: I don't remember what the music for the series was when it first came out - but I did notice (after watching three last night), that 90% of the music was all three movie soundtracks SLIGHTLY modified. At first, I thought this was kinda cool - it kept Indy's future exploits in mind - but after awhile it did get annoying, or maybe a better word is distracting - instead of being caught up in the story all the sudden I'd say "Hey! That's from ToD!" Or, "Last Crusade!" How does everybody feel about that? Also, was the music changed for the release, or is it the same music from the television run????

It doesn't really bother me. As a matter of fact, it tends to help acheive the feeling of continuity between all the films, whether the trilogy or the YIJC series. Remember the weatern "The Magnificent 7"? That music score is in every verson of that movie they ever made using that particular story line, and no matter how good or bad the story lines were, at least they SOMEHOW tied together simply due to the same music themes. It sure didn't save the bad ones, but you still had a feeling of what they were TRYING to accomplish. Regards. Michaelson
