Yeah that's cause Cameron didn't make 3 and 4. So they weren't as good as 1 and 2.


Did you know that the small canyon that they used to film the scene of R2-D2 getting zapped by the Jawa's in Star Wars A New Hope, was also the exact same canyon where Indiana Jones tried to hold up the Germans with a Panzerfaust and rescue Marion and get the Ark of the Covenant in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
