Temple of Doom or Kingdom of the Crystal Skull?

Unlike some people, I don't hate Crystal Skull, but I do far prefer Temple of Doom, which is superb--I'm now beginning to wonder if it's better than what used to be my favorite, Last Crusade...

I really don't like the "beating heart ripping out" cult story of the Temple of Doom & Kate Capshaw's character was annoying as fingernails on a chalk board. I can't watch the movie much because of those things.
I will say that I did enjoy the Bugs/Room Ceiling Crush sequence, the Mine Cart Chase sequence, and the Rope Bridge sequence of Temple of Doom to be very enjoyable... But "three" scenes doesn't compensate for a bad story.
I find Kingdom Of The Crystal to be a more enjoyable film to watch on repeated viewings... However, that doesn't mean the movie doesn't have flaws too...
Kingdom Of The Crystal for me.

Temple of fucking Doom. Anyone who votes otherwise needs their head reexamined.

Temple of Doom is my favorite Indiana Jones sequel.

TOD by a wide margin...Love that movie, even with the few warts it has...Crystal Skull felt slapdash and lifeless, something TOD never does...

TOD. I don't hate the Crystal Skull though. I'll admit that it's worst in the series, but I think it gets unfairly criticized.

Temple of Doom is my favourite Indy movie period. Hated Kingdom.

I'm with you. I used to love "Last Crusade" when I was younger, but have now developed a decent appreciation for "Temple of Doom". And I enjoyed "KOTCS" a lot! Is it the best Indy film? Nope, but it's great fun and still feels like a true Indy film, even with its flaws, which aren't as many as people tend to think.

I was expecting at least the Last Crusade as a contender. Crystal Skull is universally hated.

Crystal Skull made me long for the days when Temple of Doom was the bastard kid of the franchise.

Temple of Doom is not just the better, but the best Indy sequel.

Temple of Doom is flawed itself in a number of ways but it's still better than KOTCS.

Temple of Doom is technically a prequel, and a kickass one at that! Last Crusade followed the pattern of Raiders too much, not that it's bad, but Doom is more original. Crystal Skull was enjoyable, I liked it but don't love it like the rest.
