Ripley's gearing up scene can't be any more beautiful. You can literally feel her fear, her lack of actual combat experience. But at the same time the absolute determination, the creativity when facing an unnatural situation, the adrenaline pumping in her body. James Cameron was a total beast back in the 80s and 90s.
Agreement. This was my favorite. It was the only one that had a time hack. Rambo's gear would have been already ready. The countdown there was cheesy. There was no rush that I remember.
Interesting thing about the Ripley scene. For years this scene was a blooper, but they fixed it for either the Blu-Ray or the Director's Cut (I forget which.) Originally she took a flamethrower off the rack, and laid down a pulse rifle. Then she took a pulse rifle off the rack and laid down the flamethrower. It's correct here.
I would legit pay hella money to see an entire movie of jacked sweaty badass 80's action dudes just strapping up and locking and loading all the guns with the sweet 80's whammy guitar riffs and constant gun cocking sounds! HELL YEAH BROTHER!
@@JayTidethe Rambo gear up scene is awesome, but when you think of a gearing up scene, most people imagine Arnie on a beach, locking and loading everything he has.
@@lordaldo3273 And it was done right. She had to do this to survive. She had to do this to quell the nightmares. She saw the threat they were and couldn't let humanity suffer like her crew did. It was either step up or die like the rest. Hence why she was so willing to end herself when the queen was bursting her chest in 3. This is how you make a bad ass character, and Ellen Ripley is legendary.
Awesome. I actually loved Ripley's scene - even back then, I thought the idea of duct taping the rifle and flame thrower together was a rad idea. Truly a great character. Sly and Arnold are always amazing.
Even moreso, in the book someone looks at her creation and states it violates at least 50 safety regulations. Ain't redneck unless it's dangerous to the wielder too.
The whole scene is just awesome, you can feel the pressure almost if it was real, such an amazing performance and great work with the make up, the sweat, the atmosphere, everything together make that part of the movie perfect.
She is frightened yet determined, Ripley is still the strongest female character and none had come close to her even after 40 years. Holywood today just misses the point by giving manlike-masculine traits to female characters to make them look strong but instead they look ridiculous.
I love that deep breath that Ripley takes right before the elevator opens. It’s such a little thing that just communicates so much. It’s like “WTF am I doing here? Please don’t cry, try not to panic. Deep breath, THIS IS HAPPENING, and WE are doing it. Ok. Time to get to fucking work.”
Sounds so satisfying when everyone gears up. I'm sure we all can relate to these scenes in how way or some form. These scenes reminds me a lot of my Resident Evil video game days. When playing RE1, RE2, RE3 and RE4 fighting the bosses, I geared up like crazy especially on hard mode where it only takes 2 hits to bring your health down to red. Stock up on my 1st spray, carry all my handgun bullets, carry 7 rounds of my magnum, bring a few explosive grenades, and bring one big weapon to the fights. End up using them all too because i love the difficult and challenge of the bosses.
Arnold in Raw Deal (@2:16) taking the time to load and put one in the chamber for all his firearms but then not topping the mags off has always bothered me.
Commando is one of the greatest movies ever made. I also love how even the slightest touch of a gun in these scenes makes a huge click sound. Even them just picking it up.
If he HAD the gear, he likely would have just taken the pictures, got picked up by chopper, got his pardon, and returned to Arizona....and all those dudes would have died in the camps.
I served in the army in the 90s. Infantry. Based off the back of these 80s films we all used to make a real show of getting kitted up. It was always good for a laugh.

Seriously my favorite part about 80s films why did they stop doing this....always gets you pumped up for the action!
First Avengers did that.
They're still doing it today.
This kind of thing is now reserved for superhero stuff.
@@thomasthorburn2751Superhero movies are still action movies.
For me, as a kid, it was the frontal nudity and the occasional {redacted} scene with montage music. But I can see the appeal of this as well. ;-)
So glad you put Sigourney along with Arnold and Stallone !
Her character is sooo much better than the far fetched female action stars of today.
she held her own
@@tappcs Like who?
Even a few hundred years into the future duct tape still holds everything together
Duct tape is low-key one of the most useful inventions in human history
Also coffee , the only thing good in the nostromo ship
It's like the Force, it has a light side and a dark side, and it binds the Universe together.
If Ripley had taken a spare magazine for the M61 pulse rifle then we’ve wouldn’t have had any further Alien sequels…
Flex Tape is the future tho
Schwarzenegger & Stallone… Ultimate bad asses… 😎💪

Dont you mean killing Maschines

Thank you for your service.

All of that but fear. Her stress..for sure..but the bitch ellen ripley feared nothing.

If there's one thing Evil Dead pulls off with their gear up, it's a perfect one-liner. *Groovy*
COMMANDO.....ALIENS....RAW DEAL....RAMBO 2.....EVIL DEAD 2.....OOOOOOH YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!
80s were a truly magical time.
Thanks was wondering what the second arnie film was 🫡
@@peterbaxter463 《 Raw Deal 》1986
Dude lay off of the 1980's cocaine already!
0:11 when Arnold's double grenades clinking against each other, you know it's badass
It's like the masculine version of jiggling boobies.
I would legit pay hella money to see an entire movie of jacked sweaty badass 80's action dudes just strapping up and locking and loading all the guns with the sweet 80's whammy guitar riffs and constant gun cocking sounds! HELL YEAH BROTHER!
And arm wrestling with oiled up arms ;)
The 80s had the best gearing up scenes
My personal favorite comes from the original Dawn of the Dead when they reach the gun shop. Classic.
It's a great scene. Have a look at the oh guns guns guns video on the channel, it's included in that.
Aint it a crime
Loved them all, but the Commando one with Big Arnie is still probably the most iconic of them all!
The Rambo one definitely has an argument.
@@JayTidethe Rambo gear up scene is awesome, but when you think of a gearing up scene, most people imagine Arnie on a beach, locking and loading everything he has.
Ripley was just a warrant officer on a space tugboat but the aliens turned her into a wrathful war-goddess.
It's an awesome arc, genuinely
Same with Ash. He was just a housewares worker for a market, but the book of the dead turned him into a chainsaw handed demon killer.
+palmerip. Sigourney Weaver was truly “badass”.
It's a good thing Hicks taught her how to use all that stuff.

All that badassery with the perfect finish, "Groovy!"
Awesome. I actually loved Ripley's scene - even back then, I thought the idea of duct taping the rifle and flame thrower together was a rad idea. Truly a great character. Sly and Arnold are always amazing.
The first 25 seconds is how I get ready to roll to Costco.
Stumbled on this gem. Thank you. "I want my two dollars!"
I always loved how Ripley just, like, duct taped a couple of guns together to make one super gun. Space Redneck ingenuity, right there.
Even moreso, in the book someone looks at her creation and states it violates at least 50 safety regulations. Ain't redneck unless it's dangerous to the wielder too.
"Anything Left For Us?" "Just Bodies!" best line ever
2:06 Man i love the way she close her eyes take a deep breath, to regain focus,
No. She was STEELING herself, driving the mind-burning fear down.
Agreed. Total badass
The whole scene is just awesome, you can feel the pressure almost if it was real, such an amazing performance and great work with the make up, the sweat, the atmosphere, everything together make that part of the movie perfect.
Even loading film into a camera is enough to get me nodding in appreciation, with a “yeah”.
No....an Macho Man "Ooohhh Yyeeaahh"
Me every night before school day
True lol
Pencil crayons secured in metal tin.
Ruler slotted in binder.
Etc.
Etc.
😎😎😎
LMAO
Don't you mean morning routine in America?
U live in Chicago I assume
Arnold is the king of gearing up
Disagree when you put up the scenes from Commando and Rambo side by side, Commando seems like satire and Rambo like a documentary
Rambo nearly stabs himself 🤕
The Ash sequence is made all the better for him making the chainsaw hand.
Groovy
All great action movies, thriller movies, monster movies, and supernatural horror films need scenes like this.
Did not expect Evil Dead, but as soon as I saw the first parts, i was elated
4:59 that camera load is the best thing ever
Ripleys one of the greatest heroes
Ripley gearing up just hits different, knowing what she’s going to fight and who she’s fighting to save.
She is frightened yet determined, Ripley is still the strongest female character and none had come close to her even after 40 years. Holywood today just misses the point by giving manlike-masculine traits to female characters to make them look strong but instead they look ridiculous.

The gearing up scenes here always get me excited for before they go into the action
That Ripley scene is a 10/10.
I forget Sigourney was one of the OG Female Bad asses . Her and Sarah Connor
Linda Hamilton!Sarah Connor ???
Yes! Where's Sarah?
Evil Dead 2 - Glad you added that scene

There's just something about those foley sounds that has a distinct charm to them.
Running theme, all 80’s films. Best decade for film! 🙌
This is what ive been looking for
Wow look at all those guns! I wanna own them all!
There's only one winner here: Commando
YES!
aliens gear up actually made sense for the story, the rest are just cool lol.
Probably the only time in history that the gearing up to an action sequence is done to the music of steel drums.
Ripley has the biggest balls i have ever seen, even Chuck Norris wont be happy facing Lt.Ripley.
Ripley using a Loading Dock Exoskeleton to fight the Xenomorph Queen was ultra badass.
Me, before going to gym for boxing class.
Wow Myer! Great Gearing up scenes for sure! I love this!
I grew up watching Commando. My parents recorded it onto a VHS tape.
Ahh the Rambo knife! I can remember when I got my first knock off of that. Best summer ever!!
Arnold in Raw Deal (@2:16) taking the time to load and put one in the chamber for all his firearms but then not topping the mags off has always bothered me.
That 3rd scene is from Raw Deal. Lot of people don't like that movie, but it's fucking boss.
It makes Arnold look like Freddie Mercury without a mustache.
Commando is one of the greatest movies ever made. I also love how even the slightest touch of a gun in these scenes makes a huge click sound. Even them just picking it up.
Clicks on lock lol😂,
When he took the bag out of the boat. Like he put 200 lbs down 😂
@2:24 is what I feel like when I'm getting ready to go to the range 🤣
Couldn’t help but notice after loading tube feed weapons they didn’t reload after putting one in the chamber. I also noticed they didn’t select safe
Arnold Owns this category.
The Calypso music 😂
My favorite gearing up scene is absolutely the one in the Matrix.
Great vid! The Gen X memory lane!
Ripley's gearing up scene is the best..... but right behind it is Ash (from Evil Dead 2) and the first Arnie on from Commando.
0:12 it’s the fact that a Deagle looks like a reasonable sidearm when it’s strapped to Arnold.
And normal sized.............he actually fired a few rounds from it when the rocket launcher was emptied LoL
Commando featured THE 1st appearance of a Desert Eagle as a sidearm. Plus James Horner’s score was great.
Rambo's cracked me up, cause he never got to use most of his gear.
If he HAD the gear, he likely would have just taken the pictures, got picked up by chopper, got his pardon, and returned to Arizona....and all those dudes would have died in the camps.
In Both Raw Deal & Rambo 2 - 39 years old for both.. But i am planning to build from my 20 years old 😢😢😢
LOL Love this: Serious, serious, serious....ASH WILLIAMS hahahahahaha that was a great finish
I served in the army in the 90s. Infantry. Based off the back of these 80s films we all used to make a real show of getting kitted up. It was always good for a laugh.
name of gun shown at 3:02 is International Ordnance MP2 machine pistol, So cool.
For some reason the clip of Stallone loading some 35mm film into his camera in amongst all the blades and guns makes me chuckle.
Need to add the Wild Bunch...Pekinpah!!
Every time I see the Ripley gear up, all I can think of is: "ONLY 1 CLIP?!?"🤦♂️
My gooood thats how i feel putting on ski gear
Ripley gearing up to fight aliens was more realistic than all of the Governors Films!
The boots, the guns, the blades
Perfect preparation
Bravoos song och Mattias och avmattias Dahlberg.
God bless your soul for this.
I remember in kindergarten back in 1986 I was Grunt from G.I. Joe for Halloween at school and my mom painted my face like Arnold in Commando.
Great 80S GEARING UP SCHENES
All that gearing and Rambo doesn’t even get to use most of that shit.
First 22 seconds is perfect. Perfect for all time
no matter how high tech it is ...duct tape will save ya
Ending it with one of the best lines ever uttered in the history of the world was a good decision.
Powerful papa wolf Matrix and sweet mama bear Ripley, a perfect start!
That's me before going to the boxing gym. Seriously, that's in my mind when I gear up to train. It somehow pumps me up.
I'm feeling a bit lazy today I need this. Thanks YT.
Computer: You need 3 minutes
Ripley: I only need 2
I love the evil dead 2 gear up scene the most so iconic
This is me every morning just to get a cup of coffee.
I hope the editor of Commando got a raise, it is impossible to not get hype with the rhythm of the edition
Escape From NY had a cool scene with all of Snakes gear laid out.
Groovy.
The musical flair on Ripley coking the grenade launcher is peak.
Those are some prime cuts! 😁
That Elen Ripley scene from Aliens allways gives me goosebumps.
That Rambo Gearing up is so iconic
Rambo makes even loading film into a camera look awesome.
Commando, Aliens, Raw deal,Rambo 2, & Evil dead 2
You forgot the greatest gearing up scene of all: Hammer (Isaac Hayes) from "I'm Gonna Get You Sucka (1988).
It's in part two! :D
Arnold made THE BEST action movies. Period. Very good actor as well. Nobody even came close. Nobody.
Evil Dead.....oooooooohhhhhh fuck yeah!....the coolest!
Gearing up scenes of the 80's were the best
The Kurgan assembling his sword in Highlander is a good one too. Way to introduce a villain.
Rambo is the best
