#66 Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

#66 Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Indiana Jones: Snakes.  Why'd it have to be snakes?

Raiders is, of course, a classic.  The first in the Indiana Jones series.  Indy (Harrison Ford) is an awesome character, a professor of archeology/treasure hunter, and there are so many iconic things and moments in the movie: The boulder, the snakes, the whip, the fedora...the list goes on and on.

I do have to say that this is not my favorite in the series, which I think is considered sacreligious, but I really liked Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade best.  They're all good, though, really, with the exception of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (The woman in Raiders always annoyed me, and I wasn't happy to see her reappear, and it was an all around ridiculous movie).
