"They Live" by John Carpenter

[Truth Warrior]

I liked the movie well enough, but....

That has to be the longest fight scene in cinematic history. I saw this movie in the theatre and people were laughing because it went on so long.

South Park has an episode that uses the same scene, blow-by-blow. Here's the fight scene with the South Park soundtrack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REbOa9lno6s

It's a "guy" flick.

i have to say, it was a lot better when i was younger.

they live

i think i'll have to rent it soon for old time's sake. But i bet i will end up agreeing with you.

Why don't you just click that link up there and watch it right now?

Why don't you just that link up there and watch it right now?

Because I've got it on tape and can watch it whenever I want to, without tying up my computer.

An absolute must see.

The fight scene between Piper and David will remind you what it's like to make some people see what's going on.

You know, I think what you said is very profound. I've seen
this movie a few times many years ago. It was a fav. In recent
past I've looked to purchase a copy of this DVD for old time's
sake. But I never equated the fight scene metaphor to the
challenge of waking people up. Good catch!
