Technically Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was the first sequel to Raiders of the Lost Ark as Temple of Doom was a prequel set in 1935 to Raiders 1936. Here are 25 behind the scenes photos from the 1989 classic.

Tasting of  "peanut butter and chocolate-flavored crispy, sweetened 2-grain cereal". The cereal pieces came in the shapes of the capital letters "E" and "T" to spell everyone's favourite alien.

There have been some big comic cons this year, Star Wars Celebration, London Film & Comic Con and of course the big one, the San Diego Comic Con.  But there are still plenty to look forward to this year including Destination Star Trek in Birmingham , UK and MCM London Comic Con .  The crowds will be huge but the guest line up will be too.  If you're thinking of attending one of these events here are my top five handy tips to get the most out of these events: 5 - Get There Early Get to a comic con as early as possible.  Especially if you have an early photoshoot.  Most of the time the doors open at 9am and photoshoots can start as early as 9:15.  Turning up ten minutes before is a sure way of you missing that first appointment with your favourite guest.   Get there at least two hours before to guarantee an early entry.  If you do turn up late and have a photoshoot ask a member of staff if you can be fast tracked through. 4 - Do Your ...
