IRL that Drill Sergeant would be busted down to private and spend a year or two in the stockade and be dishonorably discharged for permanently disabling a recruit.
@@1973WashuYou mean to tell me this movie about the satirical exaggerated representation of a militaristic fascist state is unrealistic? Say it aint so!
Much underused imo. He was so good in Highlander, the next two villains pretty much tried to be him. He was terrifying in Shawshank, and he stole every scene he was in during Starship Troopers.
Rekaert: He killed it in Earth 2 which showed his range. Up till then he had played mostly villains. Earth 2 showed what he could do when turned loose with the drama and sensitive side.
also this is before the bug attack on Buenos Aires so it before the call to war was made so their training for war but not preparing for war, if they had notice before hand then they would be train for battle agaisnt the bugs.
@@CommanderM117They we’re already expecting war with the bugs, since at this point humans were already trying to colonize bugs planets and being attacked for it.
@@GuyN0ir they where prepared for war does not mean they where going to go to war, it was a training ground witch every nation today has without the expectation of war, as for the Civilians they were warned by the goverment not to do that they ignored them and got killed the Federation had no reason to belive the arachinid would perceive it as a threat but they did, plus i would point out that meteor may of bean traveling for year before the event of the Colonist, so it still the bug at fault not humanity. also with that argument why where they training them to fight humans if they where aware the bug would fight back why not train them for bug confict.
Thanks for sharing it, never noticed that, but the way he doesn't hesitate to ask him to put the hand on the wall really makes you realize it's not the first time he comes up with that
bgcorporation They basically had one of there Tank Bugs shoved a large rock up its thorax (that's use for firing plasma) to launch it into space at high velocity
@@MaxPowerzs or Thor could have pulled out the ax as it was buried in Thanos's chest. You know ripping it out would cause him to bleed out within seconds. Plus all that secondary damage it would cause him to go into shock. If Thor hadn't been so eager to torture him, it would ended because Thanos wouldn't be able to feel his fingers
"There are no dangerous weapons, only dangerous men. We're trying to teach you be dangerous to the enemy" is the general reasoning zim gives in the book, which is more satisfying.
@@justanobadi6655 nah, it did a great job. All of the symbolism was there, plain as day. Practically beats you over the head with it. An all-white cast of characters that live in Argentina? All of the officer uniforms being flat out SS uniforms but space? The whole "service guarantees citizenship" line? The whole film was pretty obviously mocking all of it by showing how absurd it was. The chuds that watched it just didn't get it
@@tompadfoot3065 and he decided to do all of that after not reading any of it. Normally satire comes from understanding of a subject and deftly critiquing it.
Just watched Captain America: The Winter Soldier again. In the opening fight scene some villain is trying to trigger alarm but cap disables his hand by throwing a knife. This dude was right.
The instructor in this movie is the perfect example of a man preparing individuals he cares about for the horror they are about to face. Father figure through and through.
Clancy Brown has played many very memorable roles. The Kurgan. The bully in Bad Boys who got his face smashed in by Sean Penn swinging a pillow case full of soda cans. This psychotic drill sergeant. The prison guard in Shawshank Redemption. But he will always be the voice of Mr. Krabs to me. I can't hear you! Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?
They might even take care of your brain, if you are still alive. But from a military logic point, a vegetable is just dead weight and waisted tax money.
True story time ... after I got out of the Army, I watched this movie . I actually started having flashbacks to basic training. Literally the only two things that did not happen was the knife throwing and a dumbass getting killed in a live fire exercise. But there was one guy who stuck his head up a little too far during low-crawl training and a 50 caliber round destroyed his k-pot. To this day, I’m not sure if the drill sergeants were more pissed off that he survived or that his helmet was destroyed... 🤔
Once, during one of the two-minute rest periods that were scattered sparsely through each day’s work, one of the boys-a kid named Ted Hendrick-asked, “Sergeant? I guess this knife throwing is fun…but why do we have to learn it? What possible use is it?” “Well,” answered Zim, “suppose all you have is a knife? Or maybe not even a knife? What do you do? Just say your prayers and die? Or wade in and make him buy it anyhow? Son, this is real-it’s not a checker game you can concede if you find yourself too far behind.” “But that’s just what I mean, sir. Suppose you aren’t armed at all? Or just one of these toadstickers, say? And the man you’re up against has all sorts of dangerous weapons? There’s nothing you can do about it; he’s got you licked on showdown.” Zim said almost gently, “You’ve got it all wrong, son. There’s no such thing as a ‘dangerous weapon.’” “Huh? Sir?” “There are no dangerous weapons; there are only dangerous men. We’re trying to teach you to be dangerous-to the enemy. Dangerous even without a knife. Deadly as long as you still have one hand or one foot and are still alive. If you don’t know what I mean, go read ‘Horatius at the Bridge’ or ‘The Death of the Bon Homme Richard’; they’re both in the Camp library. But take the case you first mentioned; I’m you and all you have is a knife. That target behind me-the one you’ve been missing, number three-is a sentry, armed with everything but an H-bomb. You’ve got to get him…quietly, at once, and without letting him call for help.” Zim turned slightly-thunk!-a knife he hadn’t even had in his hand was quivering in the center of target number three. “You see? Best to carry two knives-but get him you must, even barehanded.”
One hell of a knife but it is future so you never know what metals they could have found on other planets...Oh how i would like to get my hands on that stuff...
Naaah, the cadet was just ashamed to let such a good point go to waste, and just held his hand with the other hand in place, good enough to seem like it's bolted down. That's a masterful cadet!
That whole pole has a magnet at it's center, that's how he does it! Pity no cadet thought of throwing the knifes the other way! They'd have a field day!
Right through the tendons, that's 2 fingers permanently out of order. Maybe with surgery and 6 months of careful retraining he might get most of their function back.
Interesting note, if you examine it frame by frame at 0:36, it looks like they've digitally added a blood spurt effect over his hand before the knife actually contacts it. Also earlier within that second, you can see a weird editing error on the thrown knife where they've placed it over the beret of the trooper closest to the left of Ace Levy within the frame, despite that making no sense within the trajectory of the knife.
@@insidiouspancake5590 When it's midair it's definitely entirely digital, hence the editing error I mentioned. At a single frame the knife suddenly becomes embedded in his hand, which is probably where they started filming with a real prop that they embedded into a fake hand palm prosthetic that he's wearing.
The enemy can not throw the knife if you push the button

If you go frame by frame, you will notice how the CGI blood at 0:36 starts one frame before the knight penetrates his hand. You can go fram by frame with "," and "." buttons, which will go, respectively, back and forth.
