[quote name="Jerry Whorebach"][quote name="<a href="http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/tacticalshooting/bibliography.html">GURPS Tactical Shooting</a>"]Way of the Gun, The (Christopher McQuarrie, 2000). Criminals "Mr. Parker" and "Mr. Longbaugh" use the Assaulter style with Modern Pistol elements. Both demonstrate Combat Reflexes, Battle Drills, and One-Hand Drills (Pistol); Longbaugh also has Danger Sense. Using a Colt .45 Government in Condition One and a semiautomatic IMI Galil ARM rifle (High-Tech, p. 117), Longbaugh shows Fast-Draw (Ammo and Pistol), Close-Quarters Battle (Pistol and Rifle), Fast-Firing (Pistol and Rifle), Off-Hand Weapon Training (Pistol), and the wall-penetrating abilities of the 7.62×51mm NATO round. Parker employs a Remington Model 870P and shell bag and does an impressive transition to his Colt .45. They demonstrate the Modified Weaver stance, tactical reloads, two-man room-clearing tactics, and even how sniper and spotter interact. By contrast, the bodyguards show the Isosceles stance with 9×19mm H&K USP pistols. The bagmen favor Point-Shooting with revolvers.[/quote] McQuarrie also wrote <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0985699/"><i>Valkyrie</i></a>, which is basically porn for people who like seeing Nazi officers relieved of their command. Just try not to read any reviews first, because the critics were not above spoiling how it ends. And for even more mindless bloodshed, check out <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0483607/"><i>Doomsday</i></a>, director Neil Marshall's excuse to recreate all his favourite scenes from <i>Aliens</i>, <i>Escape from New York</i>, <i>The Road Warrior</i>, <i>Dawn of the Dead</i>, <i>Excalibur</i>, <i>The Warriors</i>, and more! Possibly the most underrated action movie of the last five years, and proof that the greatest asset a post-apocalyptic society can have is Malcolm McDowell.[/quote]
