First there was the Michael Mann TV movie, .........

What was that one? "Heat" is one of my favorite movies and was directed by Michael Mann, one of my favorite directors, "Last of Mohicans"

I'm 99.9% sure that FX is owned by the parent company of Fox/FN.

Darth Murdoch needs to tighten his grip on his galaxy.

What tripe.

Coming soon!

Speaking of Hollyweird and body armor, can someone post that cool poster of the helmeted GI with the immortal words "Hey Hollywood! How 'bout a nice, steaming cup of shut-the-f**k-up?" or words to that effect. Liek an idiot, I never downloaded a copy!

Thankee!

If you can find it, let me know. :) I heard it also has another title "Made in L.A."

He's one of our favorite directors, also. Did you hear he's releasing Manhunter on DVD - (again)? Apparently, he didn't release the first one, and his version will be much more thorough. I'm really looking forward to it. My favorite by him is "Thief".

"Thief" was great. Also has depressing scene in fluorescent lit all night restaurant like "Heat". I looked for "Takedown" and seems it's favorite in the UK. Many UK sales via EBay with just one US sale already completed. Not available on Amazon USA.

I can't say enough about "Last of Mohicans". The final fight scenes (and her jumping off the cliff) are among the most righteous ever done. I get up and yell and cheer every time I see it.

 Did you ever see Mann's TV series "Crime Story"? Done on  a very high level for TV

You can buy from UK Amazon. But they just might stick it to you.

Wiliam Peterson "Live and Die in LA" another great one. What a movie, could have been made by Mann but was directed by Freidkin

Maybe B&B should have had the cops wait 5 days instead. dont want to break any laws.

B&B was "honored" in that special Kalifornia way by being shut down later. Due to the ridiculous Kalifornia anti-gun laws, the same shop that saved the LAPD's butt on that fateful day because it could no longer viably do business in the area.

Imagine how the whole debacle would have turned out if B&B hadn't been there at all!

I bought a couple of my guns from the B&B that used to be in Westchester I think when I lived in California. Awesome sales staff, great selection. They said that the law enforcement went into their LA store and demanded that they give them some Bushmasters or Armalites I think. They did, but in doing so they actually were breaking the law. Quite a paradox, huh? Anyhow, I tried to watch the whole thing, but I got started to get worried when they were showing the perps load their guns. They were playing up the "Guns are evil, and look how these guys almost rituallistically worship theirs by methodically loading them". That was it for me. By the way, I think all the B&B gun stores closed down. They got sick of all the red tape the state made them wade through. California politicians are slowly but surely going to make that state uninhabitable for business.

The part of that story you NEVER hear started a few weeks prior to the robbery. The same two creeps were stopped by LAPD with grenades, machine guns, pipe bombs, and other "artillery" in their car. They were held for a few days, the feds refused to prosecute so they were released!!!!

I remember thinking "no doors to break down, no fun for ATF".

I can't say enough about "Last of Mohicans".

My favorite film.

A great depiction of life in the colonies in the 18th century.

A wonderful, romantic movie.

Totally un-PC.

Romance, action, great. Enough to keep both sexes happy. The film's romance is the kind guys like (at least me) and perhaps the action makes sense for women. I'm sure it does because it takes place in context. Not gratuitous.

I saw that too. The line was disgusting. Just more anti-gun propaganda from the lefties.

Sorry for the vanity but if anyone has been watching the FX cable channel you may have seen the cheap shot which Hollywierd couln't resist taking at gun ownership. The special was a re-encactment of the North Hollywood shoot out a few years ago.

Ah, yes, the faggy sissies gangsters of Hollywood... they want to control people but they do not want people to have control over their own scientific means on things.

They crucify christ and the government, yet insist that the innocent without appeal be disarmed too.

It's only about gang banging the American public. Hollywood and liberals want to litteraly fck the American people over. They want kiddy porn, gang bangs, and certainly not the American people with guns.

"I can't believe they let people buy these kind of guns".

I can't believe the sheeple let people at Hollywood buy people like "these" to turn their cheap porn!

Hell, maybe if Hollywood gave us a hand and gave us their money, maybe we would not feel the need to have guns!!!

I can't believe the sheeple is not waking up and letting Hollywood con artists and sexual predator gay lovers losers get the American people's arses for free!!

Enough said, I guess.
