girl try to evade the chopper in that town on a bike ?
I thouht that was fairly long already... it was 5 minutes at most I guess. I can\'t imagine how they\'re gonna keep the audience focussed at a 14 min action sequence :(  On the other hand, if they succeed
at such a thing I\'m happy !:cool:


Maybe the helicopter scene isnt 14min long ??? Maybe they have to spend 14min filming.... to get all camera angles ? Maybe this and maybe that... hehe, I dont care. Lets see the movie next year and find out.
MM told me to have a 5 line signature. I count now
1
2
and 5th line there it is :)

What gun battle is that? As 90% of The Matrix was filmed in Sydney. I have been in the building where they do all that ggun fighting in the lobbey, before going inside the elevator.

Now that gave me the chills.

I couldn\'t quite figure out if you knew already or what, but he\'s talking about Heat, not The Matrix.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAPETIME!

Go see Heat, and then report back Racer.

If you look carefully at the bank robbery scene, you\'ll notice that Robert Deniro, Val Kilmer, and Tom Sizemore walk into an office building on the ground floor, and then the next shot shows them inside a bank.  If you look out the windows of that bank set, you can see that it\'s actually high up in the building, on the 20th floor or so.  When they escape from the bank, they walk right out onto the ground floor again, with no intervening scene of them in an elevator.  It\'s really annoying once you notice it.

Next they walk past some huge aluminum sculptures, in a plaza that was used for many other movies in the past, like "Black Rain."  The cops creep up on them right in front of the LA Public Library, and the criminals start working their way down the street in a massive gun battle right at the intersection of Flower & 5th.  They make their way west on 5th, and then De Niro somehow ends up at a supermarket, where he steals a car.  There is no supermarket over there; just ramps to the 110 freeway.  However the park to the north where Tom Sizemore gets blown away is in approximately the correct place.

I\'m guessing Racer wants you to stay on topic.




Damn, I\'ve got to watch Heat this weekend I guess.  At least the ending.  Woo hoo!!!
I wear a necklace now because I like to know when I\'m upside down.
