FABIO2 Every Japophile who owns a katana should be forced to watch this scene over and over.
kingofthenothing My granddad, who fought in ww2 against the Japs, would agree, if he were still alive. He always thought karate and judo and other martial arts were funny. "You try to karate chop me. I'll have a gun. Who do you think will win?"
Hummana Hummana Hummana The escape from the mayan temple? The fight with the Nazi under the flying wing? The heads exploding during the opening of the Ark of the Covenant? No. None of those scenes was what we gushed about after seeing this in the theater. "He just pulled out his gun and POW shot the guy with the sword!" THAT was what we couldn't shut up about for the rest of the summer.
Pie Boy This was totally improvised. They actually rehearsed a huge sword-whip fight, but Ford got sick of doing all the takes. The result is over a million times more awesome.
Vicious Actually, he got physically sick (like takewithfood says.)
Sword guy was not happy with the decision.
zatojones sword guy should cash paycheck and be happy
