One problem was that with 'Raiders,' they had a good idea and THEN they found the money. With 'Temple,' Paramount said, "Here's some money, now all we need is an idea." Then, after 'Temple' did okay, they got really smart. They said, "If they can make movies THAT good with $20 million, heck, we'll give 'em $48 million for a third one!" 'Last Crusade' cost more than double what it cost to make 'Raiders.' Is it twice as good? You tell me.
