#2 I hear in "Rocky 6" he runs over Clubber Laing in his car and drives 3 miles with him stuck in the wnidshield.

#3 If they need Mexican extras for the filming, we can send a few million.

#4 I heard the climactic fight at the end of the movie takes place at Burt Reynolds' Dinner Theater in Jupiter, Florida.

#5 I'm really looking forward to the scene where he jumps off a cliff in his electrically powered wheelchair.

#6 The shooting stops at 4pm. That's when senior citizen discounts kick in at the buffet.

Re: Ideas for Movies

When at the bottom of a hole, people generally find it a good idea to stop digging.

Kisses and Regards,

#9 More detail -- I hear that Rambo IV has him coming out of retirement from his country home to take on kidnappers who are... you guessed it, white supremacists.

#15 I look forward to Kurt Russell as Snake Plisken in "Escape From New Orleans".

#17 You know, living in California it's easy to forget that our nation is absolutely crawling with white supremacists lead by charismatic evangelical preachers. Good thing the boys and girls in Hollywood are around to set the record straight.

#18 Favorite Rambo quote:
"The mind is the ultimate weapon."

Nothing like unarmed combat, is there, Sly.

#19 The neo-nazi conspiracy theorist Carol Valentine is a leading proponent of the claim that the 9-11 attacks were the work of the US government and that the planes were remote-controlled.
The fascist slut uses the name "Snake Plisken" for her super-secret inside source (probably herself).
(The louse-ridden SS field whore has a site but I refuse to link to it.)

#20 Rambo IV is really going to be exciting. We get to see him join AARP and collect social security benefits. Action sequences involve vast amounts of prune juice and bran.

#21 For me Sly is badly underestimated as a filmmaker - I've liked all his films pretty much. He has to achieve despite the whims of the policratic, despotic Hollywood cabals or propaganda Bureaus in addition to satisfying his core fans. I LIKED "ROCKY V", Sly!

#22 Yeah, but I read this am that Clint Eastwood(?) is going to do a movie based on the book "The Flags of our Fathers", the WW II book about the USMC and Navy Corpsman at the (second) flag rasing at Iwo Jima, memorialized at the Marine Corps Memorial in D.C. (Already filming, according to Mrs. Bobby).

Great book; like reading 'Schindler's List' in paperback, except the heroes are kids from American, not a German capitalist.
