Movies where guns would make it rather short.

Raiders of the Lost Ark. If he had blown the ark up, he'd've wiped out the Germans a few minutes earlier. And the guys behind him would've been killed in the backblast. :p
 
So pax, what you're saying is.. If I came up with a device that fit comfortably, kept your back aligned without overstraining or extending any muscles in your back and put a nice little mount on there for your favorite pistol you'd be happy?


Question - is the range of motion in your arms limited in any way during pregnancy?
 
Batman, if Bruce Wayne's father would have carried, he could have shot the bad guy and gone home with his wife and son.

My wife just said Yentl. If they would have shot her early on, we wouldn't have had to hear her sing.:evil:
 
Pax, once again , makes clear what many men just don't get.

Of course, many women don't have any more experience with whatever the topic of discussion is than does the the generic man, but they are still free to say, "Men just don't get it."

I'm having a hard time picturing any device that would fit comfortably throughout pregnancy ... a very very adjustable low-riding belly band? (Plus remember a lot of women like to show off their 'bumps' :) -- a problem I didn't have because it wasn't the style when mine were born over a decade ago.)

Talking to friends who are pregnant now, or who recently gave birth, the consensus seemed to be that a well-designed and very adjustable shoulder holster was the best bet -- followed, believe it or not, by Thunderwear-type rigs.

Worth exploring in another thread maybe, if you're really interested. I think I derailed this one enough! :D

The Shining, saving me from what seemed like two hours of unrelenting, tense orchestration. Two to the chest and one to the head make Jack a dead boy.

You guys are murdering willing suspension of disbelief here!


I just have a problem that some seem to be unable to "un-suspend" it.

And then they go vote or serve on juries.

Movies where guns would make it shorter? Anything with Jack Black, because I could shoot myself rather than sit through it. :D
 
Well...then there's those movies that have guns but people don't know how to use them. Like a seeming number of movies where a woman (sexist Hollywood???) is supposed to shoot back at the bad guys but drops it (usually out the car window). Or that guy hiding in the closet in Pulp Fiction.
 
number one: i never want to go see a movie with anyone on this thread. just like i refused to watch any movie with my mother (i brought over The Cell. moms a social worker. uggg)
number two: men don't get lots of things about women. women don't get lots of things about men. and while i have yet to become pregnent, i will say that i think i will have other things on my mind then guns when i got a baby about to pop. like "when the hell is this thing gonna be out of me?!?!"
 
The Blair Witch Project. The unarmed nitwits go unarmed into the woods. That is not going to happen to my family or those of my friends.

My pet peeve is the hero who never finishes the fist fight. The good guy always knocks the villain "Out" then turns his/her back on him and walks away or hugs his/her SO. Then She/He/It is surprised when the villain cold cocks em from behind. My 6, 10 and 12 year old kids yell at the TV for the hero finish the job while the villain is down.

Grendel
 
How about if they would just USE the guns they were carrying?

Yukon Cornelius has a revolver the whole time but never draws it^ against the Abominable Snow Monster but rather Yukon and Herbie scheme to hit the monster on the head with a big rock.

The scarecrow carries a revolver before entering the Haunted Forest but never uses it even when attacked by flying monkeys.

:neener:
 
30 days of night(movie theater).

I disagree...

They had guns. The entire town was loaded for bear (literally), but when the final few people were trying to survive, I doubt that they would want their position known to the 40ish Vampires out there. Simple fact, they didn't have enough gun or people to take care of them. The number one thing on their minds were survival. They needed to stay alive and outlast the vampires, not fight them.
 
Beowulf

The Blair Witch Project. The unarmed nitwits go unarmed into the woods. That is not going to happen to my family or those of my friends.

Welcome to THR. Your user name reminds me of another movie where firearms would have made a difference. At least they would have on Grendel and the dragon, not the mom. Beowulf with a minigun a la Arnold in Predator.
 
Here's another one: Lord Of The Rings

Frodo and Sam could have gotten to Mordor a lot easier if they had FAL's with lots of ammo. Or shotguns, you gotta love shotguns :D
