Please help me remember this movie (i think it stars arnold shwartzenegar) - Blu-ray Forum

kramer733 · 06-21-2009, 12:50 AM

I think in the beginning there were helicopters and they tried to capture this red haired girl who had short hair (and fairly attractive if i might add). I think there were motor cycles in that scene too. Anyway, the short red haired girl (if i remember correctly in my mind looks good...) who i think is the wife of the character that arnold plays gets captured. I think in the beginning of the movie, arnold's character and the short red haired girl had a sour relationship but make alot of progress because of what they've been through. (it's an action movie btw) Skip through to the end of the film and you see the same red haired girl with a seductive voice (i think it was seductive) and she had a gold lip stick and tried to scare or seduce this geeky looking guy. The guy gets scared cause he thinks it's a gun or something and pisses his pants.

Anyway, i really wanna watch this movie again =) Haven't seen it in what seems like a decade.

lol, I think you mixed up a lot of facts in your memory but it sounds like "True Lies". The guy peeing his pants was Bill Paxton (god I love his comedic roles in actions movies).

kramer733 · 06-21-2009, 01:01 AM

quite a bit actually. His wife doesn't get captured till the last 1/3rd of the movie, His wife actually isn't a red head (it's Jamie lee curtis so she's a dirty blonde), No helicoptors at the beginning, the only time a helicoptor is used is the last 10 minutes of the movie when Arnie rescues his daughter. However Arnie does chase the bad guy who's driving a motorcycle, on a Horse

.

To watch, go to your local wallyworld or amazon and you can get the DVD for dirt cheap. Or find some pay-per-view channel that has it for viewing, although YMMV for the PPV.

At the end arnie uses an AV-8B HARRIER JET not A Helicopter !!!!!!!!!!

To rescue daughter !

wormraper · 06-21-2009, 01:31 AM

lol, you're right. I mixed up the two scenes.

tbizzle · 06-21-2009, 02:32 AM

True Lies is an awesome movie, just go get it at blockbuster tonight and enjoy it!

I just had a breakthrough like this today as well. I had this scene in my mind from when I was about 5 years old. I remember the movie being somewhat of an adventure film, and the hero was wearing some black. Then he was captured and was strapped to a table, and I remember getting freaked when he was getting pumped full of water

Come to find out (20 years later) that it was The Princess Bride. And he actually wasn't getting pumped full of water, just looked like it when I was a kid. Freaked the hell out of me then, lol. Anyways, just thought I'd share that

Uncle Leo · 06-21-2009, 02:56 AM

True Lies...one of those we NEED on BLU!!!!!!

you just made me think about a movie that freaked me out as a kid. someone my mom worked with told her about this cool ghost movie. totally appropriate for small children. so she took me to the theater. then tvs start talking & trees start eating people.

A helicopter is also used on the bridge scene when Arnie is trying to rescue Jamie Lee Curtis from the limo.

Wibbler · 06-22-2009, 07:28 AM

Parts of the OP's post make it sound like Commando.
(hostage, helicopters etc)
You may be getting two films mixed up...?
