Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, 1999-11-25 Too bad George Lucas doesn't think the DVD crowd deserve this great movie. Maybe for the same adle brainedness that Braveheart cannot be seen on DVD. Indiana Jones, (any in the series)are some of the best action films available. Just imagine...GEORGE.....in Dolby 5.1 or DTS

WOW! WIDESCREEN + REMASTERED = INDIANA AT HIS BEST, 1999-11-08 When I truly noticed what I bought, I was super excited! To view these movies through Lucas' and Speilberg's eyes is magical. It was like watching them on the Big Screen once again. My wife and I had loads of fun watching them. One special extra is the labeling of them in chapters...puts things in a time perspective

Gift set gives plenty of bang for the buck., 1999-11-08 If you're going to get all three movies, get this giftset. You get 4 videos (including a Young Indy video, Treasure of the Peacock's Eye) for less than the price of the 3 Indy movies bought individually. IMHO Sean Patrick Flannery can't hold a candle to Harrison Ford, and it is because of TotPE that I only gave this 4 stars; but it's still entertaining and worth getting. It's essentially a free bonus anyway, so why not?Of course it goes without saying that this is one of the best film trilogies of the past 20 years, right up there with Lucas' Star Wars. I just watched Raiders this evening - my first time seeing it in years, and the first time EVER in widescreen, since I missed in the theaters. There's truly never a dull moment. Ditto for Temple of Doom, which I watched -- also for the first time in widescreen -- last weekend. And for goodness sakes, get the widescreen edition. Spielberg, Lucas & Co. went to the trouble to release a widescreen edition so you can see the movies as they were meant to be seen (i.e. without nearly half the picture hacked off)...get it so they can be assured their effort was worth it. I was glad to finally see Raiders and Temple of Doom in their original format, and I noticed plenty of things that would be cut out in the "pan and scan" version. One that comes to mind is in Temple of Doom, in the mine car chase, there is a wide shot of the two tracks...in a pan and scan version, one of the tracks would be out of the picture. The ads are right...adventure does have a name, and it's Indiana Jones.
