• Indiana finally makes up with his father.
  • "Don't call me Junior!!!"
  • "No ticket."
• And of course, Henry Jones, Sr. gets his own.
  • "I suddenly remembered my Charlemagne. "Let my armies be the rocks and the trees, and the birds in the sky!""
    • For context, Henry Sr. defeated a Nazi fighter plane with an umbrella and a flock of seagulls.
  • Telling the Nazi colonel "It tells me that goose-stepping morons like yourself should try reading books instead of burning them!"
  • He takes down a Nazi soldier in hand-to-hand combat with nothing but an ink pen, and then blows up an entire truckful of Nazi soldiers.
  • Also a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming, but "Indiana. Let it go."
  • Doubles as a Crowning Moment of Funny (and possible Squick) but "She talks in her sleep."
• This moment:

Indiana: Two selfless martyrs... Jesus Ch- (Henry slaps him hard) Henry: That's for blasphemy.

• Indiana Jones on a horse vs. a tank and three trucks all full of Nazis. He tricks the tank into running over one of the cars, stuffs a rock down the side-cannon's barrel, jumps onto the tank, fights the Nazi Dragon, shoots three Nazis in one shot, throws the gun down to his dad so he can kill the Nazis in the tank and blow up the other truckload of soldiers (all while still getting beaten on), falls off of the tank into certain doom, gets back on anyway, chucks his best friend off the tank, saves his dad from being run over by the tank while the Dragon is still breaking ribs, manages to get his dad off of the tank, and manages to jump off himself just as it falls off a cliff taking the Dragon with it. And of course afterwards when everybody thinks he's dead, he climbs back up. Made even more badass awesome, by the fact that just before he realizes, "this tank is going off a cliff and I need to get the $#**% off", his trademark fedora gets blown off in the wind and we think "Oh no, is this the end?". Then when he gets back off the cliff, bruised, bleeding, and for crying out loud just plain exhausted, with a look on his face that says "Hey, you guys go on ahead and find the Holy Grail without me, I'm just gonna lie down and die", his fedora blows back onscreen, he gives it a look, and resolutely puts it on and goes to join the others. Maybe Hitler declaring war on him wasn't such of an overreaction after all.
• Those crazy Knight Templar's booby traps. When will they learn that you just can't get rid of Indiana that easy?
• Hey Indy, I bet you can't joust on a motorbike with a flagpo- NO WAY!!! Well, I bet you can't jam a flagpole into one of the Nazi biker's tire's and flip it ove- WHAT THE %$@*#!!! THE MYTHBUSTERS SAID THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE!!!
  • Indy rejects the Mythbusters's reality and substitutes his own. How, you ask? By being INDIANA-FUCKING-JONES, that's how!
• Basically the fourth movie can have all the special effects it wants, but the third movie still owns.
