How much do I cum? The answer might surprise you!

I love this movie but how did Dr. Jones go from dancing on top of a floating submarine to infiltrating nazi submarine base in the next scene?
WWII era subs (and all modern non-nuclear) run 99% of the time on the surface or just below the surface to facilitate internal combustion. Presumably this sub did just that. Operating speeds of subs totally submerged is rather slow when only on battery power, which has a way shorter range as well. Presumably he manages to hang on somehow, maybe with his whip and then like water-skis behind the sub or something. The only reason I know this is because I did a ton of WWII history in school and a few papers on U-Boats but I still think he would have been killed from exposure pretty quickly since doesn't the sub appear to travel, like hundreds of miles?

Terminator 1 is better. Aliens is better. Die Hard 1 and 3 are better. The Killer and Hard Boiled are better.

Ronin is arguably better too.

The Raid can be seen as cheap as $3 on Amazon. If anyone views the whole movie and doesn't feel like they got $3 worth, PM me, I'll Paypal it to them. It's one of the most underrated action movies ever, with perhaps only The Raid 2 moreso.

Oh yea, forgot about the fifth element. It's got aliens, robots, cool space guns, no annoying kid, and a tiny bit of tiny titay.

Best Action Movie.

Ronin has the best car chases in movie history, hands down (2nd place: Blues Brothers)

Both Raid movies lose me as soon as they abandon all weapons and just start kung-fuing each other for an hour. Maybe Indonesian gangs have a widespread Batman-esque fear of guns or something.

They still have knives, claw hammers, baseball bats, etc. The knife work in both is unreal, and few things on film have made me cringe like the claw hammer fights in 2.

It's still really dumb when you see baseball guy and hammer girl kill a bunch of gangsters and not one of them has a loving gun. Every time something like this happens the movie goes straight from gritty action film to anime bullshit territory.

I haven't seen the Raid 2, but almost the entire last hour of Raid 1 were endless lovely unarmed slapfights. The knife work was indeed unreal, I have no idea why they had to take the Kung Fu route for the big bad guy fights. The brothers fighting that short guy might've dragged on for longer than Neo vs Smith.
