Back in sites with fire pit, BBQ and picnic tables. Well maintained. Friendly staff. Great place to hike with dogs on sand dunes and beach. Road noise. Nice laundry, club house and small gym. Limited store supplies. - RVLuver

We. looked at their web page and couldn't find a check-in time. We arrived at the park at 12:15 pm and were told we couldn't check in til 1 PM and would have to leave the park and park on the street. My RV and tow is 67 ft so this wasn't a easy task, but we did it. We were told our space were still occupied but as we left the park to park on the street we passed our spaces and they were both empty. Poor service at that point.
We finally checked in and this is one of the more expensive parks that we been too. Are spots were very spacious and easy to get into. They have a small patio with the table, barbecue and fire pit. We walked around the park, they do not have a dog park, and do not provide poop bags, no hot tub no swimming pool. But this park is located very close to Monterey and Carmel. The beach is only a couple hundred yards away nice walked out a little pathway dogs are welcome on the beach to the right there can be off leashed and to the left that must be on leash. The park is clean and well-kept but for the price I don't think it's worth it. - Crbus

Stayed here in a 36 ft motorhome. Had to back in. but no trouble at all. Sites are clean, and I barely heard any freeway noise. Tent campers were directly behind us. Lucky no sketchy people. Staff is very attentive. Delivered firewood to the campsite. Already made reservations for next year. - Edward972

I agree with the previous review. The other parks in the area were full, but this is close to the Aquarium and the 17-mile drive. Just a parking lot but it served our purpose for one night just fine. - Bob2013
Jul 2011 - $50.00
This "campground" is just a parking lot on the property of a motel. The sites are very narrow and many RV's with slides on both sides will not be able open all (or any) of them. There is 30 amp electric and water hookups and a dump station on the property. However, it's right in Monterey and we had no trouble getting a site on short notice (the other two local parks were both full). It's perfectly fine for it's intended use. A place to park for a night or two while you explore Monterey. I had a hard time deciding how to rate this place and settled on a 5/10. It's a parking lot (and a small one at that) but if you're prepared for that and it's what you're looking for, there's nothing wrong with it at all. - OpenTrackRacer

Check in was friendly. Park is on edge of golf course. They have a grill at the pro shop area where you can eat. Restrooms and showers were clean. Lots are near each other. Site surface is asphalt and gravel. - Colorado Trio
Jul 2016 - $35.00
Location of this RV park is just about the only good thing about it. It is located within a golf course but as you turn into the RV park, the landscaping and maintenance stops. The grass is either overgrown or dead, trees and bushes are not maintained. It's as if the general manager is purposely trying to neglect this area in hopes that it will disappear. The sites are crumbling and haven't been updated or maintained in years, perhaps decades. There is an electric post that we were told broke months ago, that has not yet been repaired, so the spot goes unused. The staff just doesn't care. The camp host is nosey and when I complained about the state of the park, just shrugged her shoulders and said it wasn't her problem.
The laundry facilities are old and one washer is broken. The women's bathroom had a major leak in one of the toilets while we stayed here, and it took several days before it was addressed. I have visited here a few times and it is just getting worse. I will return as it's still the least expensive in the area, but might look into one of the state parks in the area as an alternative. This is one sad park! - RVGma

It is all about location. This has our 3rd stay at the campground and were disappointed on how it is being un-kept. Long grass and weeds and the table patio areas full of debris. Management should clean the place up. That being said, it is still a bargain for its outstanding location. I only picked up 6 golf balls in our stay. - Joe Brunold

We came off season and the second road was closed forcing us to climb a sixteen % grade to get to the campsite. The campsites were on a hill, very small, and very difficult to get into. Although we were told the race track would be quiet, we were on curve 5 and almost everyday there was a driving school happening with lots of screeching tires. If you are a race fan, you might love it. We did not. There is also a gun range next door and the sound of guns happened most weekend mornings. Hookups are electric and water only and the dump station is very difficult to get into. The sites themselves were not clean with numerous beer caps littered throughout. The bathrooms were clean and the staff was very helpful, but we would never stay here again. We would like to thank the work kamper who let us exit via the closed road to avoid a sixteen percent grade on the way down. - Lee and Trace
Oct 2015 - $37.00
Beautiful mountain top views. 105 wide sites with water/electric hookups. One easy access dump for all. On the Laguna Seca Raceway but is surprisingly quiet during the day and absolutely peaceful at night.
RV and tent camping allowed. Dogs allowed. Fort Ord National Monument trail head. Ten minutes from Monterey and all its activities, restaurants and shopping. Monthly bike riding on the track. - pamelaham
Jul 2015 - $41.00
Close to Monterey. Sites are gravel and fairly level with a picnic table and fire ring. The restrooms / showers were clean, but there's no privacy in the showers. The water only stayed on for about 25 seconds. After holding the button in to try and keep it on, the water would then not stop for the longest time. There was no light switch in the restrooms; I think the lights were on a timer. The drive up to the campground from the entrance is steep, but the views and breeze are great. The base rate is $37 per night, but they charged us an extra $2 per dog per night. That made the overall nightly rate a bit pricey, but we'd definitely stay here again. - Ursula A

Nothing special apart from friendly welcome, and good price compared with other RV parks around Monteray (this was the most expensive site on a 19 day trip). Good WIFI. A little noisy as next to an airport. No fire pits or BBQs. - PCP
May 2016 - $45.00
Tight getting in and out. Sites are tight. Campground is 70 years old and has only added wifi (very poor) since opening. Nothing is level, every other site has connections on the wrong side. Not worth the price. - ta96silver
Apr 2016 - $45.00
Positives: The two hosts were friendly and helpful. The bathrooms and showers were very clean. Power was clean and water pressure was fine. Water was soft unlike my home in AZ where big rocks fall out of the faucet. Airport noise was negligible and the golfers must be improving because no balls came over the tall netting. The washer and dryer were practically brand new and cost was reasonable.
BIG Positive: It's close to everything Monterey. Bus stop is right outside and free trolley downtown runs regularly.
Negatives: Big dip at entrance is a tail dragger. We disconnected toad before arrival. On departure, didn't connect until outside park and even removed tow bar and drop, but still dragged skid angle irons. The shower hot water takes forever to get hot (5-8 minutes) which is odd since there are signs everywhere reminding people about CA drought. Each shower probably wastes 20-30 gallons.
BIG Negative: Sewer connections require 30' - 35' hose AND run uphill on one side of the park. Whoever designed this should be required to dump all guests' tanks for a year to learn why it's a "crappy" layout. Every space angles down about 6" for every 10' so our 16' wheelbase needed about 10", lifting the front wheels off the ground by 4 inches, not an optimal position. - LM&TinView

There are only a few places to stay when visiting in a RV in the Monterey/Santa Cruz area. We found Moss Landing a great halfway point and love this KOA. You are protected by fencing which is nice. Not many young children running around and more of a mature group which is nice for a more quiet trip. This park does not have much for amenities but does have laundry room, community fire pit and nice green lawn!! You can hear the sea lions and seagulls, which I love. The staff is amazing! Extremely accommodating and friendly. Sites are skinny but if you don't spend a major amount of time outside you are good. Pads are concrete and level. Small patio for picnic table and that is about it. Full hook up offering both 30/50. Cable TV and the satellite availability is great. Wireless is spotty. We frequent this place twice a year. Highly recommend. - RGETAWAY
Apr 2016 - $78.00
This KOA doesn't offer any great views but it is in a great location. Big rigs can take Hwy 156 off Hwy 101 to Hwy 1. Basics: nice laundry room, well kept grounds & sites with minimum leveling needed, clean, large showers, easy access off hwy 1, 3 well rated restaurants in walking distance, fresh fruit & vegies, and easy access to the marina whale watching cruises. From this location we were able to visit Monterey, Carmel, and a drive down hwy 1 to the Big Sur area. - 2togoNebraska
Mar 2016 - $65.00
The biggest plus about this park is its location: close to Monterey Aquarium, lots of beaches, and great birding. On the advice of a local we took a day trip north to Capitola, which was a neat thing to do. The park itself is very small with only one road in and out so when a caravan of 17 or so rigs came through, it tied up access. Very inconvenient. They kind of overdo the regulations as well -- with signs in the restroom telling you where to hang up your towel and things like that. But the restrooms were very clean. - mlbw

This is a first come first serve campground, just outside of Monterey. It has a very forest like feel, with trees and bushes. Our site was fairly level and spacious. There were lockers outside of the shower/bath house, and it seemed to us that others who were not campground guests used these facilities. They were loud, impolite and sloppy. - Vic and Marsha
Jun 2014 - $27.00
Real nice small, no hookup campground. Some sites not level. Narrow roads going in. Great location but not really walkable to tourist attractions. One of those little gems of a county or city camp ground that you sometimes run into. Good showers and a dump station. - haole hiker

Excellent CG. However, check the parks website before taking a big rig up there as the parking would be tight (21' max?). Also, the road to CG is narrow and windy. I would stay here again. - SteveE

The sites are roomy, basically this is a big, dirt parking lot with pedestals for electric (30 & 50 amp) and water. No pump out at sites but there is a dump station for $5.00. No bathrooms or showers here. Good location for visiting Monterey and Carmel. Easy to maneuver in our 45' RV. Would stay here again for sure. I would give a higher rating if there was grass or gravel at the sites but with this dry climate dirt flies everywhere!! - SNL
Jul 2014 - $20.00
We pulled into the parking area and thought we were at an RV Storage facility. The camping fee is scheduled to go up to $25 on August 1 and it does not include the dump fee. Parking area is in need of care and tables at campsites are in dismal shape. The camp host is friendly and the location is convenient to the freeway and town, but this is not a place we'd want to stay here for more an overnight stop. - hbcamper

VERY steep entry into park. Tight turn onto park road, tight turns and steep hills within park. That said, obviously an older park but very well kept and nice friendly staff. We were in 135, probably best site for getting in and out of, others were fairly tight, but all were doable with patience. Sites were pretty close together, but weather was exquisite, especially after three days through the desert! Great central location to see the sights. - 7 on the road
Oct 2014 - $50.00
Although we were a little reluctant to stay due to some prior park ratings, we were quite glad that we decided to. We got lucky and were placed in the back row along the tree line and away from the the highway. We could still hear traffic but it was not distracting. They have a very nice pool area and although it was quite warm when we were visiting, the water was very cool. Too cold for these old bones. It is obviously an older park with a very unique layout. They explained that this is not a "destination park" but more for convenient stops en route to other areas. We stayed for 6 nights and did not regret it at all. Our only problem was with the 30 amp electric. We had to be very careful and if the A/C was on, we tried to keep everything else off or it would pop. Other than that, it was a delightful stay. The area is very interesting and not far from the coast. We explored from Moss Landing down through Lucia south of Big Sur. The Old Fishermans Wharf at Monterey Bay was a real highlight of this visit. If you are just traveling through, I would recommend this as a good place to stop. - KPsunshine

It was so great to return to our favorite RV park, in our 45' coach. Camped here many times. It is just far enough away from Carmel to be in the sun so weather is perfect. It is quiet, peaceful, and nicely landscaped. Sites are wide with 8' tall hedges between, creating privacy.
Owners are very friendly and go out of their way to make sure your stay meets your expectations. Owner is constantly improving the park. We especially like the stamped concrete patios on the premium sites.
Expensive, but any place around Carmel is expensive. It is well worth it in our opinion. Park is very dog friendly with a wonderful maintained grass field for dogs to play in. Park is so relaxing it is hard to motivate ones self to leave. - carguy

We were not happy with this place. The owners were rude, the spaces are very tight, there was dog poop everywhere on the green patch of lawn behind us and there is a very narrow bridge and road to get there. We will not be back, mostly because of the rude owners. - redtulip
Jul 2015 - $40.00
Extremely tight road to get to this place, we have 40 foot Class A Motorhome, meeting oncoming traffic is not a good thing. Was maneuverable in the big rig, spots are tight slide outs touch the foliage dividers separating spots. We didn't use anything other than water, power and septic. Friendly staff. Had we been told about the road to get there, we would have found another place elsewhere. Seems that there are many full time residents, as traffic in and out before and after work hours was the most of the traffic. One other rig showed up in our 3 day stay. Dog friendly too! Nothing much to be entertained by at this place. We more than likely would stay again if in the area. Just be sure to reserve a spot ahead of time. Limited restrooms and two showers per sex. - C.J.

NFL approves $200M financing for new Falcons stadium
The National Football League has approved $200 million in financing for the construction of the new Falcons stadium.
G-4 financing is an NFL program that supports new stadium construction by providing a combination of grants and loans, Channel 2 reporter Jim Strickland said.
"We are pleased with the outcome of today's vote, and we look forward to continued progress in designing and constructing the new multipurpose stadium over the next four years. We, along with our city of Atlanta and state of Georgia partners, are excited to participate in a project that will benefit the city and state for many years to come," Blank said.
An additional $200 million in funding for the stadium will come from Atlanta's future hotel-motel tax revenue. The rest of the funding for the $1 billion stadium will come from Blank and the Falcons.
Plans for the stadium call for it to open in time for the 2017 NFL season.

What a great idea. I changed from mid range to premium a few years back. Our commute takes us across some interesting roads where maximum grip and response is a must. When I saw the cross climate and imagined these roads in the wet, cold and dark it was a no brainer. They are quiet, give a comfy ride and seem to fair better on wet grass than some of the 4x4's in the school car park!

Just out of curiosity, I've listed some classic shootouts from varous films. I'll be curious to see which comes out on top, if any. I've excluded war movie shootouts to keep it focused.

I voted that you missed one. The motel shootout near the end of LA Confidential. Very realistic, no 100 round magazines, the good guys actually get seriously hurt (never happens in most movies, the bad guys are very poor shots).
March 2, 2003, 02:30 PM
....really good discription of battle rifles in play in a urban environment.
(the ending of Scarface?)
March 2, 2003, 02:43 PM
you missed all of KING of NEW YORK.
there must be half a dozen in that movie alone that beat the dog snot out of anything you listed.
"them's fo da bullet holes, punta!"
March 2, 2003, 02:47 PM
My favorite is the "Shootout in the Hall of Mirrors", with Orson Welles in a black& white movie shot in San Francisco. I'm trying to find the name of the film & will get back to you.
Not many rounds fired in this one, but a whole bunch of bad karma from the busted mirrors! A very intense and confusing scene, and a favorite of movie buffs - who aren't necessarily gun buffs.
Mike Irwin
March 2, 2003, 02:58 PM
Second vote for the Victory Motel shootout in L.A. Confidential.
March 2, 2003, 03:28 PM
was a scene from "The Lady from Shanghai", filmed in 1984. Welles directed and starred in the film. Rita Hayworth was the "Lady".
The hall of mirrors was in a fun house; some reflections were grotuesquely distorted, and others were normal. The adversaries were racking up years & years of bad luck while trying to shoot each other.
March 2, 2003, 03:35 PM
I was in Blockbuster today and was going to rent L.A. Confidential. I`d seen it before. They had it for sale on DVD so I bought it instead.:)
There was a movie on some time ago that I caught about 4 a.m. Don`t recall who was in it but in the final shootout, at least one guy did a very credible job of constantly reloading a 1911 one handed. He, along with everybody else had been wounded.
Another "B" type showed a shootout in a warehouse. The GG drops a mag and is reloading. One of the BGs hears the mag drop and rushes out to nail the GG. The GG promptly shoots him with the round he left in the chamber! :cool: He even says something about it as the BG looks surprised.:D
March 2, 2003, 03:48 PM
I don't know how you guys could vote that over john wayne twirlin a winchester on horseback!! FILL YER HAND YOU SOB!
March 2, 2003, 03:58 PM
I like the showdown in Way of the Gun. Contrived plot, easiest "border crossings" ever filmed, but great gun scenes. I like the fact that the characters miss. I like that they actually have to reload. No one gets thrown back 10 feet by being hit. Leaping about makes you miss. The 1911s are depicted as CQB pistols used by serious gunmen rather than their using other some fad pieces. One hand auto reloads! The "old school" uses revos. The shotgunning was well done. The tactical movement wasn't too bad. Bulletproof vests won't save you from bleeding out on hits elsewhere. The use of cover was realistic.
My only complaints other than the cheesey plot? Everyone, despite multiple on screen reloads, was not carrying as much ammo as their garb would indicate. I also cannot stand the acting "ability" of Juliette Lewis, whose ongoing career baffles me to no end.
Favorite line: "I think a plan is a list of things that don't happen."
Favorite alternate shootout was Nick Nolte's Texas Ranger in Extreme Prejudice taking on the some BGs at a roadhouse ambush by himself in the first third of the film. He seemed the personification of the lone Texas lawman.
Bob Locke
March 2, 2003, 04:45 PM
I voted for "Heat", also, but I'm glad you included the "Missed One" option.
Another favorite of mine is the end game at Ryan's house in "Patriot Games". NVG's, an unloaded shotgun getting used as a club (which we all know is the ONLY thing an unloaded gun is good for), silencer(s), SMG's. Good stuff, IMO.
And Rooster Cogburn is still the greatest movie lawman EVER! :D
March 2, 2003, 04:59 PM
missed that shootout at end of LA Con...:cool:
March 2, 2003, 05:01 PM
i really liked the scene in matrix... all the brass just flying...
March 2, 2003, 06:56 PM
Way of the Gun
Gonna have to see LA Confidential (ok so I'm behind)
Arrgg, so many good ones...
March 2, 2003, 09:29 PM
The gun fight in Matrix is great, but what you should ask is " what is the best gun fight one liner." for me and the wife it is the line from true Grit "Fill your hand you S@# of a B%$!&"
March 2, 2003, 09:56 PM
I also agree the final "shootout scene" in Way of the Gun is very good. It got my vote. They utlized the 1911's quite well (especially the one handed mag changes).
March 2, 2003, 10:13 PM
Missed several, actually.
Sylvester Stallone in Cobra (Him and partner use 1911s)
Nick Nolte in Extreme Prejudice (uses a 1911 very well)
Chuck Norris in Code of Silence, Invasion USA
Steven Seagal in Under Siege (In fact many of his movies)
Al Pacino in Scarface
Just to name a few.:D
March 2, 2003, 10:18 PM
I'd have voted for the sniping scene in Way of the Gun. For what other movie has a director gone into the desert to record realistic sound effects? I'm not sure how many other movies have gotten rifle flash/sound timing right, but there certainly aren't many.
dinosaur, not sure about the second scene, but the first is almost definitely Way of the Gun.
Boats, I agree about the ammo situation. And who goes into a gunfight with a galil and only two magazines for it?

March 2, 2003, 10:28 PM
Star Wars, when the stormtroopers board Leia's blockade runner. R2 and C3P0 moving through the shootout. Classic.
March 3, 2003, 05:42 AM
Don't forget:
1) The hotel shootout in "The Getaway" with Steve McQueen and Ali MacGraw.
2) The shootout at the end of "Scarface" with Al Pacino. ( Stevie-Ray caught this one).
3) Ohhh, the shootout at the end of "True Romance" with Christian Slater & Patricia Arquette. Gota be in top 3.
4) All the Gun-Kata in Equilibrium. Heh.

Heat and the shootout at the end of Thief.:)
March 3, 2003, 08:10 AM
how about the sniping scene in the usual suspects w/ the aug. "oswald was a pussy".
March 3, 2003, 09:04 AM
Bruce willis and a pair of 1911 45 auto's. Not perfect but he does reload! They even use an old walker colt in the last scene! great shoot outs.
March 3, 2003, 09:32 AM
The shootout in the hotel in Taxi Driver has to be my favorite shootout scene. (Still the best fight scene is the Rabbit in MP: The Search For The Holy Grail :D )
March 3, 2003, 09:42 AM
I voted MATRIX, but also loved STREETS OF FIRE and anything with Chow Yun Fat. What happened with THE KILLER? Another great shoot 'em up movie, YEAR OF THE DRAGON with Micky Rourke and John Lone. Also, GOODFELLAS -- love that scene where Henry Hill pistol whips the neighbor for tossing his girlfriend out of moving car. :evil:
March 3, 2003, 09:44 AM
Call me old fashioned but I think the Wild Bunch has some of the best shootout scenes ever depicted, especially the finale. Of course, who can forget Duke Wayne in True Grit and the Shootist? Hard to narrow it down to just one.
March 3, 2003, 09:51 AM
Heat and Way of the Gun. Both have those small details which make me grin when I watch these flicks again...
Realistic outdoor sounds.... Benicio clearing a shotgun jam... Benicio loading the shotgun... Bodyguards decocking those USPs... Val Kilmer doing the reload the right way in the bank robbery scene... Wounded, one handed, revolver, etc reloads in WOTG.... Barely audible slide release click in the final showdown in WOTG... etc etc...
L.A. Confidential is a very close second.
Tom C.
March 3, 2003, 09:57 AM
How about the shootout at the OK Corral in Tombstone? May have actually happened in about that way.
Motel shoot out at the end of LA Confidential.
Gary Cooper in Sgt. York shooting it out with a German machine gun battalion and winning.
Shootout in Wild Bunch for number of rounds expended and people killed.
Oleg Volk
March 3, 2003, 10:19 AM
The new classic End of a Feral Pumpkin (http://www.olegvolk.net/newphotos/pumpkinshoot2.rm) -- most realistic props because real guns and real victims were used.
March 3, 2003, 12:34 PM
March 3, 2003, 12:48 PM
Tombstone is very cool, but Doc Holliday's 3-shout side-by-side shotgun disqualifies the OK Corral scene from "Best Shootout" IMO. I said Way of the Gun - so many great little details in it.
March 3, 2003, 12:54 PM
I can't believe that nobody has mentioned William Munny taking out the trash in the saloon in "Unforgiven". It has my vote.
March 3, 2003, 01:05 PM
Guys, I think it is obvious. We like LOUD movies.
I hooked up my new toy(s) and tested 'em over the weekend. An outfit called Parts Express has these little dealies called Aura Bass Shakers on closeout for $30 a pair. Basically they're subwoofers without the sound. They vibrate/shake, and you feel the bass rather than hear it.
Bolted a pair to my couch, fired up an old amp (they only use 25 watts) that I split off my subwoofer output, and then checked out Saving Private Ryan.
Basically, you get the "feel" that a loud subwoofer gives to action scenes, but without a lot of the noise/external vibration/neighbors getting upset and calling the cops because of the firefight in your living room.
Guys, if you like watching stuff blow up, but your significant other/neighbors don't enjoy it quite so much, get at least one pair of these things. I tried switching my sub off, and then watching stuff, and the things work - I've ordered a second pair for the couch, and my friend Kay is getting a couple of pairs. She _really_ liked 'em - we watched Road to Perdition, and they added quite a bit to the tommyguns.
March 3, 2003, 01:26 PM
I liked the Shootout/Best Car Chase ever in Ronin, But you can't beat Deniro and Pacino in the same movie battling it out. So I voted for Heat.
March 3, 2003, 01:26 PM
Last Man Standing!
There is no scene to mention since the whole movie is basically a shootout. It was the first movie I watched with my wife on our DVD/w suround sound.
I had to have the volume up because the actors whisper (hate that). In between the whispers, Bruce W empties his .45 on a regular basis.
My wife won't watch that movie anymore....
March 3, 2003, 04:50 PM
My father LOVES "Unforgiven." I got it for him on DVD and he plays it over and over again -- that very bar scene. He also loves that movie where Clint plays a dead guy coming back to the town for revenge. Forget the name but it has great gun fight scenes. Was it "Pale Rider?" There's a funny scene where he has the men of the town paint everything red to which one replies: "Okay, I'll paint it red, but it'll look like Hell." :evil:
March 3, 2003, 08:11 PM
Way of the Gun is my favorite for 'realism' - so it got the vote here.
Matrix and Hard Boiled for over the top-brass flying-invite the friends over-entertainment.
Last Man Standing and The Man with No Name westerns for that 'gritty' feel that makes you walk around being a smart *** for two days after. :D
March 3, 2003, 09:51 PM
Yeah, I realize it's completely unrealistic but
The building assault in the Matrix leaves the hair standing up on the back of my neck!
I love the slow motion with the shell casings hitting the floor!
Guns! Guns! Guns!
Harold Mayo
March 3, 2003, 09:53 PM
Another vote for Extreme Prejudice.
That was when Nick Nolte was still a man.
Another good scene was the very beginning of The Shootist where the bandit gets shot by John Wayne with the little derringer...I loved the dialogue:
Bandit: (forget the exact words but wanted John Wayne's wallet)
John Wayne: Here ya go...AND A LITTLE SUMTHIN' EXTRA!! (as he throws his wallet on the ground, drawing a derringer at the same time and shooting the guy, though not killing him...)
El Rojo
March 3, 2003, 11:23 PM
Steven Segal was in a movie once (yeah amazing!). Anyway, in this movie, the bad guys shot up his car. Well after they wasted the car full-auto, they stood around and stared in awe. He comes rolling out from the far side somehow alive. He tells them to put down their guns, he had a pistol of some sort. One of the guys says, "Lets rush him guys, he can't get us all." Segal instantly shoots him! Then he says, "Ok, who else wants to rush me?" For me, that was pretty impressive. No small talk, no BS, he stopped that idea cold in its tracks. Not really a great shootout, but it was simple and to the point.
Another favorite was "Unforgiven". When Eastwood shoots the bartender. The bad guys says, "How can you shoot an unarmed man?" in disgust. Eastwood replies, "Well he should have armed himself." I thought that was a good one.
March 4, 2003, 12:15 AM
I must be an old romantic for the oldies.
I vote The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
The music, the eyes, the drama, the unloaded gun! More to a good shootout scene than bang bang bang, sometimes. LOL
March 4, 2003, 06:35 PM
best shoot out Steve Mc Queen in The Getaway in the hotel at the end not counting the SAND PEEBLES ,sorry I like Steve O. Thanks

March 4, 2003, 08:00 PM
For sheer gunalicious unrealistic firepower insanity, you can't beat the hospital shootout in "Hard Boiled.
Just curious, for everyone who voted for Heat, how many of you have even seen the hospital shootout in Hard Boiled? I mean, like, whoa.
March 4, 2003, 08:14 PM
I did vote for HEAT also ..... gotta say, ain't seen the ''Hard Bioled'' .... sounds like I should!!Steven Segal was in a movie once (yeah amazing!). Anyway, in this movie, the bad guys shot up his car. Well after they wasted the car full-auto, they stood around and stared in awe. He comes rolling out from the far side somehow alive. He tells them to put down their guns, he had a pistol of some sort. One of the guys says, "Lets rush him guys, he can't get us all." Segal instantly shoots him! Watched that again other day . that was ''Beyond the law'' ...... good in places but some typical ''over the top'' Segal and as for all that full auto not touchin him ..... well!!:rolleyes: In Hollywood terms I guess, quite a good scene.
Sean Smith
March 5, 2003, 07:27 AM
Well, "Heat" is much more realistic than "Hard Boiled." But the hospital shootout in the latter movie is just a never-ending led-slinging monster.
I mean that in a good way. :evil:
March 5, 2003, 07:56 AM
I just finished watching Enemy of the State, that last shootout in that is pretty slick., i wonder if they were trying to say something, the way the ALL the italian mobsters had berettas ;)
March 5, 2003, 12:02 PM
HEAT still is one of the best IMHO for shootout scenes :cool:
March 5, 2003, 01:29 PM
From a believability standpoint, The Way of The Gun wins it for me. For a purely entertaining and still being reasonably tactically correct, Heat.
I voted for Heat. :p
March 5, 2003, 02:05 PM
You missed unusual and interesting filming of shots in both The Sniper w/ Tom Berenger and The Three Kings about the Gulf War.
BEST LINE IN GUNFIGHT...Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man While engaged in gunfight discussing cost of ammunition vs bad guys killed. Bad Guys advance firing full auto "Here they come and THEY'RE SPENDING A FORTUNE!" Cheesy movie but excellent line! :D

With a killer surround sound system and a subwoofer, it Rocks!!
You can literaly feel the CAR-15's dumpin' rounds downrange.:evil:
March 5, 2003, 07:00 PM
colors..i think that movie has alot of great scenes.
March 5, 2003, 11:38 PM
I really liked that scene in Heat, but I think you forgot the card game shootout in Boondock Saints. "There was a SHOOTOUT!!!!" (or something along that line)
March 6, 2003, 12:00 AM
Now these results are pretty interesting. It seems the group favors realistic shootouts in "Heat" and "Way of the Gun" than the more unrealistic shootouts, no matter how cool some of them are.
My own theory--it's the SOUND as much as the tactics. Heat and Way of the Gun use the actual sound of the firearms. Like "Black Hawk Down." For those of us with more range time than your average movie goer, it makes all the difference.
Most gun sounds are either just .38 Special blanks or some high-tech combination of cannons and other assorted noises, like the shotgun sounds in the Terminator movies. There's nothing like the sound of the real thing.
March 6, 2003, 12:16 AM
I voted for Heat. I have yet to see any other shootouts come close to Heat.
I also like the oneliners in Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. I got this DVD for 9.99.
How about Untouchables? Alot of really old 1911s, and alot of Tommy Guns. Untouchables has alot of dcent gun stuff in it. My DVD was 14.99.
Another fun shootout is Replacement Killers. This movie has ALOT of shooting. Replacement Killers is pretty much a 1 hour and 45 minute commerical for the 92FS. Fun DVD.
March 6, 2003, 02:37 AM
Anyone remember the movie "FACE OFF"? It had John Travolta as a cop and Nicholas Cage as the bad guy, they surgicaly traded faces. What a good Movie! Had some terrific shootout scenes in too! :D
March 6, 2003, 08:56 AM
Anybody mention 3000 Miles to Graceland? 3000 Miles to Graceland (http://www.epinions.com/content_91967557252)
March 6, 2003, 09:15 AM
Best overall: Way of the Gun.
Best line: John Wayne in True Grit.
Best "My ears are bleeding and I've got that funny feeling down low" scene: final shoot out in Heat.
March 6, 2003, 09:38 AM
The shootout between Dan Akroyd and John Cusack at the end of Grosse Point Blank. OK, it had some flaws, with John checking in periodically with Minne Driver in the middle of the fight, but at least folks where hiding, reloading, and running out of ammo!
And oh, I voted for Heat.
March 6, 2003, 12:02 PM
Can't think of just in terms of one isolated scene - I always evaluate it in terms of the whole movie
So, movies
True Grit
The Shootist
The Unforgiven
High Plains Drifter
BlackHawk Down
Saving Private Ryan
We Were Soldiers
not a big fan never seen heat, way of the gun ect...but
The Godfather
Last Man Standing
Sci Fi
Lots of great oldies - but very few really great gun flicks.
March 7, 2003, 01:42 AM
Another vote for Christian Slater in True Romance. The hotel room shoot-out gives a pretty severe pucker factor.
However, the most classic scene in the movie is where Dennis Hopper explains to the Sicilian mob (Christopher Walken) why Sicilians have dark skin and brown eyes, a brief shooting scene ensues Hoppers remarks.
Jim March
March 7, 2003, 02:11 AM
My vote:
Final shootout in Unforgiven.
The whole movie you're seeing Munny as an old washed-out has-been.
Then he gets pissed.
The final close-range gunfight in Equilibrium with all the blocks and fast moves is just unprecidented. Unrealistic as hell but my God, just awesome :).
March 7, 2003, 04:55 AM
Best sci-fi shootout?
The Matrix period end of story.
Equilibrium, T2, Aliens are all fantastic, but The Matrix trumps them all. They had to invent new ways of shooting a movie just to get the action scenes filmed.
Best horror movie shootout?
Dawn of the Dead. The scene where they clean out the sporting goods store is classic.
Best crime movie shootout?
Way of the Gun, and Heat. (But those are both self-evident.)
The Professional is up there.
Also, the scene in Godfather I where Michael Corleone shoots the guy in the restauarant. The tension is just awesome.
Best all-out attempt to simulate unending walls of lead?
The hospital shootout in Hard Boiled is a thing of beauty. And they use everything from sound-suppressed Beretta 92's to MP5's, Calico's, a FAMAS, a contender, and an M203 (among many others.)
Runner up is The Killer. Not as much lead, but a most excellent mellowdrama. (I love the bit where Chow Yun takes his tie off and turns it into an armband to mourn his fallen comrade.)
Best shootout in a western?
Hands down, Sam Peckinpah's The Wild Bunch. A small group of guys take on the Mexican army, and there's a beltfed involved.
March 7, 2003, 05:31 AM
They may be obscure but these are really great movies.
Valdez is Coming staring Burt Lancaster
Tom Horn staring Steve McQueen
Death Hunt staring Lee Marvin and Charles Bronson
Liberty Valance staring Lee Marvin, James Stewart, and the Duke
March 7, 2003, 06:54 AM
Ok fess up. How many of you have actually seen all the movies listed?
I voted for Hard Boiled, because of the sheer intensity of it. And I really don't rely on Hollywood (or Hong Kong in this case) to teach me firearm safety, (or history or politics or much of any thing come to think of it.) Heat had a great scene, but it was rather tame compared to Woo's films.
Was it "Pale Rider?" There's a funny scene where he has the men of the town paint everything red to which one replies: "Okay, I'll paint it red, but it'll look like Hell."
That was High Planes Drifter
March 7, 2003, 07:06 AM
"Did I fire six shots, or only five?"...the final scene in "Dirty Harry"...not too realistic, but very entertaining.
March 7, 2003, 01:34 PM
Valdez is Coming! Nice one, just watched it last night.
For another good but obscure Western, check out "Hombre" with Paul Newman. The final shootout seems very realistic: quick and nasty, with people taking multiple rounds before going down.
Both of these flicks started as Elmore Leonard novels.
March 7, 2003, 01:59 PM
Back when I had a TV, the Wild Bunch final shootout was a favorite to cue up while cleaning guns.
March 7, 2003, 02:09 PM
Agree, the little "walk to eternity" by the Wild Bunch just prior to the shootout sends chills up and down my spine.
I say again, did anybody see 3000 Miles to Graceland? Over.
March 7, 2003, 04:32 PM
Yeah, and I've been trying to forget it.
If you haven't seen A Better Tomorrow and A Better Tomorrow II, see 'em. Chow Yun Fat and Woo. Kinda hokey, kinda stupid, lots of shooting.
Got my second set of bass shakers installed in the couch last night. If you've got a home theater setup, you've GOT to locate some. You feel the stuff going down.
March 7, 2003, 05:52 PM
I also voted for Heat but I have to confess that the scene from The Patriot where Mel Gibson and his sons ambush and take on those Red Coats got me pumping.
Average Guy
March 7, 2003, 07:25 PM
Although The Way of the Gun is my favorite GUN movie, I voted for Hard-Boiled as "best" (as opposed to "most realistic").
My reaction to the final gun battles:
WotG: "Man, that's refreshing. Reloads and everything."
HB: "Ohmygod, I can't believe this is still going on!" I walked out of the theatre in a daze. Hard-Boiled was to movies what Nine Inch Nails' Pretty Hate Machine was to music. When it came out, it changed everything in its genre.
I say again, did anybody see 3000 Miles to Graceland? Over.
Nobody who wants to admit it. :D Out.
March 7, 2003, 07:37 PM
Another vote for "Heat" that scene has to be one ofthe most action packed 2 minutes.
But BlackHawk Down has some great scene's in it as well. I think Blackhawk Down is a much better movie, but Heat is the best shoot out.
Until Sunday.......... I'm going to see Tears of The Sun on Sunday morning.
March 7, 2003, 07:44 PM
black hawk down
Hunt Greer
March 8, 2003, 12:49 AM
I voted for "same film, different shootout" for the first shootout in THE WILD BUNCH, where there are a whole bunch of scraggly "deputies" set up to ambush the bunch of holdup men in army uniforms WITHOUT TELLING THE TOWNSPEOPLE!!!:cuss: :cuss: :cuss: . Very good depiction of then-current weapons and usage.
March 8, 2003, 12:56 AM
How could I have left out "Death Hunt"!? Well I'll have to rent it again as punishment :D
March 8, 2003, 04:59 AM
For forgetting Death Hunt, you need to watch;
1. Death Hunt
2. Last Train From Gun Hill
3. The Ben Johnson Movie of your choice.
Now go and take your punishment like a man. :D

Ahh, those were the days.
Suppose you could buy the Toshiba HD DVD player and pull the NEC drive out of it. There's also some unofficial HD DVD drives being sold at the moment, I guess Toshiba want all the drives so they can produce as many players as possible.
Not yet, but they will be available late spring/early summer, though there is not word yet as to what price one of these drives will fetch. Sony recently posted details on a pretty well stacked, new VAIO package with Blu-Ray on their site with a retail price of around $2,300.
If they can actually make their promises on the rewrittable (10,000 write cycles), then the price point for the 50GB rewrittable isn't really that bad. However, most computers won't be able to read them for awhile.
Are there even drives available yet?
Are there even drives available yet?
I spose the best comparison is the price of single layer dvd blanks compared to dual layer dvd blanks....
Especially the 200GB, 8 layer disc if it ever makes it out of the labs - bet that will require a further generation of drives to read/write.

As we break further away from April, we don't know who all of the good and bad teams are, but the truly elite teams have begun to separate themselves from the pack. Last season, only four managed to stay in the top 10 of the ESPN Power Rankings in each of the first seven weeks, and this season we find ourselves with the same scenario. Last season, the four teams at the top of the heap were the St. Louis Cardinals, Texas Rangers, Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees. This season, the Rangers are still among the cream of the crop, and they are joined by the Atlanta Braves, San Francisco Giants and Detroit Tigers. As we hurtle towards Memorial Day, however, we need to consider whether these four teams will remain elite throughout the season, and also if they will be or are joined by anyone else.

Wow. Feel like we've seen this live... https://t.co/qJJBRKVMFZ

If any school can do it, it's Michigan. PFF lists Jourdan Lewis as one of their alternate-universe-where-everyone-pays-close-attention-to-tape Heisman candidates:
Jourdan Lewis, CB, Michigan: +21.7
Key stat: Only three cornerbacks have been targeted more, and he has still only allowed 274 yards in his coverage.
Like Bosa, Lewis is hurt by playing on defense, particularly when he doesn't have any game breaking returns to catch your attention. That being said, you won't find a better cover corner in all of college football, and he is right up there with the other four players listed as one of the best players in the country. Lewis has been targeted 72 times in coverage, which seems foolish for opposing quarterbacks, especially when you consider he has given up just 26 receptions for 274 yards and one touchdown over the course of the year. He's allowed more than 40 receiving yards in a single game just once all year, and has come away with two interceptions and 14 pass breakups. There was a three-game span against UNLV, BYU and Maryland where he allowed just three receptions for six yards while picking off one pass and breaking up five more.
Those numbers are bonkers. Michigan's inability to generate turnovers has got to be mostly luck when they're getting so many hands on opposition passes. Those translate to INTs at a fairly consistent rate and Michigan is way below par there; meanwhile they've recovered one opposition fumble all year. I can't imagine what their numbers would be like if they had the same level of fortune that Hoke's first team did.
In other grading things. PFF did the Indiana game, giving Jake Rudock a monster +9.2. Certain defenders didn't do so hot:
Michigan's run defense was exposed for the first time this season, but it wasn't because they were overpowered on the line. No, the Wolverine's defense looked completely lost trying to maintain gap control against the Hoosier's stretch plays. Michigan's defensive line likes to fire off straight upfield at the snap. This works great against downhill runs like inside zone where they had great success Saturday. But versus outside zone firing upfield creates very wide running lanes when one defensive tackle flows down the line of scrimmage and another one doesn't. The poor discipline made the job extremely difficult on Michigan's linebackers. Matthew Godin (-5.3) and Joe Bolden (-3.6) were the two that struggled the most.
I'm through the first half-zillion Indiana plays and that is very much on point. Michigan is slanting with a backside blitz a ton and still not getting their guys to the correct gaps way way too often. Michigan quickly adapted to all the stretch plays tactically but the backup DTs were unable to execute, and Hurst suffered quite a bit as well.
Bolden… Bolden is not getting a good UFR number. I do not understand why Ben Gedeon isn't getting way more time.
New basketball rules impact. Kenpom with the 1000 foot view:
Scoring is up 7% over the first weekend last season. Pace is up 5% and efficiency is up 2%. It's not 1975-style basketball, but for at least one weekend we turned the clock back to 1995 when it wasn't unusual to see a team crack 100 on the daily scoreboard.
Fouls are up slightly, as are threes (with no decrease in shooting percentage). Twos are more accurate. The main caveat I would suggest is that years with rules changes that include "call the game like the rulebook says" often start out with a bunch more fouls and then refs swallow their whistles as the stakes rise. The last attempt to crack down on obstruction of movement petered out by midseason. Hopefully this one sticks, but I'm not getting out my victory epaulettes just yet.
FWIW, the NCAA put out a video about what the rules entail:
It's nice that the official voice of the NCAA is decrying MSU's brand of footsketball, at least. John Gasaway on the new regime:
One paradox or spiritual kinship shared by basketball and baseball alike is that invariably many of the sports' most consequential "reforms" consist of nothing more than a renewed commitment to enforcing the rules as already written. Screens really do have to be stationary, and bumping a cutter or displacing a player off the block really is a violation. So it is that in the coming days it will be said that it's precisely this newfound strict constructionist attitude that's resulted in all these darn fouls that are suddenly being called. Indeed the NCAA itself is already sounding this alarm. In its video the organization channels its inner Clubber Lang and says its prediction is pain: "At times the fans and media will not like the number of fouls being called, but we must stay the course and call the rules as written in the rule book."
I don't doubt for a moment that officials will signal their seriousness in November by minting free throws left and right, but it bears repeating that justice can be furthered by a no-call just as it can be by a whistle. Enlarging the charge circle could, one hopes, increase the prevalence of swallowed whistles, while the NCAA's professed wish to stop rewarding "offense-initiated contact" will be nothing less than a no-call godsend if it comes to pass. I don't want to see a foul called on Melo Trimble (just to pick a name purely at random), but a no-call the next time he flings himself like a horizontal missile into the chest of the nearest vertical-cylinder-inhabiting defender would most definitely be a just result.
One note from the Elon game: the refs appeared to blow one egregious example of offense-initiated contact when a Fightin' Christian jumped unnaturally into Walton to draw a foul.Otherwise I thought that game was well officiated aside from the usual slate of block/charge calls that nobody can ever figure out.
Is this how you do it? "Not quite." How about now? "Still not really there." Surely now? "For chrissakes can you stop looking like a serial killer experiencing afterglow for like 30 seconds?"
You're the one who wanted me to smile, Lynn.

Willie Taggart has had a nice turnaround year at USF. If he were to be let go at any point, Taggart would be very much on Harbaugh's radar to fill hypothetical holes on his staff, but better to see him succeed.
Charlie Strong to Miami rumors get their first credible support as Bruce Feldman says he's heard it is a possibility. Michigan is competing with Texas for a number of recruits including Jordan Elliott and Jean Delance.

So much of Michigan's offense this week was Indiana being atrocious at pass coverage, but the the one where Rudock threw Jehu open was…well it was that too but it was also a great play by a QB/WR tandem. Too often this year offense has come from schematic, or rock-paper-scissors wins. This one was just a great quarterback play. So let's draw it up:

I asked coach Harbaugh about the final play in double overtime, the stop-and-go route, and he said that that was something you guys hadn't repped [that week], wasn't in the gameplan and wasn't on the call sheet but was something coach Fisch saw from the box and added. How often does that kind of thing happen where the two coaches work something out that you don't expect to run but you've worked on in the past?
"I don't know. I'm not sure how often. It probably has been done but I don't think very often, and I think that the protection was something that we've always worked. It was just a slide, you know. Just something very basic, very simple. I think it was just one of those things like if you see it why not take what they're giving you. That's just good coaching."
We talked a little about it [this took place after the presser that ran this morning –A.] but Penn State has two great defensive tackles. What kind of challenge does that present to you when you've got a guy to the left who can do damage in the backfield and a guy to the right that can do the same?
"I mean, we've gone against them the past few years. Zettel's a great defensive tackle and the other guy's fantastic also. I literally always forget his name. I think it's Hamilton."
I think you're right.
"I was gonna say, I'm positive because I went against him last year."
I looked it up this morning and forgot, but I think you're right. [Turns out we were wrong. It's not Hamilton, it's Johnson. Graham mentioned Hamilton in the media scrum earlier, and after I finished my interview a reporter asked whether Graham was still around; they wanted to tell him he got his presidents mixed up*. –A.]
"He's also fantastic. He's a good nose, but if we focus on what we need to improve on and what we need to do with good pads and good hands I think we'll have a good day."
What's the key to that technique-wise? What's most important when you know you've got a guy who can rush the passer as a nose tackle?
"Just not falling asleep on him. You want to make sure you're always ready to go. A lot of times when you're playing a nose you don't expect him to really be able to rush the passer well so you'll have bad technique or you'll sort of just be lulled to sleep. He'll rush the passer badly a few times, just like velcro up to you and then one time he'll put a move on you, you know what I mean? You just have to make sure you're ready for everything, and that just comes from studying film and looking at what he likes to do and being ready for it."

Monday Presser 11-16-15: Players
Royce, how much did that pace on Saturday affect you guys, and is it just one of those things where maybe the pace got the better of you for one game?
"Yeah, the pace was pretty bad. We didn't play to our full ability and we definitely are looking forward to picking it up this week."
When you looked at it- have you had a chance to look at the film yet?
RJS: "Yes."
Beyond the pace, what were some of the issues you guys were having stopping the run?
RJS: "Just getting lined up. You know, everything was going so fast. Just getting lined up and getting the call since they were running a no-huddle offense the whole game. That was a big challenge. And just hitting a guy after so many plays, it takes a toll. Just had to find a way to get the W."
Graham, coach Harbaugh was talking about how Jake [Rudock] doesn't flinch and how he turns the page so well whether it's a great play or a poor play. Talk about the effect that has on a team.
"It's great to have a quarterback and have somebody who's the leader of our offense who comes into the play the exact same as he was the play before. He's not too high, he's not too low; he's unflappable. I think that gives us a quiet confidence about ourselves, and whether it was a bad play or a good play we're ready to keep going."
Graham, how's your brother holding up, and what words of advice did you give him after his injury? Tough break there.
"Ryan's doing fine. Playing a lot of Halo 5. We play a lot together. Maybe you'll see us online one day if any of you guys play. He's doing fine, and I just tell him that he had a great season and, you know, we're taking it week by week. Take it week by week, he had a great season, and he's going to come back next year stronger and better and ready to play again. You know, fight another day."
