Everything about Blue Thunder is bad ass even by today's standards. The helicopter is bad ass, Roy Schieder is bad ass and icy cool as the hero of the story, the action is bad ass, the music is bad ass, the one liners are bad ass lol kablewy... "Catch ya later" 😂. Classic movie.

This movie is one of the best action films I’ve seen. It’s so different from the norm, and really makes the helicopter as much of a star as the rest of the cast. It also has the best helicopter dogfights I’ve ever seen in film.

I saw this film way back in 1983, when my family and I were on vacation in the Philippines. I thought this was a great action film. Roy Scheider was an amazing and awesome actor. Gone but not forgotten. Godspeed and RIP.

"Christ, I had twenty years in this outfit when your idea of a good time was sitting at home in front of the tv tube watching Bugs Bunny and gnawing on your fudgesicle. " The late Warren Oates as Captain Braddock made this movie. He had the best lines. With respect to Roy Scheider

I remember watching this cool movie for the first time only a few years ago back in 2010/2011 ish. I was born in 1986 and I kinda feel like I'm playing catch up as I prefer a lot of 80's era movies compared to movies of today. Their are still many more I intend to watch. Blue Thunder has a lot of things I like in a 80's era movie- an interesting story line, police chases, helicopter shoot outs and the late actor Roy Scheider who is also well known for his role as Chief Brody in Jaws.

“The $5 million prototype was totally destroyed when Officer Frank Murphy, his gasoline supply exhausted, set the helicopter down on the tracks in front of a freight train. That was the end of the helicopter, but not of this story. On the strength of the tape that Murphy delivered to this reporter, the mayor’s reopened investigation of Councilwoman Diana McNeely’s death, which also might be connected to the death of Officer Richard Lymangood. Half a dozen local police officers and several officials of the State and Justice Departments have been detained for questioning. Coming up, weather, and a preview of the bullet train soon to be seen in the Southland, maybe.”

I remeber this theme song but not from the movie. It was a different movie. It was in a top gun history of the navys fighters or something like that. They talked about different planes, the f-14 tomcat my favorite plane, tom cruise actually flying one but this used this theme towards the end when they were showing different planes being taken down by our planes with actual explosions and missles hitting. It was so cool. But i remeber hearing this theme and i loved it. I was 8 at the time 😊

i love both Blue Thunder and Airwolf just as much, and the theme for Airwolf is said by many to be better, but I feel that each theme fits their own respective property. Sylvester Levay's score is amazing, but it wouldn't fit with such a dark film as this; and Blue Thunder's score would not go well with Airwolf.

I always wondered at the ending when Murphy destroyed Blue Thunder, was he also faking his death to avoid prosecution and/or retaliation?
@toob19794 жыл бұрын
No. If you listen to the reporter's voiceover at the end, he said Murphy set BT down on the railroad track after running out of fuel. He then said a bit about the investigation Murphy touched off. He said nothing about Murphy dying or disappearing.
@anthonythorne87084 жыл бұрын
The plane wasn’t going to fly off again by itself. Why destroy it? The only reason is to fake his own death - regardless of what the reporter does or doesn’t say - and head off into the night, a fitting departure for such a cool character.

I think you're right, mate! I just happened to have my keyboard plugged in playing over the top and the other versions posted on YT sit on the key of E. This version is coming in closer to F but falls flat of that, sitting between the two notes. The track is pitched up as a consequence and runs quicker. Not ideal! I remember back in the day when I was learning to play (self taught) I used to play John Carpenter tracks, etc, and this one! This was a nightmare because it's all over the place! I can play it now but blimey, what a track to cover when you're starting out by ear - not ideal!! I should dig my vinyl version out one day and confirm it should be in E!
