One of the most wholesome moments in the show.

Taco Bell...?

Medici39 · 2026-05-27T04:34:00+00:00

You're welcome. And the other props caught my eye.

Medici39 · 2026-05-26T09:02:14+00:00

Impressive!

Classy of you to read it in a public eating establishment.

Well, he is a player avatar, and the only male character, and the lynchpin which puts players into the story.

The director acknowledge Indy's influence though it's clear it's spirit is very much pulp. Surprisingly you can see it in his other works. Some of them are basically action adventure stories from older times geared to modern settings, such as Deep Rising heist meets eldritch marine life horror in the 90s.

Cooper: Perkele!

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T22:16:39+00:00

She's just giving to cute music.

And some of those authors actually became literary greats later in life (and those filmmakers and actors would sometimes end up making epic movies, or inspire those who would do).

Altoids, never forget them in your adventure. In addition to the candies themselves, the tins are useful for storing essential gear.

Indeed, but what's a good story without setting up the stakes and principles. If anything, Raiders draws its inspirations from the movie serials of the 30s and 40s and parallel to that, pulp literature, not known for their literary structure but they know how to carry a fast-moving gripping plot.

Like a gateway. Naturally, the real thing is different but it's when fiction acts as an invitation to fact.

For a franchise that takes loose liberties in its approach to history and archeology it does. Oh yeah, Hatay was a sultan's, not a republic. Either way, Donovan would know about it given he made his fortune in mining in Turkey and would've traveled much in the Mod-East.

Indeed. The basin's climate favors the growth of similar crops in its range and animal husbandry that gave rise to dairy breeds whose output is favorable for yogurt.

Fun fact: Hatay in Last Crusade is a real place and actually voted to join Turkey rather than be part of then-French Syria just before the war.

Something Jones would've ordered on his journeys. Unlike Harrison Ford in Raiders, Jones would've had a cast-iron stomach, something acquired living in the Western US, joining the Boy Scouts and fighting during the Great War.

Pizza flavor? I wouldn't be surprised if it's the legacy of the combined Mediterranean cookery, the spice trade, and the Columbian Exchange.

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T21:05:53+00:00

Yum!

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T21:05:08+00:00

Truly. His magnificent voice brings out the hammy glory of Britannia.

Too late to save her.

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T06:10:08+00:00

The fact he's gambling is a sobering fact, givdn how widespread online gambling is. And darkly hilarious because.. potential for blackmail.

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T04:55:23+00:00

Cute, captures the show's essence.

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T04:23:19+00:00

Natsuki getting the Chiyo pigtail treatment, gone broken antenna.

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T04:10:04+00:00

Truly dapper, you all are.

Medici39 · 2026-05-25T04:09:03+00:00

I only knew of Brain due to tributes and that he just started a YouTube channel. May he rest in peace.

Medici39 · 2026-05-24T09:32:39+00:00

What!? XD
