This has included cracking into the DVDs of the trilogy (wherein I was surprised to realize that in all these years I’d never watched Temple of Doom, but yet seen Raiders and Last Crusade dozens of times), rekindling my childhood crush on Karen Allen (she’s still got it, even at 56, I don’t care), reading WikiPedia (who knew the journey towards Indy 4 was so difficult?), and stumbling upon dozens of reviews and interesting articles leading to Thursday’s release of the fourth Indiana Jones adventure.
The most interesting article thus far? This scrap from a supposed Q&A with famed composer John Williams. According to the article, before writing, Williams actually comes up with song lyrics for each of his themes, and writes the appropriate music, knowing that they’ll never get heard.
