If you don't mind me asking, why do you need to know?

I was given a copy of it on another thread to send to Steve when I order my AB. I always send a photo so the hatter knows just what I want. Since then I've looked for it, but can't find it on any Indy sites. I guess I'm just looking because I can't find it...I have found lots of photos and screen grabs, but not this particular photo.

Just highlight the picture from this post and then right click and hit "save image as". It saved it as a gif file for me. You should then be able to attach it to a message.

Yeag that's a screen-grab, it's also the scene where you can see the two guys in the backround to the left wearing modern t-shirts and the duct-tape on the right rail of the bench HF is sitting on :lol:

What's considered "modern t-shirt"? Ya think they didn't have t-shirts back then?

...and I don't know if it is or isn't duct tape, but to me it just looks like the paint got chipped off the bench.

Also, regarding the two guys in "t-shirts", the one on the right looks like he has on a 'shirt' shirt. Just look at his sleeves. However, the guy on the left looks like he stole Han Solo's shirt! ;)

So the production goes to great, expensive lengths to remove all TV antennas from the roofs but they let some dudes in "modern" t-shirts and duct tape into the scene?

You think that got past Spielberg, Slocombe and whoever did continuity?

In my best Fred Willard voice, "I don't think so!"

But it did, sir. There are several errors in Raiders of the like. Another is when Indy and Sallah are walking past the German troops in Raiders right after leaving the Map Room. In the backround on a hill appears to be some crew members in modern clothes. The reason stuff like this was left in was because they didn't have time to reshoot. 3-4 takes then it was on to the next set-up. If it looked good enough and the shot wasn't ruined, then they accepted it and moved on.

^ No kidding? I've seen Raiders literally hundreds of times and that stuff got past me.

Show you how much I was into the movie!

BTW, hope the item gets to you this week.

If you want to find many of the errors, there are several pages of them on the imdb.com listing for "Raiders". My daughter and I watched the movie the other day trying to find all that were listed. I think we found most of them. Of course if you don't want to know, don't look to closely at imdb. You have to click on a link to see all but the first item.
