Look back at the posted clips here..http://www.killermovies.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=478733&pagenumber=7
Indy takes out more guys in less then 10 minutes then McClane did in the entire first movie.
Look at the convoy chase scene. Starting on horse back with out weapons. Indy takes out a car, a truck, a motorcycle, and a squad of soldiers.
Near the end of said scene he gets shot and keeps going. The closest he gets to medical treatment is a field dressing. When McClane gets shot or seriously injured he leaves in an ambulance. Not Indy.
As for complaints about Indy's soppy romance scenes. At least he never had a teary eyed hug scene with another man like McClane did with Al.
Lets get back to number though. How many guys did Hans have 12 or so, how many did Stuart have 10-20 maybe, Now Simon had a goodly number(but how many did McClane take out), Gabriel again had handfull(maybe a platoon size at best). So Indy more or less took out more guys in the convoy scene then McClane did in any indivual movie. Heck Indy took out 5-6 guys with one bullet in moments. Mind you thats something like half the number of guys Hans had so Indy did in seconds what it took McClane half a movie to do. In other words if one of them can take on Armies its Indy. How do we know this. Well because he has. It also means Indy is far more of a "killing machine" then McClane. They is a very serious chance that Indy killed more people in Raiders then McClane has in all his movies put together.
I'm sure you guys will ramble about how McClanes enemies are tougher with out really showing any evidence, but it makes no difference. Everything McClane does would be a day at the office for Indy.
Heheehehe you were right to sense to facetiousness.
In reality McClane would have died in the attempt against those numbers in that setting.
But obviously the third reich would be less a Hitler and maybe a couple of officers too, before the exchange was through, as McClane doesnt collaborate with the enemy like Indy.
Nice to see that you are still rambling about an alleged ramble.
I like that ironic quality of about your humour, dude.
Nah. Indy would have been f**ked in the 1st DH on the roof, when he needed to try to let the outside world know the building was taken over as his knowledge of Police frequencies on modern hi-tech radios... modern weapons... Indy wouldnt have known what that hockey puck looking grenade was until it had gone off....so he would have died in the computer room in the fight-for-the-detonators battle.
Hell even the hi-techness of the building would have mess indy up, Im sure.
Not to mention he is too elderly to have made it through the rigorous test that is the Nakatomi scenario. Karl's brother would probably have mowed Indy down as soon as Indy came out to surrender/collude, believing Karl's Bro about all that "Come out my friend, you might as well come and join the others...." stuff.
