Raiders of the Lost Archives - 1919-1973

submitted by gaffa

Montreal-based movie buff StooTV has put together a loving homage to Raiders Of The Lost Ark and the cinematic tradition that Steven Spielberg’s epic adventure pays tribute to and draws from. The brilliantly titled Raiders Of The Lost Archives is a “shot-by-shot comparison of Raiders of the Lost Ark vs. scenes from 31 different adventure films made between 1919-1973.”

The amount of research that went into this 13 minute ode to Indy and his predecessors is impressive to say the least.

StooTV will be posting a list of the films that appear in the video soon. So revisit his Youtube channel in the next few days.</br><strong>Dangerous Minds</strong>

Great clip. I'd be willing to be that Spielberg was heavily into those adventure movies as a kid and had a mixtape constantly going in his head that he used to make Raiders. As opposed to blatantly lifting ideas from old movies. I guess it's probably a bit of both.
