Yay, I fucking love Temple of Doom. Its way better than Last Crusade, despite whatever Speilberg tries to claim.
And short round is the best sidekick out of any movie I can think of off the top of my head, which is amazing because kid sidekicks are usually terrible.

Lost world is more middle of the road, but it has its excellent moments, its just a really bizarelly structured movie (it seems to reach a natural ending on the island, then restarts again for an out of nowhere 4th act)

damn would've liked to be there for these but 4am monday morning start time (in Melbourne) will be hard to do with work...

I like Temple of Doom, although it has been awhile (I saw it on a church outing, of all places- the other option that evening was Top Secret). Most of the flack seemed to be that it was a prequel and not a sequel, and people weren't going to give it a pass in certain areas like they did the first.

No-ones (?) yet given a woot for you doing a Jeff Goldblum movie - so let me do that -> yay!!

( though I do hope Godzilla US is still on your todo list ).

Godzilla (US) would actually be a natural follow up, seeing as how its basically Jurassic Park 2.5 (albeit trading Goldblum for Jean Reno)

The TV series had WW I era Germans and wasn't all that loved, so where does that fit in with your theory?

They were Nazis in training. Somewhere in those trenches were Hitler and friends. Hmm... I know the whole point of Young Indy was for him to meet historical figures, but did he ever run into a young Austrian painter?

Any clue as to which movies will be 'dealt with' this weekend. ?

I say just throw up the time, and let the films themselves be a surprise.
