Billy Jack Fight Scene

[@frankkrakie2540]

Billy Jack was my all time favorite movie growing up. It’s difficult to express what an important movie this was to many of us in that generation. He gave hope to many of us who came from abusive families and horrible neighborhoods, etc. I myself was a survivor of severe childhood trauma. He taught us to believe in the spirit world, respect and defend ourselves and others who cannot defend themselves. He taught us through his role and movies to believe in the spirit world and there is so much more to life and eternity than what we see with our eyes. Enjoy the spirit world by brother! Hope to see you on the other side one day! This movie and character gave hope to so many people.

[@l.garcia3525]

Amen to that Brother 😉

[@kennethwhite4923]

I told my little brother I was going to take my right foot and whop him on the left side of his face and I pulled my groin and never tried to execute the move. RIP Tom Laughlin he was one of my all time favorites!!!

[@joesephtoulouse5360]

As teens,we all loved billy jack rest in peace tom,you was our hero great movies,great messages.

[@dawnwokson8202]

As a child growing up in an abusive home and then the abuse at school,Billy Jack gave me hope and helped me learn what real honor was. I was in love with him and wanted someone like him in my life. Thankful that there were good wholesome shows and movies back then that showed me how to be a good person, because I rarely saw it in real life. Thanks for sharing

[@stevejette2329]

Love your post. Best Wishes.

I'm a survivor too grew up in a abusive home my mom and her husband hurt me from the age of 5yrs old to 18yr!

[@dawnwokson8202]

@@memeaw76I'm glad you survived too. We always need to focus on being a survivor and not a victim,then we need to find our peace.Im finding mine living in an old airstream offgrid on the high plains of Arizona with my animals, it's very freeing. I hope you have found yours 😃

[@robertvillarreal7055]

@aspenrebel Past 60 & this kid inside me won’t leave me alone! Lol.

[@johndaker9489]

I'm 61. I saw this film in the theater in Los Angeles when I was around 9, it changed my life. It shaped who I became. I modeled my personality after Billy Jack. I wanted a horse, a motorcycle and a jeep. I wore cowboy boots to school, only to take them off and act like I was going to wop ass on people. I wore a black t shire and levi jacket all the time. I really was delusional. If you made a film about me it would be called; 'The Boy Who Never Grew Up'. I still cry when I watch this film. Its still one of the best films ever made. God bless Tom and Deloris for creating this timeless masterpiece. RIP, you gave the world a piece of art that will never diminish.

[@albertchavez2693]

Amen love your story :) mine is simular but i did take Kenpo and was in a Boxing club , after i got pretty good the Bullies were afraid of me , thankfully i only had to wop a few footballers and i was only 5'7" but in wieght lifting and gymnastics . What a great time to be alive class of 1978 Yuma Az. Long live Good humans to help the weaker older and woman ? children , to this day i will give my life to save the innocent !

One of my favorite movies of all time if not the favorite. I sat from the first show til the last show 2 wkends in a row at the age of 10 and pretty much know the whole dialogue and the words to every song. What a magical time those days were

At 12 years old, in 1971, there was a Billy Jack Film Festival, on weekends at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood. It's easy to remember that taste of popcorn or Milk Duds, when I watch this 🤔

I watched Billy Jack a lot when I was younger great movie

[@usedscar]

All the comments are so positive. The home movie style of these films and the intimacy that it portrays takes me back to that time so perfectly. I lived in El Paso and the scenes in this are so close to what people looked like and talked about that it's very real.

Everytime I go to Prescott. I go in the ice cream shop and I go stand where he did on the east side of the courthouse. One of the best scenes ever

[@fleeble04]

I lived in Prescott Arizona when they were filming this movie, attended school there, got to see some of the filming, a lot of work was done on this one fight scene to get it just right and most of it done by the martial arts instructor who was training Tom Laughlin at the time. Still it was fun to watch being shot and then again the film cut version in the theater a year later.

[@johnstickles6789]

When I was a kid, The first installment of this series, The Born Loser, was my first ever drive-in movie with my parents. Great movie back then and I still like watching it. Favorite scene: “and there’s not a dam thing you can do about it” was first in The Born Loser, at the gas station scene.

I saw this movie in the movie theater when I was a preteen. It spired me in every way Tom ment for it to inspire. I also studied several Martial Arts as well as being an undefeated wrestler from Pennsylvania. I dabbled in MMA. My dad flew A-4 Skyhawks for the United States Navy with John McCain and objected to it and I decided that I didn't like hurting others.

[@carloflorez8697]

Always looked forward to Billy Jack on T. V. Back when we only had 13 channels. Made sure I did my Homework and other Chores so I could see this movie. I saw a previous comment about this movie being Too Idealistic. Well guess what, ITS A MOVIE! Don't see the problem with presenting a film about a bad ass protecting People. It made alot of money. And was enjoyed by many. Clint Eastwood always was a badass who stood up to bullies. But he used a gun. I think the message in Billy Jack is Somehow Justice will prevail. One of the many great movies Ive seen in my 50+ years. I know so many people that see movies and get too caught up in whether its too over the Top. Its always just a movie. Though Ive known people that fought off 3-5 People. No karate. Just heart and Speed. Along with a bit of fighting experience. Voicing my opinion.
