Tango & Cash is funny.
 
I just bought the dvd for 2 bucks yesterday. I never saw the whole film through as a kid - always bits and pieces. I watched half of it last night before falling asleep (from being tired, not from being bored). Awesome 80s action/comedy movie! I wouldn't be surprised if Brett Raetner did a sequel to this film, bringing back Stallone and Russell.


I liked these lines in the movie:
Cop: Who do you think you are? Rambo?
Stallone: Rambo is a pussy.


I also found it amusing that a prisoner was being held in a jail cel that looked like a locker room with toilets, and even more amusing that the Chinese dude was taking a piss before Kurt Russell walked in to interogate him.


I also liked the datedness of Kurt Russell's big gun. It must have been awesome looking in the 80s, but it looks retarded now.


I liked how Brion James was just casually walking around like a zombie before setting up Tango and Cash.


I can't take my eyes off Robert Z'Dar. Whenever he comes on screen, his face hypnotizes me.


Teri Hatcher was painfully bad in this movie as well. I didn't know she existed in films before HEAVEN'S PRISONERS.

I love Tango & Cash. It's cheesy as hell but so much fun.

I'll wait until they make a remake with Jonah Hill and Shia LaBeouf.

That movie is always fun to watch! Especially on very boring weekends. Love that movie.

DVD? This piece of 80's art wants to be appreciated on Blu Ray.

I didn't even know it was already available on BD. I need to track that disc down.

lol, the Internet Movie Firearm Database has a complete breakdown of the guns in Tango & Cash

Cash's stainless finish .357 Magnum revolver is actually pretty fucking cool. It's that gigantic 1980s-era laser sight that makes it look stupid

You have wonder now, then why wasn't Kurt Russell in the Expendables?

Sly asked him and Kurt turned him down.
Something about not being interested in ensemble acting right now.

Slinky: I'm not afraid of you. See that? I killed him.
Ray Tango: Congratulations.
Slinky: He was my best friend.
[Ray Tango looks up bewildered]
Slinky: Crazy people aren't afraid of anybody.

The "congratulations" line was perfect.

The trailer/TV spots showed a deleted scene where Tango blows the back of someone's car with a shotgun. Is this scene included on the Blu?
