Movie Commando appreciation thread.

[charcoalchicken]

Little bit of trivia I worked with Vernon Wells (Bennet's) son for a couple of months as a apprentice chef (which didn't last long) he told me about his dad being an actor and said he was in Commando I went and hired it as I hadn't seen it since I was a kid watched and pissed myself laughing.

He was about 35 at the time and looked pretty similar to him same build

 

[Face_Plain]

Arguably the greatest movie of all time.

 

[ManWithNoName]

Bump. Fox are planning to remake this movie with, wait for it, Sam Worthington in the lead role.

Who'd like to start off the bomb threats?

 

[WCErevival]

You just cant remake a movie like this. Arnold himself should step in to stop them. Could be a movie on its own

 

[YIIIABLETTT]

Just had my first commando experience last night.

Mind=Blown. What a movie.

"And if you want your kid back, then you gotta co-operate, right?"

"Wrong" Shoots him between the eyes

 

[Ruck Machine]

Great film, not Arnies best but very very good.

What is it with Sam Worthington being offered effing everything these days?

 

[WCErevival]

I only realised now that Bennet is played by the same guy that is the mohawk biker in Mad Max 2. Never would of picked it.
He is also in Green Street hooligans 2.

 

[Hodgepodge]

I was watching this as a kid and I actually believed it was all possible.

Arnie was a superman when I was growing up

What is the point of a re-make? To make it more serious?

Haha, wow. Just wow. Talk about a major flop coming up.

My favourite bit in the movie.

That and the bit where he asks the flight attendent for a pillow and blanket cause his 'friend' is dead tired.

It's been about 3 months since my last viewing, well overdue in my opinion. Might have to throw it in the DVD player this weekend.

Check out these brilliant animated re-enactments:

I love picking my 6 year old up by one leg and hanging him upside down and saying, "I have to remind you Sully, this is my weak arm!"

Also, for anyone interested in action figures: http://necaonline.com/52093/product...figure-30th-anniversary-ultimate-john-matrix/

Not bad but needs a giant tree log accessory to be complete.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

I like cheesy,over the top 80's action films.

 

[Demosthenes]

First half of the movie is fantastic, so much cheesy humour and fun action sequences.

Second half (after he gets to the island, where he's just mowing down wave after wave of bad guys) is pretty boring.

'You think I can smell them coming?'

'I did.'
