Top 10 Ways Indiana Jones Saved the World : #3 (find #1 and #2 here)

3) Meeting Karen Allen’s Marion Ravenwood

OK, again this may not have “saved the world” but Marion Ravenwood is amazing, and I would argue the most amazing thing in The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. As many big blockbuster Hollywood pictures continue to degrade women and proliferate stereotypes, the latest Indiana Jones gave us a woman (an older one at that!) who didn’t put up with Indy’s crap and was tough enough to fight on her own most of the time. Her spirit lights up the screen and illustrates how women should be portrayed more often.

Here’s an interview with Allen:
