I guess it would be inappropriate to strap on a big fixed blade the 25th

I got half a mind to tie on a red bandanna, strap on my biggest fixed blade, put on a dirty wife beater, some torn jeans, and some old combat boots.
 
I may only carry a folder in my pocket, but as I watch Rambo next week, I'll be pretending it's giant Rambo patented head-lopper-offer :D

I told my Girlfriend that was what I was gonna do, and she started laughing and made some comments about my mental capacity......I thought it would be funny, all the Starwars guys and Startrek people do it, why can't the knife nuts?
 
I can hardly wait to see it. Blade magizine had a write up and so did soldier of fortune
magizine. SLY was on lettermen last night they showed a little of the movie. It makes me wish it was this Friday.

Have been to the theaters when a harry potter movie comes out?
That's a good time to go dressed as Rambo.

"Covey leader calling raven, come in, over!"

"They're all dead, sir."
 
Haha, I was actually just telling my sister I'd be strapping on the kabar heavy bowie to go see that next week. She did not look pleased. But then I told her I'd make her a look-alike of the new blade and she was pleased again. :D
 
I must be getting old, but wearing a bowie knife into a theatre seems like a pretty stupid idea.
 
I want a new Rambo knife. On one trailer it looks like he whacks a bad guys head off-Yikes! Rambo is my hero.
 
If it weren't for the accursed legality issues I would. Unfortunately, in this day and age a theater probably counts as a 'public gathering'. Otherwise, I'd be wearing faded fatigues, combat boots, T-shirt, bandanna and RD7, trust me. Just for the looks I'd get. Despite it probably not being the best idea in the world, as Lorien suggested, it sure would be fun.

But I guess I'll wait on my dressing up for May 22, for the new Indy movie. Then it'll be full Indy attire for me. Bomber jacket, fedora, boots and gas mask bag (and two or three knives in my pockets). :D
 
My dad used to watch the Dirty Harry movies at home while playing around (safely) with his 8 3/8" bbl Smith 29. It was funny. I've found myself doing the same thing. Of course this is at home. :-)

Yeah, I can't wait to see how Indy straps his 1917 - and Rambo his short sword - to their respective walkers. Right there next to the Geritol - ahead of the sack of prunes. I have to admit, seeing Raquel Welch and Sofia Loren at sixty was still pleasing to the eye. These guys as senior-citizen 'action hero's' may not be so good. Still, from hearing Sly talk about the problems in Myanmar (Burma) on a radio interview with Glenn Beck - and his description of this being his goriest movie - did get my interest. As I'll hit six-o this summer, I'll probably see both movies... if I can get MY walker in there!

If I go, I'll wear my favorite Stallone quote t-shirt.

"until America, door to door, takes every handgun, this is what you're gonna have... It really is pathetic... We're livin' in the Dark Ages over there."
Sylvester Stallone, March 28, 1998

Nah, on second thought, I think I'll stay home. :rolleyes: :)
 
With all the big blades and pent up testosterone packing the theater, for safety's sake I will just rent the movie and watch it from at home. Who knows what the nut behind me is thinking about when my head and neck is blocking their view of Sylvester.:eek:
 
I am sure this post will make me even more popular around here...but anyway.

I would look at someone going to the rambo premier in full regalia, including knife, just like I look at people going to Star Treck conventions in full star fleet uniform with plastic Spock ears. :rolleyes:

It is truly amazing the power that hollyweird has on everday people, the most common woods knife pre 1982 was a slipjoint or a small fixed blade with wood or stag scales. Post 1982 we all know what people prefer, super, duper, blacktical head loppers. Is this because that the latter knives are more useful, or because of the muscular, testerone packed mental image of ole sly battling the wilderness and bad guys with nothing but a huge, scary knife, whether or not that image is based in any fact at all. I like to think I choose my woods tools on that basis of what works best, not what some steriod infused, two faced, ex porn star carries in a live action cartoon. Chris
