Dinner Table Scene


Love this movie but I always get so frustrated watching the dinner table scene when Kurt Russell finally gets the upper hand. I would have shot Santa Claus and the young kidnapper in the face and then shot his wife in the shoulder to show the guy in charge that I wasn't f_uckin around.

Haha Not sure what the hell I would do when the kid showed up out of nowhere and pointed a gun at me, though.

I loved the movie, but that scene frustrated me too. I think I would have shot them too.

He's a yuppie from the east who is used to a quiet lifestyle and not used to handling guns. He also has a conscience and doesn't see himself as a cowboy type like the people he had the drop on. I also got the feeling that he, as a reasonable person, assumed that the others would submit to reason and just let him go and not risk getting shot.

Jeez, you two need to lighten up. Of course his character did the sensible and expected thing in his situation. This thread was just a joke about how bad you wanted the bad guys to get it.
