     Well, just to add my two cents worth to this discussion, I would like
to refute one point someone made comparing violence between the two Indiana
Jones movies. The point made was that the violent content of the two movies
was roughly the same. Maybe so, but the point I would like to make is that
the violent content of Raiders was mostly fantasy(when was the last time
you saw someone's face melt away after openning a magic box?), whereas the
violent content in Temple of Doom was more realistic (like someone else
already pointed out in a previous article child abuse, etc.). For me at
least, it was all of the explicit and realistic violence that turned me off
to the movie.
