is it me or is the ending of Rounders a bit unexpected? he quits law school and leaves his girlfriend (i guess she leaves him) to become an unrepetant gambler! pretty cool! and the ed norton character disappears!

Your father did *business* with Hyman Roth, your father *respected* Hyman Roth, but your father never *trusted* Hyman Roth--or his Sicilian messenger-boy, Johnny Ola.

"Last Crusade" and "Godfather II"---both the best films of their respective trilogy. Not often the case with movies shown on TV.

Temple of Doom >>> Last Crusade. "Maturity" not good if you're parodying two-dimensional racist serials.

C'mon, "Temple of Doom" was crap. Last Crusade was the only film that was written or directed with any intelligence. And if you're worried about racism, um....Shortround?

No, I LIKED the "racism" and "sexism" in TOD. It was faithful to the genre period.

I'm on Morbius' side with this one, but even if I didn't dig unabashed sensationalism in my serial pastiches, I'd still probably find the third Indy movie a big, joyless bore.

Sorry, can't buy off on that--TOD was a video game put on celluloid. Not my cup of tea by any means; give me LC or even Raiders any day.
