MikeRMontagne 0 #4 June 3, 2010 Thanks for reminding me of "Swoop", what is is real name and is he still skydiving &as'nt he in Hill Street Blues for a while? The whole cast appeared to be very much into the sport and it's still an O.K. movie, save for the B.S. deliberate "Gift wrapping".Be Brave, embrace the fear, even if your not, pretend to be.

Amazon 7 #6 June 3, 2010 Quote Open question, dose Yancy Butler still skydive and where? From WIKI Quote The insurance policies of Wesley Snipes and most of the cast precluded them from skydiving. However, that really is Michael Jeter doing the tandem jump. Don't ya love movie magic???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeRMontagne 0 #9 June 3, 2010 So maybe we're over due for a Skydiving movie, now just to pick the cast ,Keanu, as a wisen, somewhat occasioanal jumping. But mostly just hanging at the D.Z. trying to inspire newbies, reminising of past day's of glory.Could even have Yancy as his lady partner who's been by his side through all their experiences. I'll leave the rest of the "Plot" and character's for those who might like to possibly build a 2010 sky diving movie fit for skydivers.Oh yah, I'd be available, in my earlier day's I was a helicopter maintenance engineer ( Bell's),up in Canada's Artic.

MikeRMontagne 0 #14 June 3, 2010 The shot with the camera circling those actresses just put's this film into the "R' rating, title it "Airgasm" Now to fit in some,tracking, hybrid, wing suiting,some kind of plot, skydivers foiling a terrosit W.O.M.D threat?Throw in some ex-special forces types relegated to tandem jumping, freaked out barfing torrists. Also an aircraft mechanic, having always wanted to jump, but just can't quite get it right?Be Brave, embrace the fear, even if your not, pretend to be.

grimmie 186 #15 June 4, 2010 The "Passion Eight" story would only need them creeping and dirt diving. No plot needed.Ask an oldtimer who or what "Passion Eight" was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
