Title: The only discussion that matters today: I finally watched Commando
Post by: The Fake Shemp on April 27, 2010, 04:50:48 PM
This film is so ridiculous, even the little details.

Like how his daughter makes them sandwhiches, Ahnold bites into it with disgust and asks, "What's in this?!"

Alyssa Milano responds with, "You don't want to know."

And they continue to eat.

WTF?!

That part really bothered me. Are they out of food? Are they poor? Can they not afford deli meat or peanut butter? Why do you let your daughter make lunch if she is knowingly trying to poison you? How can she be your daughter if you don't even look related?

How did the black chick, who looks like one of the missing Cosby children, know how to fire a rocket launcher? Why did she tell the cops that Ahnold was trying to kidnap her, then act like she was helping him?

Matrix: [reading about Boy George in a pop magazine] Why don't they just call him Girl George? It would cut down on the confusion.
Jenny: Oh, Dad, that is so old.
Matrix: Ha Ha. You know when I was a boy and rock'n'roll came to East Germany, the communists said it was subversive.
[thinks and smiles]
Matrix: Maybe they were right.

:rofl

Actually, this is the most important question:

When Ahnold is fighting the black dude from Predator, and they bust into the room next door - the people are having sex. Yet the guy is in doggie position and the chick is behind him. How does that work? Was she using a strap on?

Bennet was mad because Matrix fired him. That's literally the only reason.  :lol

She probably read them while she was parked right next to the ammo store that the police were arresting Arnold at and not asking her why she was parked next to an ammo store with a stolen rocket launcher.

I am pretty sure she wasn't parked long enough to read! I saw the movie, sir!

Also, did James Horner score just ten minutes of music? I felt like the score was just on repeat for the entire movie.

Why did he tear that seat out of the Cosby chick's car? That is never explained.

At first I thought maybe he would duck and hide, but he never did. He just kind of ripped it out for no reason. What a jerk.

Saw this when i was 12 or something, which means it basically worked on every single area a movie could ever work for a 12 year old.

And thereby, it has become a legendary movie.

Matrix: Bennett! I thought you were...
Bennett: Dead? You thought wrong. Ever since you had me thrown out of your unit, I've waited to pay you back.
Bennett: Do you know what today is Matrix?... Pay day!

I remember she fired it backwards the first time.  They didn't do it like Beverly Hills Cop 3 where they read out every single instruction but I imagine it's easy enough to learn where to press the trigger.  And I think she saw the guy that Matrix was chasing pull out a gun or something suspicious which is what made her decide to help Matrix escape the cops.

Actually, this is the most important question:
When Ahnold is fighting the black dude from Predator, and they bust into the room next door - the people are having sex. Yet the guy is in doggie position and the chick is behind him. How does that work? Was she using a strap on?
I figure they were either doing something not kosher or didn't hear the director say action.

Why did he tear that seat out of the Cosby chick's car? That is never explained.

He did duck and hide for two seconds while they were tailing him.  Literally like two seconds.

Why did the guy agree to stay behind and break the bad news to Matrix. "I just kidnapped an elite commando's daughter, I'm gonna tell him about it while completely unarmed with no back up or weapons"  :lol

There was a gun but it was so far off that he would never had got it in time to do anything  :lol

Agreed with the back up though.
