Indy returns to exploit, er, pillage, or uh, exhume the Temple of Doom!

Will & Jared do their best to discuss the much derided sequel Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, but can they stay on topic? Is the film as bad as it's reputation suggests? Is the new love interest a shallow and offensive female character that was even criticized by the actress that portrayed her? Is there dark subtext behind this film's meaner aspects due to two of the creators going through break-ups? All these questions and more answered in this episode!

Beginning next week, Debaser will be taking a detour from film so there is no homework. Although Jared may be preparing an argument for Last Crusade being his favorite Indy...
