I'm the opposite. I always love it when Weird Al shows up in action movies.

[–]ArboristCook 56 points57 points ago

Gotta love the sissy release of the bow string lol...

He doesn't even touch the string, that's what I love.

[–]ganiggle 34 points35 points ago

Incredibly realistic special effects piss you off?

[–]The_Octopode 76 points77 points ago

For those asking, it's not an action movie. It's from a weird al comedy called UHF in which he is in charge of a local TV network.

This is my new mop. George, my friend, he gave me this mop. This is a pretty good mop. It's not as good as my first mop. I miss my first mop, but this is still a good mop. Sometimes you just hafta take what life gives ya, 'cause life is like a mop and sometimes life gets full of dirt and crud and bugs and hairballs and stuff... you, you, you gotta clean it out. You, you, you gotta put it in here and rinse it off and start all over again and, and sometimes, sometimes life sticks to the floor so bad you know a mop, a mop, it's not good enough, it's not good enough. You, you gotta get down there, like, with a toothbrush, you know, and you gotta, you gotta really scrub 'cause you gotta get it off. You gotta really try to get it off. But if that doesn't work, that doesn't work, you can't give up. You gotta, you gotta stand right up. You, you gotta run to a window and say, "Hey! These floors are dirty as hell, and I'm not gonna take it any more!"

[–]Lots42 3 points4 points ago

And then he got a job at a hospital.

[–]semisimian 2 points3 points ago

Still a better love story than Twilight.

YOU SOOOOOOO STUUUUUPIIIIIID!!!!!!

[–]ButterThatBacon 2 points3 points ago

Mmmm Red snappah! Verrrrrry tasty!

[–]Gordygus 28 points29 points ago

Totally agree. I think action movies are much more thrilling and suspenseful when the hero has to work to stay out of these kind of situations rather than getting into one and simply being 'lucky'. Once you know the hero is that lucky all the following action scenes aren't as interesting. One thing I loved about the Terminator 1 & 2 movies is that you knew it was all over if that thing got you. I was disappointed in the latest Terminator when the machine had John Connor by the throat and just didn't crush it straight away. Instead it looked at him as if enjoying the moment. IT'S A TERMINATOR!!! IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE ANY 'GLOAT' EMOTION!! Anyway, I believe I have gone off on a bit of a tangent. Carry on.

[–]bobonthego 5 points6 points ago

TIL; You'd make a bad villain, explaining your nefarious plan to the hero before pressing the 'kill hero' button and leaving the room before the hero is dead.

[–]Dead_Skull 7 points8 points ago

That's why I love the incredibles so much. "you sly dog, you got me monologuing!"

[–]Herculix 7 points8 points ago

what? no, he seemed to make it very clear that if he ever had the hero in his grasp, he'd just kill him and ruin the movie. he's upset that movies don't work like that more often, because there's no tension if there's no expectation that a dangerous situation might not work well for the protagonist.

[–]coinich 7 points8 points ago

I think Watchmen pulled it off. Granted, thats opinion, but I did really appreciate it when Ozymindias said "I'm not a comic book villain. Do you seriously think I would explain my master stroke to you if there were even the slightest possibility you could affect the outcome? I triggered it 35 minutes ago."

there's a relevant TVTrope somewhere, but I'm not gonna jump on the grenade and dig it up.

[–]SarahBeara231 35 points36 points ago

UHF! :D

[–]armandg 7 points8 points ago*

Hey look, they're playing CounterStrike!!!

[–]red97 2 points3 points ago

My thoughts exactly. Noobs try to spray with AK, get noscoped/onedeaged by good players. I've seen it happen hundreds of times.

[–]armandg -1 points0 points ago

I haven't played it for ages, but my guess is that I could quickscope that fucker with a one-kill bullet from my Scout-rifle.

[–]Repost_more_thanks 7 points8 points ago

Time to download UHF

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points ago

but the full movie is on youtube right now http://youtu.be/ecQAZoYhpJ8

Wait thats Michael Richards, Cramer from Seinfeld. Fuck Yeah.

[–]overweightanorexic 4 points5 points ago

I made an exploding arrow when I was a kid, it didn't explode, it just came flying back at me.

[–]holger-danske 3 points4 points ago

I think you're confusing arrows with boomerangs.

[–]CyLLama 1 point2 points ago

Also exploding with successful.

[–]GoryImages 3 points4 points ago

But, this is like the best movie of all time.

[–]lia_sang 2 points3 points ago

Today, we're going to learn how to make plutonium from common household objects.

[–]Chardok 4 points5 points ago

CHAAAAANGE! YA GOT CHANGE?!?!?!

[–]ApeofBass 8 points9 points ago

Upvote for Al!

[–]russian_unicycle 3 points4 points ago

Then you should rent Rambo III - the most realistic action movie ever produced cough

[–]333kyary[S] 4 points5 points ago

I am not quite sure. Is it MORE realistic than Commando?!

[–]russian_unicycle 5 points6 points ago

Yes, it is. But on second thought…THIS is the most realistic movie mankind has ever seen.

[–]goofball_jones 2 points3 points ago

that's a movie? I thought it was a documentary! I mean, that shit's so real!

[–]russian_unicycle 0 points1 point ago

Anything is possible when your breath smells like curry and not a lady.

[–]Lots42 0 points1 point ago

Commando. Where a half naked man kills a bunch of people in order to take a little girl.

[–]HandyCore 0 points1 point ago

Is it more realistic than Suburban Commando?

[–]Pointy_Haired_Boss 2 points3 points ago

Never underestimate the power of a mustache.

[–]monkeymania 2 points3 points ago

SUPPLIES!!!

[–]thatdudeyoulove 2 points3 points ago

This is why I love action movies.

[–]kaltorak 2 points3 points ago

CONAN THE LIBRARIAN!

[–]Uzielsquibb 2 points3 points ago

Don't you know the DEWEY DECIMAL SEESTUM??!!

[–]mromblesomble 6 points7 points ago

Do you have the source on this?

[–]Pawpsiclez 12 points13 points ago

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8n1hKQULa9Y That is the link you are looking for.

[–]mromblesomble 2 points3 points ago

thank you very much

[–]Jemmani 0 points1 point ago

im your worst nightmare!

[–]arghnard -1 points0 points ago

Yep. It's a link alright.

[–]BBWasabi 0 points1 point ago

But not the one I was looking for.

[–]We_Have_To_Go_Back 1 point2 points ago

So, which action movie?

[–]ButterThatBacon 6 points7 points ago

[–][deleted] ago

[–]themooseiscool 12 points13 points ago

UHF. It's a movie.

[–]Wyrmshadow 1 point2 points ago

inappropriately cast ethnic groups?

[–]Geotis 1 point2 points ago

I like how Al lets go, like , "Eww! Go away!"

[–]genzahg 2 points3 points ago

I think he's going for the Badass Sneer.

[–]taqattack 1 point2 points ago

Imagination > Guns

[–]cyberjedi 1 point2 points ago

SPATULA CITY ! SPATULA CITY ! SPATULA CITY !

[–]dap_159 1 point2 points ago

Weird Al from UHF. Great movie. Not an action one, though.

[–]Precious_Zest 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, Weird Al needs to stop blowing up people with arrows in all these action movies, it's just excessive...

[–]LordOfGummies 1 point2 points ago

The worst is the inaccuracies pertaining to ammo. Most recent example Hershel in the season finale of Walking Dead. The fucking shotgun had over 9000 rounds.

[–]m0123n 1 point2 points ago

UHF will always get an upvote in my book. Even though I've seen this way to many times.

[–]soultron 1 point2 points ago

SUPPLIES!!!

[–]LawlCzar 1 point2 points ago

UHF might just be the greatest comedy ever made.

Shut up and watch it.

[–]JamoJustReddit 1 point2 points ago

I always get at when I meet people that haven't seen this hilarious movie.

[–]m8ushido 1 point2 points ago

Sweet zombie jeebus, I can't believe I have not watched it in so long. When I was a kid the greatest line was "LOOK! it stiicks" I'm getting to this rut after work

[–]MyFishDied 1 point2 points ago

UHF!

[–]FalconPaunch 1 point2 points ago

Well he is hip-firing...

[–]kristiana98 1 point2 points ago

Ah, my favorite movie. :)

[–]Fealiks 1 point2 points ago

Is Weird Al really that ripped?

[–]kitsy 6 points7 points ago

[–]WeirdAlYankovic 9 points10 points ago

Not my best look. Made me laugh though.

[–]Mel___Gibson 1 point2 points ago

You hate the paparazzi too, huh?

[–]schniggens 1 point2 points ago

You know what pisses me off? People who expect realism in action movies.

[–]DoubleAcesHigh 5 points6 points ago

Especially action movies with Weird Al in them.

[–]ptolatar 0 points1 point ago

Better yet, make him use a slingshot.

[–]Boogeyboogey 0 points1 point ago

The whole movie is available on youtube.

[–]cheesy_ninja45 0 points1 point ago

Especially when it's a small 4'5, 115 lb woman. AKA Nikita.

[–]gabora 0 points1 point ago

He's firing from the hip, of course he can't hit shit

[–]Darktidemage 0 points1 point ago

The new indiana jones (crystal skull) has this scene where a whole car filled with about 10 dudes with AKs is opening up full auto aimed at another car 10 feet away filled with 6 people and NO ONE is hit.

Loved that shit.

[–]genawesome 0 points1 point ago

It's divine intervention.

[–]WhatsGoingO_n 0 points1 point ago

I know right? I hate it when actors don't even PRETEND to draw back the bow.

[–]Willem20 0 points1 point ago

Typical Rambo movie

[–]ttnorac 0 points1 point ago

I'll be right back to the thread. I have a package that was supposed to be delivered to Channel 8.

[–]jumpinjohnnycakes 0 points1 point ago

Maybe your expectations are too high.

[–]Surely_Trustworthy -1 points0 points ago

This always pissed me off in TF2

FTFY

[–]Undeadhunter -1 points0 points ago

Sigh ... he's firing that bow completely wrong... If you try to shoot an arrow like that with a compound bow that's not adjusted for a 5 year old you wouldn't even get it open...
