: Somebody else on this forum said it best samo time ago: The so-called "Indy" of YIJC didn't seem anything like the man in the films. Instead, Lucas & Co. turned him into a dumb, sniveling twit who goes traveling all over the world to meet historically famous real people like some sort of globetrotting Forrest Gump. I wouldn't pay too much attention to YIJC or the books, if I were you. I doubt that Lucas will when it's time to write the script for Indy IV.

TO TRULY UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTER AND PERSONALITY OF INDIANA JONES, ONE MUST WATCH THE YOUNG INDIANA JONES CHRONICLES. THE YIJC WAS THE BRAINCHILD OF GEORGE LUCAS (EVER HEARD OF HIM?) IN WHICH HE HOPED TO SHOW INDY'S ENTIRE LIFE ON FILM. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND INDY'S LIFE IF YOU JUST WATCH THE 3 MOVIES. FOR EXAMPLE, INDY'S RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS FATHER IS A VERY COMPLICATED ONE. IF YOU JUST WATCH "LAST CRUSADE", THEN YOU WILL REALLY BE LOST AS TO WHY INDY AND HIS FATHER ARE CONSTANTLY QUARRELING AND WHY THEY HAVEN'T TALKED IN 20 YEARS.
YIJC EPISODES LIKE "WINDS OF CHANGE" HELP THE VIEWER UNDERSTAND THE COMPLEX FATHER-SON RELATIONSHIP. THE SAME HOLDS TRUE FOR HIS LOVE-AFFAIRS, FRIENDS, AND -- MOST IMPORTANTLY -- HIS INTEREST IN ARCHAEOLOGY!!! I COULD GO ON BUT I WON'T.
