Pulp novels from the turn of the century?
: I'm sure the 30's serials were also ripping off something too, right?
: : Was Lucas and Spielberg paying homage, or ripping off, Saturday Morning serials of the 30's and 40's, when they were making 'Raiders'?
: : : Well, that puts everything into perspective...:P
: : : : : Dude, Steve was a kid when Hogan first hit the big screen as Dundee, how is he a rip-off? But I do admit, I was disappointed that they didn't put a Steve Irwin joke in CD: In Los Angelos
: : : : Dundee came out in, what, '86/'87? I think Steve is pushin' 40; at that time he would have had his roadside croc-wrestling show. It was more of a sarcastic joke than anything. I just get tired of everything having to be an "Indy rip-off" when Indy himself, no matter how much we love him, is a rip-off.
