Say Hello To My Lil’ Friend!

    Chances are if you are a very wealthy person you are going to own your own helicopter, or go for rides in them a lot. Even if you just work for a really big business you are probably going to fly in a helicopter. They just make it so easy to get around. (And show off) So in movies they really use that fact a lot, showing off a lot of helicopters.

In the movie Scarface the drug lord bad guy does not like Tony’s (Scarface’s) partner. The bad guy’s goons take Tony’s (Scarface’s) partner, him thinking they were just going home. But instead you can see them hanging is partner from a helicopter. Now the bad guys could have easily killed him in a much simpler way that would have cost less money and be much faster. But when you have that much power and money when you kill someone to make a point, you can go bigger or go home like that. You can see just how big of a statement it would be to see someone hung from a helicopter just to scare you.

In the movie 28 Weeks Later they also use an over the top use of a helicopter is a dramatic way. The pilot of the helicopter is very angry at some zombie, that is easy to see. But what is really surprising is that he uses his helicopter as an oversize weedwacker. Seeing and being close to the zombies, he flies the helicopter low to the ground and slanted so the blade is low enough to shred right through all of the zombies. Now if this is not a over climatic way to use a helicopter in a movie, then I do not know what is. That would be to cool if it was possible and practical in real life to do. But you can only dream of flying a helicopter like that.

In the movie Jurassic World one of the main bosses guy shows up to the park flying a helicopter. He lands it a little shaky and you can tell that he is knew to it. (Trust me it is hard to land a helicopter I have tried) In this latest instalment of Jurassic Park, the park is open at its original island. So one of the best ways of getting there is of course helicopter. (Some use a boat but that is so slow. And we know what happened last time they used a small plane.) As predicted the dinosaurs get out. But this time they have new mutated dinosaurs. The boss guy goes flying in the helicopter to go and try to save somebody but a flying dinosaur crashes into the windshield making it crash. The helicopter crashes right into another cage full of a different kind of flying dinosaur.(This one with a head that looks like a T-Rex) And they all get out. He is not a very good pilot huh?
