Things I learnt from 'Raw Deal'...

Theres on of these on the Commando board, and having seen this yesterday this is too good to miss....

1) It's totally fine to cause millions of pounds worth of damage, go on killings sprees, effectively cheat on your wife, and give the woman your cheating with loads of money, as long as your pretty much a good guy. Infact, you might even get your job back!

2) The best way to fake your own death is with a massive explosion.

3) Don't worry about getting away from this explosion. As long as you drive slowly away on a motorbike, debris and heat can't touch you.

4) If you want to make friends, go to summer camp.

5) If your going undercover, just change your hair. A bit.

6) Cigars are cool.

7) A few bottles of champagne really wipes you out.

8)People in wheelchairs can walk, there just not trying hard enough!

9) Professional hitmen can wipe out whole squads of police officers, but the best line they can think of when they come to their target is "witness this".

10) It's easy to spot people who are involved with the mafia. Just look for people wearing naff 80's sunglassess.

I hope you can think of more!

11) It is necessary to imitate 'Terminator' if you want your film to be considered "cool".

12) Cigars are not cool when Arnie is smoking them. In a nightclub.

13) A punch in the face has no effect on people anymore.

14) Your wife won't care that you've faked your own death and left her for a while - she'll get herself pregnant while you're gone.

15) It's possible to hit numerous targets at a distance of a 100 yards with a fully automatic submachinegun held in one hand, while driving a white convertible with the track "i can't get no statisfaction" on the stereo - at least if you're Arnold!

16) Hoodlums and hired goons are not what they used to be...

17) Women dig musclebound dickheads - especially musclebound dickheads who give them money!

18) Bar room brawls still rock...

19) Arnold really knows his way around the gambling tables...

20) Arnold is no barfly - he prefers to blast them to bits with shotguns, machineguns and heavy artillery or to mow them down with a big red truck, and a few bottles of champagne make him snoar

21) Mobsters want their smack back if they loose some - and the best way is to consult Arnold and get his opinion

22) Pouring candy over a dead mobster is the coolest way to end a violent shoot-out

... and not to mention:
23) Guns don't kill people - Arnold does

"Ok, you big abe... Get a snoopful of this gasbomb!!"

a) totally acceptable to be part of a gang that almost makes swiss cheese of your old boss and friend "That's all right".

b) If you are in the middle of nowhere and a small town sherrif, its totally ok to be smoking around combustible fluid.

c) Wrestling is fixed (analogy with cops)

d) Arny went to ball games (talking about Blair) 14 years later he predicts on live TV that the Jets would make one of the most impresive comebacks in Monday night football history.

a) you can become the govaner of California,

b) You can have a riped body no matter how old you are

c)you can say she's be back and every one will understand what you mean

1. 80's Hi-NRG pop is way underated.

2. aslong as your wearing a leather jacket and wife beater you can shoot anyone up to 200 yards away from the hip with a semi automatic through a windshield as your manouvering around a construction site at 80MPH.

3. you will get women if your suits are fitted too small and you walk like part of it is living in your azz.

Yes, well, let us see: when was the last time you asked a British person what they "learnt" in school? And did they respond saying "I learnt English" and did you respond saying "Wow! I also learnt English in school!" And then, did you both look like dumbasses for using an Old English term in the 21st century? Hmmmm? Sounds like a possibility!

25) Real men don't bother with body armour when they're preparing for a firefight.

26) Bring as many different guns as possible so you have to carry a bunch of different magazines as well.

27) When you're standing guard outdoors, select only the most visible or precarious place to stand.

28) There's nothing at all gay about sucking on cigars.

29. A rowdy crowd of gamblers suddenly go quiet when someone shows the finer workings of science.

30. VHS was still the rage.

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women!

I learned that you should not drink and bake

[–] phiberoptix 18 years ago

-Arnie's strongest suit is definitely not alliteration.
-You can do anything as long as 'Satisfaction' is playing in the b.g.
-Austrians are more prevalent in the Chicago mafia than I thought.
-Stay away from soda machines in police stations, at all costs.
-A hot girl jogging in the fog early in the morning is a bad sign.
-If you suddenly meet someone like Robert Davi, somebody's probably gonna die (see Die Hard and Licence to Kill)

When you're going to drive/crash into an illegal casino make sure to turn on your headlights.

[–] camruud 18 years ago

- There is almost always a bed in bedrooms.

- Never gear up for a gunfight without a mirror.

- You dont neccesarily have to point the gun at someone to hit them.

- P stands for "pu§§y".

- I also learned about cows biggest contribution to the world.

The best response to a limo driver telling you that you got into the wrong limo is to pull out a gun and say "Shut Up!"

[–] cmlegend 17 years ago

The best way not to get killed is to run under a huge mine truck

Cigars are cool jerk

[–] Ricky-V-Valentine 17 years ago

The Rolling Stones is a great choice in music whilst driving around shooting people.

If Arnie is successful at gambling his primary concern is to buy more clothes, probably Italian suits by Giorgio Armarni and Valentino Coture so he can continue to convince his new mafia buddies that he is a proper gangster.

Arnie makes a convincing gangster, except to Robert Davi who will quickly figure him out.

An intoxicated wife will make cakes when his husband is out, wait for him to return home and attempt to throw it at him. The suitable response from the husband is that you shouldn't bake when you're drunk, and walk off.

If you get into a brutal fight in a clothing store in the middle of a crowded shopping mall, and one of you gets thrown through the store window and into the main mall area, absolutely no one will react to it.

* Faking your own death, killing a load of people, having an affair with a women and giving her lots of money...and then coming home again will cure your wife from Alcoholism

* Squeezing the neck of a psycho guy that hates you, sticking a gun in his stomach and then putting it away and letting him go results in him just walking away
