We went and saw this movie on opening day. I am a huge Indiana Jones fan and hoped that this movie would live up to the other two (remember, episode two wasn’t so good). Did I like it as much as they others? Well, it was much better than two, but not quite as good as one and three. Harrison Ford is a little older (ok, much older), but Shia Labeouf does a pretty good job.

I hear that they are going to make two additional movies with Shia playing the lead role. I don’t know if he can take Harrison Ford’s place, but if the story line is good the movies might be well worth watching. I am now trying to find some Target coupons so that I can buy the original three without spending too much!

Here are some Indiana Jones facts you might not have heard about:

Here are some Indiana Jones facts that you might not have known:

1. Tom Selleck was offered the leading role first, but couldn’t get out of his Magnum, PI contract.
2. Sean Connery, who plays Indiana’s father in the third film, is only 12 years older than Harrison Ford.
3. Harrison Ford was not feeling well when they shot the famous scene where he shoots the man with the big knife. There was supposed to be a long fight scene, but Harrison decided to ad lib at the last moment and just shoot the guy.
4. The horse Harrison used in The Last Crusade was the same horse used in Rambo III by Sylvester Stallone.
