Forrestal<\/strong> (?-1936) was a competitor of the archaeologist Henry “Indiana” Jones, Jr. (1899- ). He was good. He was very, very good.<\/p>\n

On June 12, 1981, Raiders of the Lost Ark<\/em> was released in theaters. It was rated “PG”, which stood for “Parental Guidance”. The basic idea behind this MPAA rating was that parents should be ready to provide guidance for any offspring that might be negatively affected by the film. When things get too “scary”, it’s time for a parent or guardian to step in and say “it’s only a movie.” Which it is. It can in no way physically or mentally hurt you, and anyone who tells you differently is an escaped lunatic.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That’s the way it\u00a0was<\/em>. Parents didn’t raise picket signs when a movie frightened their kids. They told them not to be silly. IT’S ONLY A MOVIE. What do you mean, you’re “gonna have nightmares”? You’re being ridiculous. You know what? I’ll think twice before taking you to the movies next time.<\/p>\n

In 1936, Indiana Jones was in Peru, hunting a golden fertility idol. He begins filling a bag with sand, and tells his porter Sepito that this is where Forrestal “cashed in”. All we know of Forrestal is Indy’s incredibly vague description, but we get the hint that he’s been a thorn in Dr. Jones’ side for some time. His name is even a pun: fore stall<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Carefully making their way through the trap-filled temple, Indy and Sepito encounter a passageway lit by a sunbeam. One of the greatest things about Indiana Jones is the inherently dad-like way he protects people. “Stop<\/strong>,” Indy barks. “Stay out of the light.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

This is a classic Indy euphemism, like “Don’t come up here<\/strong>” from\u00a0Temple of Doom<\/em>. When Harrison Ford gets like this, you know things are\u00a0extremely bad<\/strong>. The next level is\u00a0WEE ARE GOING TO DIE!<\/strong><\/p>\n
