The VHS cover (on the screen)


I actually love this movie in a tongue-in-cheek way. I don't take it seriously, but it's very 50s-60s Disney-esque.

However, the cover of the VHS makes me laugh histerically because he's so efeminate. I love the way he's holding the gun, with his hands all floppy.
Very Savage :P

Yeah, what kind of flag is that in the background ?
Maybe they should have upgraded Tremain's weapon while they were at it - M16?
As I recall, this movie did get the Boston Tea party about right.
Most people think it had to do with a tax increase !
Au contraire.
It was actually because of favoritism - a tax decrease - only for the East India Tea Co.
And that is why the Indian-framing conspirators only tossed the East India Company tea boxes overboard.
