I know that I can't be the only one who views The Temple of Doom as kind of a disappointment. Raiders of the Lost Ark was one of the greatest films ever; flawless in nearly every way. Then, along comes the sequel in all of it's Kate Capshaw-ness, and... you know the rest. You can't trade in the coolest, hard-drinking-est, most badass woman on the planet, Marion Ravenwood, for the most annoying damsel in distress that cinema has ever known. Best way to ruin a sequel ever.
It was still a good movie, don't get me wrong. A lot of it has to do with a villain that will rip your heart out and show it to you while you're still alive. That's hardcore. Indie takes on Mola Ram, his most gruesome nemesis, here in this Sideshow sculpture. This beautiful scene of awesome vs. evil stands nearly 17" high and is as impressively detailed as you'd expect from a Sideshow piece. The pre-orders just opened last night and if you head over you can reserve yours for the low, low price of $299.
