Me too. It scared the bejeebus out of me when I was a kid, although I do kinda like the opening scene, even with the uber-offensive "Mistah Jones!"
Last Crusade has to be the best. Period. C'mon, the Connery-Ford chair-together scene is just all kinds of awesome.

Last Crusade. Sean Connery FTW. Raiders of the Lost Arc would be my second favorite, though, and while I didn't hate Temple of Doom, it's certainly not as good as the other two. Last Crusade basically had the best chemistry between the characters, not to mention the best mix of comedy and action.

Of the first two, I liked Temple of Doom as a kid because I was better able to follow what was going on -- and Raiders and Last Crusade somehow miss the charm of having a child protagonist helping out Indy.
Therefore -- Temple of Doom for the win. ^_^

I've heard a lot of words tossed around the Temple of Doom film. "Charm" is definitely a new one.
Last Crusade. Easily. Indy's dad is awesome. Raiders of the Lost Ark was an excellent movie, and Last Crusade refined and perfected a lot of what Spielberg and Lucas did in the original. But Dr. Henry Jones (senior) gave it the necessary leverage to be truly amazing.
Temple of Doom was fine, but is unnecessarily dark. I don't have an issue with darker films, but it ruined a lot of the mood of Raiders before it.

Last Crusade. Raiders of the Lost Ark is great too, but not quite as good, and Temple of Doom was okay but I absolutely hated the creepy, demonic sacrifice scene (even now) and the main woman, she screamed far too much and too loudly.

Oh, Willie?
Yeah, she failed. Bring back Marion Ravenwood.

Ravenwood was my favorite Indiana Jones ally. Her and that fat Arabian guy. Whatever his name was.

Wow... I'm actually surprised by the poll so far. I was thinking of course everyones gonna say Raiders, everyone always does. I'm usually in the minority when it comes to this and say Last Crusade is the best. But it is IMO. Raiders is fantastic but sorry, Crusade wins hands down for me. I was on the floor dying the first time I saw it I was laughing so hard. The part where their tied up in the chairs together still cracks me up.
Temple of Doom is cool. It was the first Indy movie I saw but I remember being quite scared by it (the pulling out the guys heart freaked me out). I was 10ish at the time and do believe I was a wee bit scared to go to bed that night. I didn't like it back then but when I saw it again, it wasn't that bad. But it doesn't hold a candle to the other two.
Oh and correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the lady who played Willie Steven Spielberg's wife? (or lover or mistress or whatever they have in Hollywood these days) I thought I heard that a while back.

My fave part of last cruasade was...and always has been
[spoiler] when they're on the durigable (sp?) and indy throws the guards out the window in front of all the passengers. Then he turns to all the staring faces. He looks at them then at the window and says "No ticket". Then all the passengers grab their tickets to prove that they have them. XD [/spoiler]
Unfortunately I don't remember the chair scene. ;-;

Since I was a kid, Temple of Doom has always been my favorite because it was the most thrilling imo *__*.
I remember when my mom bought all three VHSs when McDonalds was actually selling them there (I remember that's where we bought them from XD) with a great deal. We still have all the VHS tapes to this day

My favorite part in Last Crusade can be summed up in three words:
"He chose poorly."

Last Crusade gets my vote for Sean Connery and for being a classic of the genre. They honestly don't make 'em like this anymore, and it's a shame.
