What if the Indiana Jones movie came out in the early 50's.  Check this cool video out:

That's really cool, though the main reason it works so well is because Lucas borrowed heavily from Secret of the Incas (where the Heston scenes come from).

Yep - and other places too.  I need to do a "Raiders" podcast sometime soon!

I may have to Netflix this one.   The similarities are too -- well, similar :D

I'm watching it on youtube right now at work  ;) (supposedly, it's public domain).

I'm excited about a Rico Raiders podcast!
