: Yeah, I thought that would be an interesting question to ask. I was 11 when I saw my first Indiana Jones movie back in winter 1993 (I saw the other two in April or May 1994). How about the rest of you Indyfans.

I was almost 11 when I first saw Raiders (when it was reissued during the summer of 1982, a year after its initial release), but then saw the next two as they opened (I was almost 13 when Doom came out, and almost 18 when Last Crusade came out).

Although I have fond movie-going memories for all three films, my fondest would be for Last Crusade (which came out in 1989) for several reasons. One: it came out right as I was graduating high school (an awesome year for me!). And two: that was perhaps the best summer for movies in recent memory (Last Crusade, Batman, Lethal Weapon 2, etc. ... need I say more?). There have been summers before and since that had one blockbuster movie, but '89 was the only year in recent memory that had several blockbusters at the same time. It was a magical time! :)
