My favourite is the film version of the Raiders March that plays in the finale of Temple Of Doom. It's a bit different, and has a real zing.

The end of "The Streets of Shanghai."

Desert Chase.

Honorable mention goes to the sequence leading into the Mine car chase from TOD.

Oh alright, TOD Finale, sheesh.

You obviously don't know this message board well enough. :P

"Flight from Peru." I don't understand the reasoning behind the selections, though.

It's the FattyMcButterpants that's all that I could think of at the moment selection

Mark's mention of the unreleased cue as they get into the mine car is also up there.

None of the above.

I love the little staments of the thematic material.

My favorites are when young Indy receives the hat in Last Crusade and the first one in Kigdoom of the Crystal Skull, as he is taken out of the car trunk.

My favorite of those listed is "Flight From Peru," but my favorite overall is probably during Last Crusade when young Indy escapes the train through the magic box.

Although I also really like the very end of "The Portuguese Coast" as the theme is passed through different sections of the orchestra and lands us safely back at Indy's college.

as far as Indy finale's go, there is absolutely no question that Temple of Doom beats them all, now a short snippet of the Indy theme might be better, but as a body TOD finale is the best.

No, it's the FattyMcButterpants Raiders March in the most important appearances selection.

You don't expect me to list every snippet, do you?

I stand by my seconding of KM's choice whether it's a poll option or not. Something like this should not be pigeonholed. Silly polls. Silly poll makers. ;)

I expect you to list "The German Sub" and "Fast Streets of Shanghai," not "The Pen Is Mightier Than the Sword." Ridiculous!

I can't imagine why this board has a questionable rep elsewhere ...

By the way, I'm not a "poll maker", I'm a person who has started his first poll ever.

I don't know if this is a knock against my fandom or the strength of the statement in question, but I don't even remember which statement of the Raiders March was in "The Pen is Mightier Than the Sword." :sleepy:

As much as I love that transition in TOD, for an entire statement of the theme, I've gotta say that "Flight From Peru" is my favorite of these selections.

Posted

The only thing I remember about The Pen is Mightier than the Sword is that it had a very Battle of Hoth like segment...

I second this post.

I can't place it either

I'm also loving that new variation at at 1:40 - 1:46 of "The Adventures of Mutt."

I love all three instances of it in Dunn and Duffy Circus Train from TLC:

1) Indy's escape from the train.

2) Appearance of the real "Indiana" (the dog).

3) Indy's "knighting" with the fedora and segue to the adult Indy.

Each are so unique and to have them all in one cue is heaven.

Indy on the sub and the young Indy getting his first proper hat.

The former is the best arrangement and performance of the theme ever recorded and that includes the main theme's famous concert arrangement. The music on the submarine is as rousing as and effectively the same as the Superman March heard during the rescue of Lois from the falling helicopter. Both arrangements of the two themes serve the same purpose respectively.

Goosebumps all round.

Yes.

Indy on the sub

Hell yes.

Out of this list, "Finale" from Temple of Doom.
