Isn't it really irritating when people use the subject line to type their whole freaking message, then at the end of it, just put NM, thereby forcing us to read their message without giving us the freedomto decide whether or not we want to click on that particular one? I for one would rather they use the subject for just that, and put their reply, even if it is just a few sentences in the text box. or do you have a problem with that too? (nm)

: : Here's an idea. Instead of changing the name of THE greatest movie of all time, so that it can sit alongside two inferior sequels and a dozen or so inferior made for television movies... We should change all of those to accomodate the first and best of the series.
: : Let's face it, "Indiana Jones and the..." is kind of cumbersome (dorky) It is self-referential, and that is never a good thing.
: : However, what if we changed the name of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom to "Raiders of the Temple of Doom". Or we could go a different direction and call Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade "Raiders Episode 3--The Last Crusade." Oh, wait, I forgot. All of the YIJC stories would be the earliest episodes, I guess we would have to refer to Last Crusade as Episode 25, or something like that. Probably better to just call them all "Raiders of the..." "Raiders of the Mystery of the Blues" "Raiders of the Battle of the Somne" "Raiders of the Hawkmen." So maybe it doesn't always roll of the tongue...since when has that mattered.
: : One final note...We need to change the name of this forum to Raiderfan Forum. After al, without Raiders of the Lost Ark, none of this would ever have happened. We should show our support for the original by giving it the lion's share of the credit.
