Odd scene.


Remember being shocked when Snipes gives his female instructor a smack in the mouth...really odd scene. Nearly as odd as Busey falling horizontally through a windscreen.

She just dropped him out a plane without a parachute! Wouldn't you be slightly annoyed?

Yeah, the guy thought he was OJ Simpson, who at the time was awaiting his criminal trial when this film came out.

And you know when Busey kills forces that guy into the powerlines, just after it he says "I dont think Nine eleven is gonna work for him". Im not a conspiracy theorist, but im surprised no one else picked up on this. Who says nine eleven instead of nine one one. And even so its a pretty odd phrase anyway. And then this movie is about 747 hijackers, features a flight/parachute school, washington DC and even afew skyscrapers.

I know its just a coincidence but whenever I hear or see 9/11 on something it obviously makes me think of 9/11 just like everyone else does.

I just watched it on blu-ray for the first time, and I cracked up when he hit Jessie in the mouth. I was very shocked, and very pleased to see it happen.

I also thought the nine eleven thing was weird. I've never heard it called anything except nine one one unless of course September 11 is being referenced. Clearly a coincidence, but it did make me do a double take.

I can almost guarantee any conspiracy involving Gary Busey won't get far.

I don't have an opinion. The word "opinion" implies the possibility I'm wrong.

Well considering this movie came out some 7 years before 9/11 I think it is just coincidence.

Yeah I know this is 2 years old.....
Some people do say nine eleven. I remember it was a joke from a long forgotten show when someone couldn't dial for help because there was no "eleven" on the phone

reply

at the first highjacking the transmission the pilots receive also says flight six eleven instead of six one one. no big deal, no conspiracy in sight. all is says is these mofos are no professionals.

Somehow i think if someone throwed you out of a plane without a parachute. You might just want to punch someone.

I agree bond_98. That scene didn't shock me in the slightest. We all know the rules about men hitting women. But that was an example of when it is absolutley ok.
