The hell you will. He's got a two-day head start on you, which is more than he needs. Brody's got friends in every town and village from here to the Sudan. He speaks a dozen languages, knows every local custom. He'll blend in, disappear, you'll never see him again. With any luck... he's got the Grail already.
CUT:
Does anyone here speak English? Or even Ancient Greek?

Love that scene.
But, disappointed that Brody's character disintegrated a bit from the first movie. I love the scene in Raiders where the federales visit the college when Jones and Brody explain the Ark to them. Brody is a bit more intelligent and self assured in the first film, and a bit more comic relief {edit →} in Crusade.
Still, a great scene.
He still is intelligent and self-assured. Look at the scenes in Venice in which Brody comes to conclusions about what Henry Sr. knew and how to piece together the map and link it to Alexandretta.
Brody, however, is not a field man. He is a scholar and a thinker. A man of books. Put him into a globetrotting adventure (or even let him navigate his own museum) and he's a bit out of his element. He'll pull through eventually, but it won't be a very elegant effort.

the tone of last crusade is much more comedic. Marcus is reduced to a bumbling bafoon for the sake of a few jokes. Another reason I dont think that much of TLC.
shareCrusade is no more or less "comedic" than the first two. One of the many charms of Raiders is how it combined 30-40s pulp fiction type action, adventure, drama, romance, WITH humor. All three films are rife with it.
shareI agree, all three have comedy but with Crusade it just seems like the whole tone of the movie especially after Connery appears is comedy barring the ending of course. Raiders has jokes throughout but never loses its serious side, and Temple´s comedy is offset by how much horror it has.
shareTemple has gore, not horror. And even the gory bits are often there for humour's sake. Like the dinner scene, the bugs. The first sacrifice scene was the only scene which was completely without humour.
As for Crusade, that too fits the description, "never loses its serious side". Not even after Indy finds his dad. It is careful to remind us of the main theme before the humour goes too far:
"The quest for the grail is not archaeology. It's a race against evil. If it is captured by the nazis, the armies of darkness will march all over the face of the earth."
That's just one line, but the entire dialogue there was entirely serious. Henry slapping his son's face for blasphemy was a reminder, not just to Indy but to the viewer as well, that it's not all fun and adventure. All subsequent non-action scenes - except at the very, very end - are serious. But the action scenes, in turn, have lots of humour in them.
Yes love that scene, it’s hilarious!
I often find myself thinking of this scene. Great writing.
Haha, yes. That line of dialogue and cut to the following scene was so funny.
The "no ticket" scene is also pretty funny.
This would've been a better movie, if Indy had actually been correct in his assesment of Brody's capabilities. Think of Brody as an 'elderly ninja' of sorts, blending in seamlessly into any surrounding or culture, and the názis never being able to find him.
"Brody of the Jungle"
I'd watch THAT movie.. (too bad they were not near any jungles, though)
Jumanji: Brody of the Jungle.
