Technically Temple of Doom and Last Crusade aren't sequals, are they?
[/ QUOTE ]
Noun
sequel
1. A narrative that is written after another narrative set in the same universe, especially a narrative that is chronologically set after its predecessors.
They are sequels.

In the Merriam-Webster dictionary it has the following entry for sequel:
1 : CONSEQUENCE, RESULT
2 a : subsequent development b : the next installment (as of a speech or story); especially : a literary or cinematic work continuing the course of a story begun in a preceding one
I'm pretty certain that Temple of Doom and Last Crusade don't qualify as sequels by that definition since the three stories are completely seperate from one another.
