It's been 22 years and no action scene has surpassed the bank robbery from HEAT :wow:

They had like a documentary on this, I rented it at the video store when I was a kid. shyt was pretty crazy

I was 20 in '97 so I remember this vividly. I still got the Rolling Stone magazine that covered this story. It was pretty crazy to read all the details of how this happened.

im talking before they got to airport

Do you mean how he knew he was at the airport? That's where Waingro was posted up. LAPD knew Waingro had a hotel room at the spot and put word on the street to bookies, snitches, etc. Neil knew Waingro was there but he was gonna let it slide. Then, after contemplating it some more he said nah I ain't letting this shyt slide so he went after him.

I seen this in theaters on some random shyt. I said this before but back in the day I'd be at the mall like 4-5 deep, and if we got bored we'd go see a random movie with no prior knowledge of it, didn't see a trailer, nothing. Sometimes we got burned by that but I also seen some classics.

exactly my story with sin city, never saw a trailer, never read the comics, just went to the cinema and :wow:

he only found him because the plot called for it
because he was already out the hotel he never went back to the car, he saw Pacino first and dipped. pacino never saw him

Not even close. The scene was amazing. I remember going into the movie not really knowing all that much about it. I just knew Deniro was in it so I had to go watch it (He was on fire in 95 with Casino and this one releasing within a month of each other). Me and my cousin went to go see it and this scene had everyone in the theater looking in shock afterwards. I remember leaving the theater feeling emotionally drained but hyped as hell b/c of that shootout scene. Something like this.

It just blows my mind that it was 1995 and there's still not a lot out there that's even coming close to it... :wow:
