Temple of Doom (1984) - 9/10. My favourite Indy movie thanks to the frenetic pacing, setting and darker tone.

Beyond Thunderdome (1985) - 8/10. Really good sequel that serves as a respectable continuation of Max's desert adventures.

Escape From LA (1996) - 8/10 I like it at least as much as the original.

Octopussy (1983) - 5/10. Arguably the worst Roger Moore-fronted Bond movie. Despite a strong opening, the movie falls apart pretty quickly. And what were they thinking with that ending. Felt like a parody of the franchise.

Glad to seen someone who appreciates Beyond Thunderdome and Escape from L.A. and thinks Octopussy is lame.

Temple of Doom is generally well-liked, which is why I don't feel the need to comment about that. It definitely has it's haters, but it seems more people like it than don't. It is arguably the weakest of the OT for me though.
