Has anyone seen that awesome Duran Duran music video "Hungry Like the
Wolf"? That's an awesome song! Anyways, does anyone else agree with
me that it has definitely an Indy feel? First off, the lead singer to
the band is seen wearing a fedora (it might not be an exact fedora but
it does resemble Indy's fedora nevertheless), the video is set in the
jungle just like in the beginning of Raiders, and there is a bar scene
that resembles Raiders' bar scene, the video was shot in Sri Lanka!
The same location at Temple of Doom!

Also, if you watch the Pop Up Video version of the song, it'll have
the main guy running accross a rope bridge and the pop-up message
saying "Raiders of the Lost Ark grossed....", that helped tie together
my thoughts that it reminded me of Indy. It would have been more
accurate if they said the gross for ToD instead of Raiders (since
Raiders has no rope bridge scene), but I was glad Indy was mentioned
anyways.

Well, let me know what you think guys!!!!!!
