    None of that sissy PETA stuff, either. Where do horses train to become stunt-capable horses?

    Someone owes me 4 minutes 58 seconds.

    And I spend most of my day reading the ignore thread.

    Animals were definitely harmed in the filming of this movie... along with a few stuntmen I suspect.

    In reply to Carson:

    That would be from his recharged Mullet.

    I wonder, is he was wearing some of these?

    Stuff this clip taught me about India:

    1. Apparently Indian foley artists have never actually heard a gunshot and just guess at what they sound like.

    2. An Indian can stop two galloping horses by intentionally racking himself on a light pole.

    3. In India they put panes of glass in what are clearly doorways, not windows.

    4. Parked cars in India explode for no reason.

    5. Indian Jeeps and Samurais have the ability to fly at will.

    Must be good to be in the glass business in India if that is any indication of how things are over there.....windshields, plate glass windows, bus glass ends (or whatever that semi trailer full of people with plate glass ends was supposed to be), TV's...nothing made of glass is safe.

    Will - calling those sound effect people Foley artists is a bit of a tretch...maybe Foley students, or Foley interns, or Foley wannabes.

    Anyone else feel bad for the Jeeps? The horses, not so much, but the jeeps...

    I'd have to watch it again to be sure, but it seemed like some of those glass panes grew back as soon as the first guy went through them, so the guys following him could break them a second time.

    edit: is the action hero lead in this movie the same guy who appears in that Bollywood version of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video? (if you haven't seen it, it's easy to find on Youtube.)

    I think many of those windows broke at least 4 times.

    I wanted to feel bad for the Jeeps, but I already feel bad for CJ3B's to begin with.
