Love that part and I love this movie !

I think part of what makes that scene with Indy so great is how throughout this entire movie, we've seen Indy outnumbered, betrayed, stranded, imprisoned, tortured and brainwashed, with all these children enslaved and tortured right in from of him and being unable to do anything about it.
It's the first time we see Indy finally able to retaliate, and I think by that point in the movie Indy's expression is exactly what the audience wants to see. He's done playing around, he's gonna kick some @$$ for what they've put him, his friends and those kids through.
Can't be too careful with all those weirdos running around.

YES! This is my favorite movie scene EVER.

Here is this famous shot :

That may very well be my favorite moment in the whole series as well, either that or the opening of the Ark, I wonder why Spielberg went in a different direction when he made Last Crusade a kiddie film?

I think most, if not all, of

's criticisms are justified, but that is a great moment.

Love that moment, one of my very favorites of the whole series.

Its such an awesome scene, i just watched the movie again after a 3 years or more, and i was thinking the same. The scene on the bridge is great too. I like this movie although it has its faults.

@artist457 It's the same look that Harrison Ford gives when he's being interviewed:

Best scene in the movie: starting with a dark Indy silhouette then it pans in illuminating his face with a 'you're beep expression. Just Awesome.

Hate? Check out the rankings on imdb and RT. People love Doom and hate Skull. Doom is considered as classic. Skull is considered as one of the weakest sequels in movie.history.
Don't forget: If you really love Indy- you must hate Skull.

To the OP: The shot you're referring to might be my single favorite shot in all of the Indy movies. It's just perfect.
I never realized until recently just how much hate ToD gets. Maybe it's because I saw it through the lens of childhood, but I love it. Of course, I also love Crystal Skull (and I continue to insist that if we saw it when were kids, the way we saw the rest, we'd all agree). But I'm not here to start an argument!

I don't get the hate either. It's the most entertaining Indy flick. I almost think some people hate it just to be part of the majority.

Neither do I. I've always liked it, but I spent a number of years considering it to be the weakest of the first three. On reflection, I'd have to put it at #2, after Raiders.

Great scene indeed. Don't get the hate for this movie.

I've always liked that shot. The look on Indy's face basically says "You ****ed with these kids. You die." Very cool.

I think also that what you're referring to is summed up in this iconic poster:

The artist is Bruce Wolfe, not Drew Struzan as is sometimes reported.
Read some of this commentary about the poster.

And by transitivity they must be talking about the moment in the movie that it represents.

It's on of the most unique scenes in cinematic history. I think it saves that movie from being "too dark".
