==Why was the notation regarding Keith A. Glascoe '''removed'''?==
I hope in the final version of this page there is room to honor Keith A. Glascoe (who played BENNY), who died trying to save people from Tower 2 on Sept 11th, 2001.

Revamp

I'll be giving this page a much need revamp in the not too distant future, if that's okay with everyone. - Gunmaster45

That's cool it's severely lacking on captures and it need a make over -Phoenixent 05:51, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, GM? Where is that revamp?-protoAuthor -Dangit, Bobb -I mean, GM, if you don't do this soon, I will.-protoAuthor

Proto, John can do a better to than you. Wait for him.-Oliveira 19:01, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
But will he do it? That's the question.
I was going to do it, but I guess AdAstra2009 did it instead. I got swamped with movies to screencap for Predator20, and this was seriously the next fucking movie I was going to do. Damm it, waste of $15! - Gunmaster45

No it isn't. It's an awesome movie.-protoAuthor

John, Here is a Video to make you feel better.

video clicky.-Oliveira 01:07, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

It was a waste because I've seen the movie a million times before and own it on VHS, I bought the DVD strictly to screencap. And as for the video, WTF? - Gunmaster45
What the fuck indeed, John, What the fuck indeed.-Oliveira 01:14, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, but the DVD has all those nifty special features, and won't break down like the VHS will. Although, of course, you might not be a special features guy. I am, though. I actually got angry on Black Friday when the Black Hawk Down Deluxe Edition sold for $6, not because I bought it at a high price, which I did, but because it's worth SO much more, it has over 24 hours of special features! But if you still think it's a waste, think about this: You might be helping to make a sequel with Natalie Portman being a cleaner. -protoAuthor
I like special features, and after watching it on DVD, I liked the scenes added. I was just frustrated because I went out of my way to pick this up for nothing. No big deal though. - Gunmaster45
lol sorry about that GM45, My dad was like "heh Eric wanna go to Blockbuster, they are selling off all their stock" so I was like "sure" and I was picking between Ghosts of Mars and The Professional, I guess it would have been better if I bought Ghosts of Mars Instead. You can still cap some parts though, The copy I have does not have all the extra scenes like the Ringtrick, Russian Roulette, and the scene where leon shoves his gun in the Dealer's mouth. --AdAstra2009 02:38, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
Cool, will do when I have time. - Gunmaster45
I'm going to screencap Se7en first and then I'll add shots here. - Gunmaster45
Damn, I was gonna do that. But go ahead, my capping software seems to be failing me right now.-protoAuthor

Where does this SWAT team shop?

I hope i'm not the only one who noticed the variety of exotic weapons the SWAT team uses. Galils? AA-52s, Mini-14s? What SWAT team lets each officer handpick his own rifle for god's sakes? I thought they generally used M16s and M4s.

Every Single weapon the SWAT team uses is not used in real life. Except for the Mini-14. Also, SWAT teams let officers handpick their rifles. They also let them customize them as well.-Oliveira 23:23, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
This movie was made in the mid-1990s, so 9mm subguns (namely, the H&K MP5 and Colt RO635) would have been the norm for SWAT teams back then. As for the exotic array of 5.56mm carbines used here, this movie was a French production and had French armorers, so I guess they didn't have access to very many AR-model rifles. Plus, it's a movie anyway. -MT2008
When you have French Armorer Christophe Maratier doing the weapons, you KNOW that you're gonna get really weird choices. Also I heard that all the INTERIOR SHOTS of the SWAT team fighting in the building were filmed on a sound stage in Paris, France. Heck, I would go to another country than try to film live fire in NYC, they are so restrictive (remember that Cloverfield had to fake NYC on California Streets because of NYC's restrictions on live fire?). Anyway, knowing that the interior battle scenes of Leon's hotel were filmed on a FRENCH soundstage explains the eclectic choice in SWAT weapons..... MoviePropMaster2008 19:28, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
