Raiders is pretty much the perfect action adventure film, so that.

Temple of Doom was the most fun IMO, so it's my favorite. Loved the action.

Last Crusade is my personal favorite out of the bunch. It feels more like a ride than a movie to me. I'm also not a fan of Temple of Doom, and don't understand people's love for it.

The Last Crusade is the best final act in a movie trilogy ever, so... That.

Temple of Doom was the first one that I saw in theaters(I'm too young to have seen the original at the time of it's release) and it's what made me fall in love with the character/series. So I'm a bit biased in that regard.
I can see why others would favor the other two, but TOD will always be my personal fav.

The Last Crusade easily.
I always get Raiders and Temple of Doom mixed up. Temple of Doom is the one that ends with Indy on the rope bridge, right?

That's Last Crusade.
WOW, I just got the bluray set last week and watched Temple last night, MY GOD it's horrible. My first time watching it as an adult. The bridge scene was good but that's about it.
Funny, I always remembered "short round " was the guy that took a bullet for Jones at the start and the "power " of the artifact that Jones was trading was to give a person a "second life". Jones used it to revive the dude but he didn't know it would turn him into a kid. My imagination was better than what really happened.

It's Temple of Doom, honestly. It's the less popular opinion but I've always been a fan of how bizarre, imaginative, and unrelenting it is, and it has so many varied and memorable set-pieces.
I also think it has the single best scene in any Indiana Jones movie, which comes when Indy is freeing the slave children in the caves, and there's a moment where he's draped in shadows then a close-up where's he's just glaring at fools like a boss. Then this song starts playing.
Unbeatable.

Raiders by far.
The opening of the Ark gave me nightmares as a kid and I would follow Indy's advice and close my eyes when that scene came up again for a long time.

This is pretty much me word for word
Raiders is clearly numero uno, the ne plus ultra of blockbuster cinema, and Last Crusade is a lighthearted rehash of Raiders. But its my favorite damnit, specifically because of the comedy and the heart that comes through with the relationship between Indy and his father.
"I thought I lost you boy" *insert tears here*
"Indiana...let it go" *insert more tears here*
The only thing i don't like about Crusade is the way they turned Brody into a bumbling idiot from someone who would have gone after the Ark himself in the first film. So i give it to Raiders by a nose.
The interplay between Connery and Ford is fucking amazing in Crusade though.

I'm going to go with Last Crusade. I was a kid at the time, but Temple of Doom was my first Indy movie. I don't think I saw Raiders until later on.
