As someone who's never seen them, please write a brief summation of your feelings about the Indiana Jones series.

Agreed on Mick. That movie was huge and he's of the age where it was right in his wheelhouse.

They seem like they'd probably be kind of fun to watch, I guess.

I'm largely basing this on having played at least one of the LucasArts Indiana Jones adventure games.

Top Gun
Toy Story

I don't know if these are big, but my wife can't believe I haven't seen them. Maybe my age (39) makes it odd that these never crossed my path.

The Princess Bride
That movie where John Cusack holds up the boombox.
Sixteen Candles
That weird fantasy movie with David Bowie.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I just never ended up seeing it when it was big, and I haven't had any desire to seek it out in the years since.
