Talk:Hard Target

Comment
I have to say the Hard Target is one of the funniest films I have ever seem. Of course John Woo can't have intended his film to be viewed in this way, but it really is difficult not to laugh at it. Van Damme suits the role really well however, and catching a snake before punching it must take a lot of skill. "I'm leaving a little surprise for my firends."


 * Try watching this film in New Orleans. This is probably the funniest of the numerous geographically inaccurate films set in the city of New Orleans.  We don't talk like cajuns and downtown New Orleans isn't anywhere near the swamp.  That's what Lafeyette is like.  And by the way, punching a plastic snake is pretty easy.  We catch flying plastic snakes all the time at Mardi Gras.  It's a lot easier than catching a coconut.  WH.

Who wrote this I say? Is this supposed to be here? You guys said that the Trivia is discouraged. And to remove inappropiate content there. I'm thinking about changing the part about Lance Henrikson being set on fire, and deleting that part about the soundtrack, because I think it's not necessary. What do you guys think? --Pix88 (talk) 21:01, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Trivia Section
Sorry you guys, I already commented on this, but I figured it wasn't the proper way to do it so I put in a new section. (I'm new here!)

You guys want the whole trivia section removed? --Pix88 (talk) 21:23, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Just removed Trivia... now it's cleaner! --Pix88 (talk) 16:20, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Van Cleef
Arnold Vosloo's character has the name Van Cleaf. I changed all the spellings to reflect this except of course for the reference to Lee Van Cleef who is represented in the article as being - how would we say? - un hommage.

I watched this film last night and was struck by the Cleaf spelling of the name in the credits. However, I visited Hard Target on IMDB and discovered that the spelling of the character's name is Cleef.

I will rerun the film in DVD format again to check the spelling and revert if necessary.

If anyone already knows better please revert the spellings now. I may be some time.

 * Allmovie and the New York Times review say "Van Cleaf" so I'm going to assume that's correct. I don't have the dvd so best you check. If it turns out to be Van Cleaf, this is good proof that imdb isn't always correct. Andrzejbanas (talk) 02:05, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Genres additions
Could we get a good source for those extra genre additions? Andrzejbanas (talk) 21:53, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
