The classic pre-streaming conundrum. If the Raiders of the Lost Ark disc isn't in its case, how long would it take for me to find it? Not too terribly long, actually, but it only presented a new problem: where is the Ghostbusters disc, because it's not in the Raiders case...
Oh well, that's a problem for 1984.
In the midst of a ridiculous run by Lucas and Spielberg, this movie is cool. Harrison Ford is cool. Karen Allen is cool. Nazis are so not cool.
The setting of this movie combined with the 80s effects makes for a magical mix that helps this movie avoid feeling terribly outdated, to me anyway. That magical mix is aided by John Williams, who is on his own ridiculous run.
Perfect pacing, seriousness, silliness, and scares.
