Commando (1985 Schwarzenegger flick) appreciation thread

“Rae Dawn Chong” and “Super Babe” go together like “teeth” and “penis”

That girl is never going to be able to settle for a man, though. Where is she going to find a man as badass as her father?

“Can you jump out of an airplane and land safely after it’s taken off? No? NEXT!”

There is always Jason Bourne.

On that note, I loved how Commando could have a hot babe like Rae Dawn Chong, and NOT shoehorn in a romantic subplot that most of its core audience wouldn’t care about and that would only serve to detract from the “blowing shit up real good” action. Her and Arnie’s relationship in this movie seems to be strictly platonic.

Agreed. Strictly business.

No, Bourne always jumps ONTO the plane after it takes off.

Oh, BTW, I hate to admit this, since the script was so stupid, but, I thought that Arnold actually displayed a little bit of acting chops.
A little.

Best wishes,

The IMDB thread is priceless, eg:

“M-60 machine guns are perfect for trimming hedges, whereas saw blades are perfect for trimming heads”

or

“The two greatest killing machines in the U.S. Army’s Special Forces are from Austria and Australia.”
