Taking the Reagan mask off was dramatic license.

Saw a bouncer one night in Muncie cold clock some fuck giving him lip. Two hits, punch and then hitting the ground.

Does Buseys character have some kind of telepathic ability to know exactly what someone was doing at a certain point in their lives?

The cops always have better aim

Bodhi is basically wearing unpatterned Zubaz pants here.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:55 pm

Utah could have played on "she was my woman" to get Bodhi to give her up if they could get away.

Nooooooooooo

Good death scene for Gary Busey.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:56 pm

Just think of all the drugs that wouldn't have been done if Busey actually died then.

I think one of the most unrealistic scenarios in the entire movie (and definitely don't read this until the movie is over if you haven't seen the end) is

[+] spoiler: Utah keeping his job as an FBI agent after this tremendous clusterfuck.

I'm gonna say the next action sequence, but this one is great.

So, you talking about the skydiving scene? Because I'll allow it, but you're still wrong.

100% agreed.

Yeah, though I almost consider the two skydiving scenes together. Which isn't accurate, but still.

He sticks his head out the window, into the whipping wind, to scream for Rosey?

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:01 pm

Bodhi not giving up the leverage when Utah asks him to let Tyler go is complete alpha establishing territory.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:01 pm

If Bodhi cancels the order to kill Tyler, does Utah jump after him with no chute? No fuckin' way.

govmentchedda · Post by **govmentchedda** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:01 pm

The chuteless leap out the window is amazing.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:02 pm

It's gotta be hard to hold a gun while skydiving and harder still without a chute, right?

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:02 pm

So, it's Bodhi = dom, Utah = sub/dom, Tyler = sub, right?

Giff · Post by **Giff** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:02 pm

This got dumb(er) quick.

That can be explored in a future fanfic novel.

There goes his fucking knee again.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:03 pm

Just watching them land like that makes my knees hurt.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:03 pm

Utah's gotta know to wrap his body around Bodhi and let him take the hit.

The entire movie, though especially the second half is just pure testosterone.

duff · Post by **duff** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:04 pm

As someone with four knee surgeries, that landing sends shivers down my spine.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:05 pm

It's better if the movie ends with Tyler embracing Utah.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:05 pm

How did they get a captive woman across the Mexican border?

Wait, don't answer that.

govmentchedda · Post by **govmentchedda** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:05 pm

Some other time, fellas.

Yeah, the ending is kind of a shitty epilogue really.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:06 pm

(Though at least it teased the ending with Bodhi's oceanography knowledge earlier after the football scene.)

Or... 100% pure something else

I like the ending.

[+] spoiler: I mean, it feels almost like the studio tested it and the audience hated the end, so they tacked on the last scene.

govmentchedda · Post by **govmentchedda** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:07 pm

Wonder if Keanu got to keep the Canadian tux from wardrobe, or if he brought it with him to the shoot.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:07 pm

(And it makes a nice bookend to Utah's FBI agent training in the rain at the beginning of the movie.)

Hence, my wet/dry comment at the open.

Post by **brian** » Thu Mar 19, 2020 10:08 pm

That looks a lot more like Oregon than Australia.
