 Ramesses II: Anatomy of a Pharaoh: The Military Leader
On these walls we are, repeatedly, almost like the high budget advertisements of our modern society, treated to scenes of the king vanquishing the enemy and thus fulfilling his duty to defeat the forces of chaos and preserve ma'at.
In fact, some battles depicted by later pharaohs, were actually campaigns of earlier kings whom the current pharaoh wished to emulate, while others depicted kings such as Amenhotep III and his son, Akhenaten smiting enemies when in fact they probably never personally participated in military actions at all.
Just as the Egyptian temple walls were a fortress against the chaos of the secular world protecting the peace, or ma'at within, so too were Egypt's borders.

I always hated that the kids would almost never make it through the temple, and that the prizes were really shitty, even for the early 90s.
The temple was cake if you had ever seen the show before and all the miny challenges leading up to it were mostly easy as well.
The temple looked pretty darn tiring, though, especially if you're one of the stupid kids who goes the wrong way and has to climb up or something.

 Where There's Smoke | Cinematically Speaking...
Jonestown is a documentary/oral history of The People's Temple which achieved its greatest following in the mid 1970s in San Francisco before moving to the utopian community of Jonestown in Guyana and, on November 18, 1978, committed mass suicide by drinking cyniade laced punch.
The wealth of archival footage shows People's Temple as joyful celebrations of love of brotherhood, earily similar to Glide Memorial Church, a paragon of San Francisco's religious tolerance.
That the San Francisco site of the People's Temple (now a post office) was about 1,000 feet from the theater made it all the more horrifying.

The "Holy," into which only the Kohanim were permitted entry, was the scene of the more "refined" elements of the Temple service: the lighting of the Menorah, the burning of the incense, and the displaying on the Table of the "showbread" eaten by the Kohanim on Shabbat.
Finally, the "Holy of Holies," which housed only the Ark and into which only the Kohen Gadol was permitted entry and only on Yom Kippur, represented the utter transcendence of the material in man's service of G-d.
