    Just a reminder that Indy isn’t a “good guy”, punching Nazis is one of his few good characteristics. He’s a childremoved and a terrible archaeologist who steals peoples cultural artifacts bECaUsE tHeY BelOnG iN a MUsEum

      Lovable Harrison “crashed my plane into an active commercial airport multiple times, including landing on taxiways instead of the actual runway, putting multiple other people at risk of horrible death, just to satisfy my own Hollywood induced God complex” Ford!

      Maybe that nickname needs some shortening though…

        Yup, it’s referenced in the first movie, Marion was 15 and Indy was in his late 20s when Indy takes advantage of her

        It’s pretty blatant, Marion says “I was a child! I was in love! It was wrong and you knew it!”

        Indy then blames her, saying “you knew what you were doing”

        Pretty sure there are interviews where Lucas or Spielberg wanted her to be even younger yikes-1yikes-2yikes-3

          Lucas did. Spielberg talked him up to 15, but both agreed they wanted her to have been young, “promiscuous”, and “she came onto him”.

          I’ve often said Lucas is about as close as you can possibly get to being a good billionaire…and that conversation about how they created Marion’s character should tell you all you need to know on how far that actually gets you.

        Marion in the first movie was a child when he first “met” her. libertarian-alert

        Spielburg and Lucas discussed making Marion even younger than that but after drinks and laughs decided not to. libertarian-alert
