Mola Ram is my favorite, but I got a lotta love for Toht.
I love this guy too. His entrance in that scene where Marion is with Beloq with the entire hanger thingy is hilariousMola Ram is my favorite, but I got a lotta love for Toht.
Raiders
Doom
Crusade
Crystal Skull
I always thought Toht was underused (perhaps the only real gripe I have with Raiders), but he definitely comes through with the little screentime has.
Though he has less screentime than Belloq, Toht's still probably the most memorable villain in Raiders. Mainly due to his death scene. Sure, the other Nazis went out more or less the same way, but Toht's face melting is an image that's stuck with me since I was a kid.
Same for me, the ark wins it. Then the Sankara stones, the crystal skulls and last the holy grail.On another similar note, what's everyone's favorite artifact in the series? Much as I'm a huge TOD fan and think the Sankara Stones were cool, I got to give it to the Ark. How can you not love a relic that contains ghosts that melt your face as soon as it's opened?
I prefer the supernatural to the straight up sci-fi, myself. I really had no problem with the monkeys or the fridge.
"He chose poorly"
The Holy Grail is the best relic.
Such an important lesson for our money chasing society.
I'm just as surprised today as I was in 2008, with this whole, "We'll accept ghosts and demons and the Holy Grail, and the voodoo possession, and guys getting their hearts ripped out and yet they're still alive, jumping out of an airplane with a raft that isn't inflated yet, stones that glow orange, being chased by a giant ball in a cave...
... but aliens? Nope, no sir. We won't have it. This movie doesn't exist to us."
