I can't believe I didn't see this in the theater when it came out. The U of Iowa campus theater has a print of the film, which they run on occasion. It's pretty beat up, but it's better than nothing.

Favorite moment from this sequence: the reveal of Alfred Molina after he tries to make off with the idol.

Favorite trivia for this movie from IMDb: To create the sound of the heavy lid of the Ark being slid open, sound designer Ben Burtt simply recorded him moving the lid of his toilet cistern at home.

Wrong blog bitch.

What girl? What sister?

Lois Lane in the 1978 Superman - played by buck-toothed Margot Kidder.

the girl in Raiders - looked much like the girl in Superman

did you think so?

Yes, quite a beginning. Inspired two whole generations of amazingly disappointed archaeology freshmen.
