I unabashedly adore Temple of Doom. Raiders is objectively the better movie, but I actually thought Temple did the best job of evoking the non-stop nature of the actual serials. The way Spielberg and Lucas were honoring these old pulp films and shorts and filtering them through their own sensibilities with a big budget and impeccable level of craft feels almost like a precursor to what Tarantino would eventually do with Kill Bill. That's sort of the mission statement behind all the Indy movies but Temple feels particularly "balls out" in a way I don't think we'll ever see from Spielberg again.
I am very happy with Temple's Blu-ray, which looks accurate to the original palette and does not carry any of the controversy that Raiders does with its revamped color timing.
