oh....my.....god.....
on 7/17/2009
Love both movies but, Indiana Jones hold a special place in my heart
on 7/29/2009
Well now this is just silly. What sort of God would allow such suffering?
on 8/22/2009
Two all time greats, but Raiders was the ultimate adventure movie.
on 8/28/2009
Hard question. But I go with Raiders.
on 10/25/2009
I'm really surprised that Back to the Future has so many fans. The script sucks, the characters are flat, the scenarios aren't funny, and it is rather mean-spirited at times in a shallow kind of way. RAIDERS is just so much more likable, the writing/filmmaking so superior, and so much funnier, too.
on 11/10/2009
Back To The Future wins in my opinion.
on 11/28/2009
Raiders... Just
on 12/3/2009
Raiders of the Lost Ark was surprisingly fun, given my hatred of all things involving George Lucas, and nearly all things involving Harrison Ford, but Back to the Future is a veritable classic. Hands down, Back to the Future.

I have always been disappointed by the climax of "Raiders." Why this is, I can't say; I have just always felt that way. Conversely, "Back to the Future" builds momentum every step of the way toward its resolution, and so it feels more rewarding at the end for me.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is higher in my Top 20 than Back to the Future, but I take BTTF over Raiders.
on 3/9/2010
Raiders Of The Lost Ark is my favorite Indiana Jones movie and Back To The Future is my favorite of that series... so it's really hard to choose. I have to go with Indiana Jones though in the end, just an amazing movie and Harrison Ford is iconic as Indy.
on 6/23/2010
I'm not a big Indy fan... But I'm a big BTTF fan, easy pick for me.
Raiders is the bigger rush. I love Harrison Ford as Indy.
on 9/10/2010
Love both, but Indy is a rollercoaster ride!
on 1/16/2011
toughest one yet.
on 10/27/2011
I like both quite a lot, but I'd be lying if I said I loved either of them as much as a lot of other fans. I could go either way here depending on my mood. I'm feeling more Indy than Marty at present, so "Raiders of the Lost Ark" gets the nod.
on 12/12/2011
Raiders without question, I love BTTF though.
on 3/3/2012
BTTF used to be my number 2 movie, but after thinking about (my love for) Raiders again, it's now my number 4 (behind Se7en). Both are outstanding though.
on 4/12/2012
Back to the Future, just. Both are epitomes of the word adventure though. Fantastic films of the '80s.
I'd have to go with Indy. Back to the Future was an awesome movie, but I think Indy holds up better.
on 4/13/2012
This is very close two all time CLASSICS though Back to the Future wins by a hair.
on 9/4/2012
i prefer last crusade and temple of doom so it's hard to me the best Back to the futur or the weakest indiana jones ( in my opinion ). The weakest indiana jones isa still better than any back to the futur so there i go !
on 9/18/2012
Raiders of the lost ark ...
on 11/2/2012
Raiders of the Lost Ark probably.
on 12/18/2012
Raiders, but not by much.
on 1/22/2013
BTTF!
Back to the Future for me
on 1/27/2013
Both top ten in my books. Indy is my hero though.
on 1/30/2013
back to the future is very good, but raiders is great.
on 2/5/2013
Back to the Future. Raiders is great and exciting, but not up to par of the brilliance of BTTF.
on 2/9/2013
Raiders of the Lost Ark simply doesn't appeal to me like it does everybody else; I thought the script was ridiculous, the directing poor and the action unexciting. However, Back to the Future, I like as much as the next guy. It's got a hilariously original story, executed wonderfully. BttF is the easy winner, here.
The script RIDICULOUS? The action UNEXCITING? The directing POOR? Whaaat. Give it a rewatch, man. Otherwise: http://tinyurl.com/afhbacw

:P
on 4/22/2013
Farkk! I dont know??
on 9/7/2013
Raiders of the Lost Ark. Both of these were adventures worth taking with huge payoffs. Raiders is probably more consistently entertaining, but BTTF is one of the all time greats. Not much can compete with Raiders though.
on 10/24/2013
Sorry Indy, but Back to the Future wins over Raiders any day!
on 11/27/2013
Both definitely top 10( or even top 5) movies, BttF for now
on 11/28/2013
NOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO, Raiders is too good to be toppled
Yeah, Raiders never lived up to its reputation. It's not a bad movie by any means, but it's not even the best movie in the Indy series (Last Crusade wins in a landslide). Whereas, Back to the Future lived up to and surpassed expectations. Back to the Future is an easy winner for me. I simple cannot love Raiders like most people.
iSeth, give it a re-watch, when i saw for the first time in years, I realized how awesome it actually was.
Danielod, I did. I saw Raiders for once when I was pretty young, around 9 or 10. I was too little to be impressed back then, so last year I rewatched it at 16. It didn't get any better. Not that it's a bad movie, it just simply isn't as amazing as its reputation. The Last Crusade is everything I was expecting Raiders to be.
on 12/7/2013
iSeth, I am so glad the seemingly intrinsic affinity of Raiders eluded someone else besides me. BTTF for me.
on 12/29/2013
raiders need just a little more to be at the same place as BTTF and empire
on 7/23/2015
Raiders is more rich and complex. Back to the Future is just funny.
on 7/24/2015
Nice matchup. Love both, but I gotta go with Raiders.
on 12/11/2015
Both In my top 20 greatest films ever made list but Back to the Future is so original funny and the characters are more likable and even at times more despised than any other character in Raiders besides Indy! Back to the Future wins a close call!
on 10/31/2016
Back to the Future is one of the funnest films I've ever seen.
Gotta go with BTTF...but that's such a tough one...
on 8/26/2017
Two brilliant blockbusters from the 1980s that are classic movies today. BTTF has a very smart and witty script and rememberable characters and casting. Although, Raiders is more inspiring to me personally and the better made film so I will give that the win.
on 10/15/2017
Raiders !
on 12/3/2017
back to the future crushes raiders.
on 12/15/2020
back to the future, but I love both and they are both in my top 20
on 1/9/2022
Back to the Future has a better pacing in my opinion, but Raiders is too iconic. Indiana takes this one.
on 5/7/2022
Raiders is simply more iconic
on 10/25/2022
I think I will go with the best of the 80s
on 10/26/2022
Both are some of the best movies of the 80s, Back to the Future wins
on 4/16/2023
Raiders is just more fun
