screencap Friday: what the flick? #24
Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from one of the DVDs in my collection (and it’s definitely from a movie, not a TV show). Guess the movie for fun and, well, fun. No prizes, just bragging rights.

isn't that from that paul walker/stave zahn trucker horror movie? don't remember the name but I doubt you have it on DVD

Nope, both guesses are wrong. (You're thinking of *Joy Ride,* Doa, and you'd be surprised what I have on DVD...)

"You like to fuck baby heads? You like to fuck boys?"
"So ah.....are you the brains of the operation?"
"Tell you the truth, I don't think this is a brains kind of operation."
Way of the Gun. And to question you back.....why did they beat up the women in the beginning of the movie?

It is indeed *Way of the Gun.*
And I don't remember why they beat up the woman. Why do you ask? Do you have a theory on this?

I ask because I'm a film afficianado myself, and that was a way to test your knowledge of the film. And if you didn't know, it's a way for me to lord my knowledge over you. Muahahahaha. :P
OK, serously, in the DVD commentary, McQuarrie said he and a buddy were in a situation where they were going to get their asses kicked by a bunch of people. The buddy asks, "What do we do?"
McQuarrie says, "Run in there and hit the women first".
Buddy, "But they'll kill us."
McQuarrie, "They'll kill us anyway, but if we beat the women up first....we'll go to the emergency room, but they still have to go home with them. Take away their victory."

I haven't seen the film in a long while, and I've never listened to the commentary.
