The Rocketeer is the best possible successor to Indiana Jones

Here is a nostalgia trip that is both better than you might remember, and genuinely wonderful. To revisit The Rocketeer, directed by journeyman filmmaker Joe Johnston, is to step back even further in time than to the early 1990s. The film’s hero, Cliff Secord, may not initially suggest an analogue to Dr. Henry Jones Jr. He’s most at home at the airfield where he first discovers the jetpack that gives him the power of flight in ways that even his prized Gee Bee plane can’t. Cliff would probably be lost in one of Indy’s archaeology classes at Marshall College, but his daring, adventurous spirit and thrilling transformation into a makeshift hero in the Golden Age Of Hollywood fit right into the ethos of the first three Indiana Jones films.

The Rocketeer takes place in Los Angeles in 1938, the same year as the events of The Last Crusade. The fresh-faced and guileless Billy Campbell is Cliff, who lands in the crosshairs of the FBI, mobsters, Nazis, and even Howard Hughes, all in the span of 108 minutes. Though Cliff and Indy come from different backgrounds, their shared willingness to take the risky move in a moment of peril posit them as being cut from the same pulp-hero cloth. The Rocketeer was adapted from the comic books of the same name by the late Dave Stevens, who was himself inspired by Commando Cody, a character from the Republic Pictures cadre of serials; Indiana Jones, concocted by George Lucas and Spielberg, was inspired by serials they loved as children, specifically those from Republic Pictures.

How To Transform Delicious In-N-Out Burgers Into Crazy Delicious Egg Rolls

Over the past 67 years, In-N-Out Burger has given its customers on the West Coast (and in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Texas) a lot to be grateful for with its iconic standard and so-called secret menus, but there is one item that you won’t find on any menu at any location, because chef Josh Elkin just invented it.

Just. No.

Insanely great tee from the good folks at @the7line. #LGM

The only downside to this shirt is that you can’t wear it in October. Ever.
