent.

Yes the plane is real

Harrison was also in another George Lucas film, American Graffiti

1. When he picked up the medallion, he didn’t realize it was scaulding hot. A burn takes a moment to settle in. He jumped out the window because it was closer than the door, which was an inferno.

one of my favorites growing up, still got em all on VHS. Cant wait for the next reaction!

The last scene demonstrates the power of God. The fire is holy fire and the Nazis are judged by God

🤣🤣🤣 "his..... urine squiter" and the clip of Tom (the fish from SpongeBob) had me rollinggg. Thanks you for making my birthday better ❤

Harrison Ford's stunt double was stunt coordinator Terry Leonard. He deserves a definite mention.

'...so he could find it, from the hand.' +++ for the prediction.

You missed George Harris, the captain of the ship that got intercepted by the sub. He had a few notable roles but was Kingsley Shackelbolt in the Harry Potter movie series.

26:10 "Oh his...uh....urine......squirter." That is one of the best lines I have heard on this channel. I nearly hyperventilated.

Watch the rest of the movies even Dial of Destiny! You won’t have an opinion until you watch all of them.

Fun fact, the Nazis actually did this. Starting in 1933, the Nazis sent out teams of archaeologists to parts of Europe, the middle east, South America, Africa, and the Arctic looking for biblical and Norse artifacts with presumed power.

Hello Justin & Jane!😊 What! Neither of you guys have seen this? Have you guys been living in a Canadian cave? Wait, are there caves in Canada? Never mind, just kidding.😉Good prediction about the burnt hand, Justin.😉 This film was in the style of the old action serials they used to show in theaters. So, the way it is dated is actually intentional, even for the 80s. These were in theaters until the 1950s. They would show one chapter each week in the theater, usually with a cliffhanger so you would come back. Great reactions to this classic film, See Jane Go Team!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏

36:09 - An unsolved cube raises my hackles.

Yes, see the next three Indys for sure, but I would avoid the last one, The Dial of Destiny!!!

The ending's probably simpler than you think. The Ark brings victory to those who carry in battle but only if you're on God's team. The Nazi's are evil and therefore offensive to God so instead of victory they incur God's wrath by possessing the Ark and are killed.

*Part 2 to this one is the one that came out in 2008. The next one is a Pre- before this one.*

Great reaction. On the matter of the fly. At this time film was actual film and professional actors would not "waste" film by messing up because it was expensive and mistakes could affect the cost of production. A key component in actual film is silver, hence the "silver screen". This is also why you don't get blooper prior to digital recording because actors tried so hard not to waste film. With digital recording is unlimited so actors messing up isn't looked down upon. Just a bit of trivia. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

"Urine Squirter" was the name of my punk rock band in college!!!

When Indiana and his sidekick were shooting the spider scene they were covered with male spiders. The spiders were completely lethargic which was a filming problem so they came up the idea to add a female. She had an effect. All the males went nuts trying to mate with her!

*Transcript of brain storming session with Lucas, Spielberg, and the writer:* Lawrence Kasdan: I like it if they already had a relationship at one point. Because then you don't have to build it. George Lucas: I was thinking that this old guy could have been his mentor. He could have known this little girl when she was just a kid. Had an affair with her when she was eleven. Kasdan: And he was forty-two. Lucas: He hasn't seen her in twelve years. Now she's twenty-two. It's a real strange relationship. Spielberg: She had better be older than twenty-two. Lucas: He's thirty-five, and he knew her ten years ago when he was twenty-five and she was only twelve. Lucas: It would be amusing to make her slightly young at the time. Spielberg: And promiscuous. She came onto him. Lucas: Fifteen is right on the edge. I know it's an outrageous idea, but it is interesting. Once she's sixteen or seventeen it's not interesting anymore. But if she was fifteen and he was twenty-five and they actually had an affair the last time they met. And she was madly in love with him and he... Spielberg: She has pictures of him.

Witness, Regarding Henry, Presumed Innocent, Patriot Games, and Working Girl are great movies with Harrison that depict his range. Also his new show with Jason Segel called Shrinking is great.

My father loves Harrison Ford very much and he likes to see him getting so serious and pissed! but Indy was a great adventurer.

The Big Bang Theory has a funny bit about this movie. Sheldon loves it and show it to Amy. When asked if she liked it, she said, " it was good except for the major plot problem." They argue but the gist is Indy doesn't affect the outcome at all. If he didn't go after the ark the Nazis would have gotten the medallion, dug in the right spot, got the ark. They were going to that place on the island to "test it" for the Führer. Except for killing a few people and burning down Marion's bar he didn't do much. Even at the end he was supposed to get it to a museum instead it ended up in a "Warehouse 13" (awesome tv show btw) type of place. You were wondering if you were watching the first movie. Each movie is a stand-alone film. The second movie does happen chronologically before the first. The rest goes in order. There is a young Indy tv show. I never watched it.

For me, recognizing Doc Ock only came after seeing this film again after watching S2 decades later.

_"I was a child. I was in love. It was wrong and you knew it!"_ ― Marion She was 16; Indiana was 26 helping her dad, when she fell in love 😘

At the time this was filmed there where I think only two of those sea planes in existence and neither was flyable. I believe the scene at the dock was shot with a partial wing, body and 1 engine.

One thing I only just noticed: on the map showing their arrival in Cairo, it shows "Palestine" and "Jordan". One problem: Jordan didn't exist in 1936. It wasn't created until 1946.

I love your reactions! ❤Keep it up!!

Mixed feelings about knowing the context of the 'oh, he ATE IT!' in the preview segment. Update when confirmed... and, I was right. I'm not sure I remember noticing that back in the day.

Elderly potheads, why did it have to be Elderly potheads

First one released but the second in chronological order.

Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤

Nicht stören - do not disturb. Those funny guys from the Wehrmacht 😂 In the canyon scene at the end where they catch Indy, one of them yells in german: freeze this is a robbery

Tom Selleck was supposed to be Indiana Jones, but Selleck had done a Pilot (Magnum, P.I.) & the pilot was picked up. & Under contract Tom Selleck was obligated to do the show if it was picked up. So he had to back out of Indiana Jones & go do his show. They had already started setting up shooting, & needed to replace the lead actor at the last minute. They didn't 'want' to use Harrison Ford, but he was available & could drop right into the part without training. Gotta go with what you have...

The ark isreal and still exists as does the grail ....which ive held .....no words

"His urine squirter" lmao

I recommend you the entire franchise, "Trust me"!

That kind of dress can ONLY be worn properly without a bra! The only drawback to the dress is having to sit on that darn bow every time I had to sit down!! 😉😉👱‍♀👱‍♀👗👗👠👠❤❤ I always love imagining being a damsel in distress like Karen was during this movie!

My parasocial family 🫶. Not watching the reaction coz I have a phobia for snakes but I’ll leave a like. It’s been 6 long days. 😢Love y’all. Much love to your family ❤

Do these guys think the title of this movie is literally "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark"?

The bodies were suck into the ark

Three allusions or hidden references to Islamic symbols and beliefs in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UN06MSGISr4.html

Sorry,it is not Gimly it is Salluh

Godzilla Minus One when?

sea planes are real

It is the ark of the covenant, the Hebrews carried it before them into battle. God went before them appearing as a pillar like cloud during the day, the color of fire play at night. It was to house the spirit of God to go with them. Later when the Hebrews built a tabernacle for God. The ark was placed in the holiest of holies within the Tabernacle. As writers do mini artistic liberties were took.

also a TV series

You know why Jane and JV are such great reationers?.... Even though they are adults with children, it AMAZES me that there are folks out there that have not seen movies like this...AS MOVIE REACTORS... they seem like children to me..doe eyed... I'd really like to enjoy these movies again for the first time again... you don't want to know how many times I've seen theses movies over the last 40 + years.. THANKS JV AND JANE! I Love you guys...

2 Justin

Could you and Jane react to the Prince of Egypt, please? This is my favorite DreamWorks movie.

Y’all need to watch The Librarian

Please You can react to "form paris with love 2010" the actors are John Travolta and Jonathan Rhys Meyers. ❤❤❤

Are you guys Will react for movies death wish Charles Bronson.

The warehouse is area 51

🐍

How the f*** do you not know who Harrison Ford is lmao!!

Why you guys missed Transformers Age of Extinction part review?

Do some research and read the Bible (Old Testament) and what the Ark of the Covenant was. Back in the day, everyone understood where it came from and what it was all about.

The more I see and enjoy your guys’ reactions I can’t but think that maybe Jane is autistic in some way? Anyway excuse my ignorance, you both are great haha I just see Jane over react to some things quite a lot which makes it funny cus she really is immersed and the way she calls out for Justin/JV, so cute ☺️ lol

Indiana and Marion are ten years apart. He was in college and she was a minor. I understand that they love each other, and yet their circumstances raise some red flags. "I was a child! I was in love! It was wrong and you knew it." "You knew what you were doing." 🚩🚩 "FBI! OPEN UP!"

If Indy just stayed home, the result would have beeen the same.

This movie is a lot of fun, but something that ruins the movie: Indiana Jones doesn’t add anything to the movie. If you take him out the story doesn’t change at all

Hell yes snakes why it’s has to be snakes 🐍😎 1981 classic movies 🎥 4 years old will always remember this one 🥹❤️‍🩹😎
