    I loved all the Indiana Jones movies. I mean, who doesn’t love Harrison Ford? National Treasure was another good one. I need to watch the other movies that I somehow missed along the way.

    National Treasure is one of my favorite movies. I have seen it a bunch of times and it never gets old.

    Gods of Egypt perfectly goes with the heading of the article, though I haven’t seen any of those movies except for Indiana Jones in bits, I would love to see them with some popcorn on a Saturday night.

    I’ve seen most of these movies, and I saw the original Mummy movies. Adventure movies are my favorites!

    I’ve heard of several of these but Indiana Jones was my speed, I’ve seen them all, I’m now introducing old movies to my 12 year old. It has made memory lane a lot more fun.

    What a great roundup of films. I loved National Treasure when I was a kid (and I’m usually not a Nicholas Cage fan!).

    Wow, I just don’t get it. Is this connected to the original? Why did they name is the same as the the good one from the early 2000’s? I loved the first one!

    I watched the Mummy. I love the fact that it’s not that scary. I want to try your suggestions.

    I love movies like this. I have seen a lot of these. Gods of Egypt is one that I have to check out yet. I am thinking it will be good, too.
