1. King Solomon´s Mines (1985)
Ripped off: Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Granted, the character of Allan Quatermain has been around since the 1880s, but you have to wonder why, suddenly, in the 1980s they felt the need to plop a fedora on his head, send him to Africa, and spell out the title of his movie in arching red and gold letters. Couldn´t have anything to do with that Dr. Jones guy, now could it? Nawww. Some call King Solomon (and its sequel Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold) deliberate parodies of Indy. Right. And Go-Bots were "parodies" of Transformers.
