: This was interesting, a little too interesting

: #1: Everyone knows Lucas co-produced it and also wrote the dang thing and all(no surprise there)

: #2 Raiders of Lost Ark: The plane on the beginning(Jocks) has the intitials OB-3PO, One of the heiroglyphics supposedly has 3PO and R2-D2 on em, At the end when Belloq disgustingly swallows the fly is also where they filmed the Beggars Canyon scenes

: #3: Temple of Doom: The beginning scenes nightclub is called Club Obi-Wan

: #4: At the end when they say "We named the dog Indiana". The surprising thing about this is GEorge Lucas' dogs name is Indiana, and they modeled his dog after Chewbacca.

: #5: Most of the people who played in Indiana Jones also played in Star Wars. Like on Crusade, the guy who played Hitler played Admiral Ozzel.

: Interesting fact not having to do with subject: ON A TV SHOW PREVIEW THEY SHOWED THE PLACE WHERE THE TEMPLE IN THE CANYON WAS IN LAST CRUSADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You forgot to mention the canyon that was used in Raiders when we see Indy with a bazooka aiming to the Ark, it's the same canyon that we see in A New Hope (SW), where Luke meets Obi-Wan....
