The NC's reaction to the Frying the Coke scene was basically my reaction to Mad Max Fury Road.

fury road cant compare to this masterpiece of a climax. they had everything to try to do it but they could not do it in the end.

[@cjwrench07]

See it or Flick it. Now, if this movie had them fighting, while swinging from long stripper poles on top of small economy cars, while being driven down the small streets of Vienna, while Rodman followed on top of a Van playing a flaming Saxophone. That would have been a PERFECT. It could hav been at least 5X more of an epic build up to the colosseum final battle.

[@Questron71]

"Poor Baby, it's going through its whole life with a fear of fires and Belgians" So... this is a prequel for the Austin Powers Trilogy?? "Do you see anything missing from this film? Dennis freaking Rodman!" Don't jinx it before you've seen all of it... you will want to NO more see him soon enough.

[@lasarousi]

I "watched" this movie on cable, I was passing the channel and caught this on the scene of the island, thinking oh this must be an escapist movie with Jean Claude Van Damme! But it was dragging so much I went through the channels again, it was back on the coliseum scene, with totally different people on a different setting and with half naked males fighting with a tiger and didn't knew there were mines until the epic end. I truly thought they were different films.

[@Questron71]

Who cares... what happened to the poor Tiger? And I guess the coke machine lived.... must be from the same company that made the nuke-safe Indy 4 fridge...

[@wjzav1971]

Urs F Oh, well the Tiger was launched into space, where it slipped through a dimension hole. There an alien race gave him human-level intelligence. After some decades, in the year 2050, it fell back on earth, where religion was abolished, robots are politicians (as it was discovered that they were clearly more efficient than human politicians) and zombies form the proletarian workforce. Because of his intelligence and his psychic powers, the tiger is made a police detective in New Chicago and solves crimes with his partner, a half-zombie half-robot with a crab hand who is afraid to swim, called Adam. The personal goal of Detective Tiger is it, to find and devour Jean Claude Van Damme, the leader of the old mutants, as this was his last assignment while still being a tiger in that Colosseum, thus coming to peace with his old savage nature. So, thats what happened to the tiger. Are you satisfied now?

[@Casey5693]

WJZAV No, why would religion be abolished? That's just ridiculous.

[@wjzav1971]

Extremist Atheists took over and forbade all form of religion and worship to a higher power. They imposed the Atheist Inquisition, which job it was to find believers using torture and espionage, burning anyone who was even suspected to be a believer at the stake. People would often denounce their neighbors as believers to the Atheist Inquisition. Every religious worship place, like temples or shrines was burned down. In their place round Atheist monuments were erected, where all the people had to come to every Sunday to swear never to believe and they listened to a scientist, who indoctrinated them with the final truth, that there is no higher power. Of course, anyone who dared to question the scientist and imply that there might be something and that nobody could really know, would be immediately impaled before a cheering crowd of non-believers. All this lead to the Atheist Wars, as other Atheist fractions thought, the monuments should not be round but rectangular, as this is clearly more logical. Then there was another fraction which thought the monuments should be triangular and the scientist should wear a blue instead of a white coat, to symbolize the universe. Then there was another splinter group, which thought believers should be melted in acid instead of being impaled or burned as this is way cleaner and in the scientific spirit. Then there was another......You get the idea. All this fractions accused each other of performing Atheism wrong and therefore needed to be wiped from the face of the earth. Detective Tiger didn't give a shit about all this. He was just following the law. But there was a big shocker, when he found out that his partner Adam was secretly a believer, which put Tiger into turmoil as he didn't know if he should follow the law and arrest his friend or let him slip. Anyway, that's why religion was abolished. Any questions?

Random piece of info: Both Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dennis Rodman are bi-polar. So am I. I'd be willing consider the possibility that they either got along fine because of that common ground or things occasionally got really heated and ugly. If it was the latter than I'd much rather watch that behind the scenes drama than any movie they'd star in.

[@charlottecorday8494]

I always just kind of assumed that either the director or writer was just a really big fan of The Prisoner - or maybe Van Damme just really liked Patrick McGoohan.
