Who wants to see Clear and Present Danger?
THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER: th-cam.com/video/aJKQKAK9dc4/w-d-xo.html
THE FUGITIVE: th-cam.com/video/NJTQ-VekCiU/w-d-xo.html
Clear and Present Danger of course🙂
"Clear and Present Danger." And the British agent interrogating Sean Bean is Alun Armstrong.
Clear and Present Danger is a green light.👍👍
CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER is a top peak 90s political thriller for me. Perfect script, acting, execution, production, score. Its just so good. Unsung. Never heard anyone say they didn't like it.
Yes. I think Clear and Present Danger is better than Patriot Games. Great stuff and cast
Clear & Present Danger is a great sequel.❤
C&PD is a better movie but Patriot Games is a better book.
Amen!
Clear and present Danger is technically a prequel. He quits the CIA because of what happened and teaches at the USNA in Patriot Games where the activities convinced him to go back to CIA thus leading to Hunt for Red October.
@@jwoo1800 It is my understanding that Patriot Games is before in The Hunt for Red October in the timeline of the books. Clear and Present danger is after both of those. Jack upper management in the CIA in C&PD.
@@vdoggydogg3922 Correct. Patriot Games, then Red October, then Clear and Present Danger. Of course, one should actually start with Without Remorse which takes place while Jack is still a kid and isn't in the book. This one deals mainly with John Clark, who is a major figure in the later Jack Ryan novels, starting with Clear and Present Danger. The movie was "meh".
I love Clancy's books. Oh how I wish they'd made Red Storm Rising into a movie. That book was a sweeping epic.
Still waiting for a Rainbow 6 movie...
A great first movie to start the year off. I always loved Harrison Ford’s portrayal of Jack Ryan, it’s still the best out of anyone who has played that character.
I have to disagree! He does great and is really very good in A Clear and Present Danger, but for me Alex Baldwin got Jack Ryan right.
I love both Alec and Harrison, but according to Tom Clancy the best Ryan was Ben Affleck. Specifically the actor, I'm pretty sure Tom didn't like the movie.
@@nataliefaust7959i know he wrote or was at least hoping that Affleck would play the role again in i believe it was called "Red Rabbit" that came out around the same time as the film "Sum".
@@mcgilj1 I wish they'd have done Red Rabbit as a period piece with Affleck instead of what they did. It would've worked so much better and been better received.
@@nataliefaust7959 i really need to go back and try and read the books again..i read Games.. But going into Danger there's like 5 pages describing the anteroom behind the Oval Office. Was just a bit too much for me..i ended up reading Jack Higgins Sean Dillion novels.. Which i only mention because when i first read Eye of the Storm i pictured Sean Bean as Dillon.. Which would have been his own spy action franchise. I still think he would have been great.
Hey, Jen!
The novel is quite a bit different, and the people Jack saves in London are The Prince and Princess of Wales.
Yes, Jack had his wife and daughter in Red October, which in the books takes place after the events of Patriot Games. In fact, Gates McFadden (aka Dr. Beverly Crusher on Star Trek The Next Generation) played Cathy Ryan in one scene.
Sean Miller was played by Sean Bean aka Ned Stark. About the time Sean made this, he had the leading role in the British TV series, Sharpe, based on the Bernard Cornwell novels set during the Napoleonic Wars. Sean played the title character Richard Sharpe. When the second series of the show was filmed, Hugh Fraser (who played the traitor Geoffrey Watkins, the secretary to Lord Holmes) played Sean's (aka Sharpe's) commanding officer in the Sharpe series...Arthur Wellesley, The Duke of Wellington.
Sally Ryan was played by Thora Birch, who later played Kevin Spacey's teen daughter in the Oscer-winning American Beauty. Thora returned for Clear And Present Danger, as did Anne Archer as Cathy Ryan. A really good Thora Birch movie, co-starring an equally young Scarlett Johansen is Ghost World.
Polly Walker (Annette, the English woman working with Kevin O'Donnell) has most recently been playing Lady Featherington in the hit Netflix series Bridgerton. Another really great series she did was HBO's Rome, playing Attia, a relation of Julius Caesar and mother of Octavian (later Emperor Augustus Caesar).
The one bit of casting I was not sure you would get was Paddy O'Neal played by the late, great Richard Harris aka Professor Albus Dumbledore #1. Harris usually had some kind of beard, but is clean shaven in this film.
The scene in the novel that I miss the most is Ryan earning the Prince's respect by first telling him off, and then telling him he did things exactly right, by protecting his family.
Hugh Fraser, aka Captain Hastings.
The "Hunt for Red October" novel is very different than the movie, with a lot more background on submarine operations, and a more thrilling and complicated ending that I, personally, liked much better than the movie
@@ptjogaraBravo, Mon amis. 🧐
@@charleshowie2074 If the little grey cells are not exercised, they grow the rust.
Tom Clancy is an excellent read. I highly suggest diving into the books. It's a lot, but there's a lot the movies don't hit which is just as intriguing.
Yes the Jack Ryan series of Tom Clancey novels are great. They are all on audiobook at your library as well. Just listened to Red Storm Rising which is very similar to the events happening in Europe right now. Clear and Present Danger is the follow up to Patriot Games and is an excellent movie.
I never read them but my Dad always talked about how good they are. Red Storm Rising PC game from the late 1980s was my first intro to Tom Clancy. 🖖
I LOVE the audiobooks. Takes me back to when I read them and makes car rides go so fast.
I have always wanted RSR to be made into a movie, or better still a big budget miniseries so they could actually handle all the characters individual story lines. Clancy is one of the kings when it comes to having a LOT of characters all in individual story arcs that all affect each other but back on topic. The problem with RSR is that its a story out of time. When it release I was a serving US Marine and EVERYONE was reading it, but its a cold war story and the cold war ended just a handful of years later. Today the premise would absolutely fit again where Russia in the face of economic collapse due to sanctions attempts to conquer much of Western Europe and take the Persian Gulf oilfields to force a near Russian monopoly on Oil. Please I hope someday to see a faithful version of RSR brought to us (miniseries please).
@@larrybremer4930 I recently read RSR for the first time and found it to be absolutely great. As a German it's even more gripping as a sizeable part of it is taking place in Germany and I wonder if Clancy went location scouting for real, although there are some factual errors and inacurracies concerning some descriptions of Germany and its armed forces at the time. Maybe an idea for a Netflix miniseries set in the 80s...🙂
@@larrybremer4930 " economic collapse" lol
russian economy is better than ever
the usa economy on the other hand
I will never forget, I took my older brother to see this in the theater. He was on leave from the army.
I was soooo excited because I had read the book. Plus, I was 16, had a job, so I bought our tickets & the snacks.
Halfway through the film I look over and my brother had fallen asleep. I was mad at the time but now it’s one of my favourite memories. 😆
Sean Bean has so often played characters who die that a facebook group was started called "Stop Killing Sean Bean."
However, one of his most enjoyable roles is as Richard Sharpe, a soldier in the Napoleonic Wars. Based on the Sharpe novels by Bernard Cornwell, there are sixteen hour and a half TV movies that make up the series. The first, made in 1993, is called _Sharpe's Rifles._
You'd really enjoy them.
Sean Bean, after playing Boromir so delightfully, quickly became my very favorite actor. So after thinking that I'd already seen all his best movies, it was such a delight to catch him in one of his early roles a couple years ago, opposite Sting, Melanie Griffith, and Tommy Lee Jones as a mobster looking to branch out into legitimate business. It's an unusual, idiosyncratic film taking place in Thatcher-era Newcastle, and was shot by the great Roger Deakins: it goes by the name, Stormy Monday
Sharpe's Rifles is an excellent series
Jen, put the Sharpe series on your list, the books too.
Sean Bean has been in a lot of stuff and doesn't die that often.
@@Cheepchipsable FWIW, there's also a "Stop Killing Alan Tudyk" group.
Great reaction! Like all of clancy movies, the books have layers an order of magnitude deeper. If you read them (highly suggested), do NOT skip "Cardinal of the Kremlin". It's a huge binder for the rest of the series of books.
Cardinal of the Kremlin is one of my favorites.
Cardinal of the Kremlin was the first Clancy book I read. Picked it up on a whim at an airport. After I finished it I read all of the Ryanverse books in chronological order. My favorite is Without Remorse. Although they are all great.
@@506thLittleberry Without Remorse is a great book
Cardinal is my favorite of the series. Res Storm is obviously not a Jack Ryan novel so it doesn't count...
The Jack Ryan movies are much like pre-Daniel Craig 007 movies: commonality but no real continuity. Sum of All Fears with Ben Affleck, as well as Shadow Recruit with Chris Pine are both prequels although as I recall they are not chronologically prequels (they are set in the time period of which they are filmed). I have enjoyed all the variations, including the Amazon Prime series. Loved the reaction.Happy New Year!
This is one of those movies I would rewatch a lot as a boy, because Harrison Ford in this movie was one of those dedicated fatherly figures with an important role in society that just stuck with me very heavily, and shaped how I look at male role models in fiction.
The Hunt for Red October is a fantastic novel, Jen. There are also significant differences from the film so it's well worth your time. Red Storm Rising is also fascinating. Xxxx
It's interesting reading Clancy's prediction of how the Stealth Fighter may have looked before they actually released it years later. I like how the pilots nickname it "The Frisbee".
Thanks for reacting.~ 33:20... Clear & Present & Sum of Fears are both real good. PS You'd prob like Kevin Costner/No Way Out.
I'm super excited to see what you think, Miss Jen. Jack Ryan is an interesting character and Phillip Noyce an underrated director. He also directed a spy thriller starring Angelina Jolie called SALT. A MUST watch!
Yes, "Salt" is a great movie.
This was my favorite of the Tom Clancy book based movies.
Nice!
Happy New Year 🕛🎊🎉😊🎇🎆
This was the first Jack Ryan movie I saw on NBC back in the early 90's.
I highly recommend CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER. It's one of the best in the series.
That "strange flute noise" you mentioned is that of a shakuhachi, which is a large Japanese bamboo flute. One of James Horner's frequent collaborators was Kazu Matsui, who was a specialist in this type of instrument.
Other movies scored by Horner which featured prominent usage of shakuhachi's include "Thunderheart" (1992) and "Red Heat" (1988)
impressive knowledge my friend! 📚
@@cjwright79 Thank you:)
Enjoyed the reaction! If I recall correctly, the final boat chase/fight was part of reshoots after studio test screenings in order to up the action factor and give Jack Ryan a more personal showdown with his tormentor. The book is established as a prequel to "Red October" but in the movie it's pretty loose; only really connected to the other movie by James Earl Jones repeating in the role of Greer. He says he's no longer with the C.I.A. at the beginning of the movie, so the implication is that it happens after "Red October." "Clear and Present Danger" reunites most of the same team and has one of my favorite 90's action scenes; I think you'll love that one. "Sum of All Fears" comes after "Clear and Present" in the book continuity, but in the movie it reboots the Jack Ryan character for Ben Affleck as a less experienced analyst; no connection to the prior three movies. "Shadow Recruit" was another reboot which didn't draw from any one book but rather the general biography of the character.
The books can be entertaining reads - at the time, Tom Clancy was really on the forefront of getting accurate information about current military technology and spycraft into his books - to the extent that I've talked to military veterans who said they were cautioned by superior officers to not talk to him!
25:14 This scene was absolutely chilling, because in 1992, it was one of the first times we as a general audience saw warfare being conducted in a manner similar to how we had seen during the first Gulf War only a year or so earlier: by live video feed. The guy drinking coffee and casually saying “that is a kill” exemplified how the public was changing and was starting to accept this “video game” approach to seeing combat at a distance (but with closeups). By showing Jack Ryan (an actual combat veteran himself, who had lived and understood the myriad of emotions and thoughts involved in killing opponents during combat) reacting to this casual observation of combat, depicted a growing gap between people such as Jack, who are actively engaged in protecting the public, with the public itself, who blithely accept death and bloodletting without batting an eye.
Quote: He'd recognize that ponytail anywhere! This is coming from the ponytail authority 😊 you really 'shine' during an espionage reaction Jen. Thanks again...Eric
"Tell me one thing in life that is absolutely for certain."
"Only my love for my dog." 😂 understandable
You should definitely check out both Clear and Present Danger and The Sum of All Fears! Those are probably my two favorite from the franchise.
I used to read Tom Clancy books a lot when I was a teen. So much so that when I found out someone was from a town in Germany, my first thought was "That's where Tom Clancy wrote the russians would make their first attack."
The antagonist Sean Miller also played Boromir in Lord of the Rings ("One does not simply walk into Mordor"). Sean Bean. He also is the main character in Sharpe's Rifles.
While she doesn't get to do much here, the actress playing Annette (Polly Walker) really shines in HBO's ROME. She half carries the show due to her flamboyance and with how the story circles around her constantly.
Yep, the bad guy terrorist is played by Sean Bean, 006 in Goldeneye. He is also known for dying in most of the shows and movies he's in.
Back in 1994, I did a college video project using "Harry's Game", the song from Clannad on the soundtrack. Love that song.
Hi Jen hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤
Thanks John you too!
I think the most interesting aspect of the Jack Ryan series is how independent they are from each other from movie to movie. You could literally pick up and start with any movie and be OK. It's almost like each movie is a different alternate universe with CIA agent Jack Ryan. I would definitely check out the next two!
If you ever read the Jack Ryan books, it is said that he has a photographic memory, thats how he remembers the pony tail. Enjoy your content
Jen Murray starts the new year with and excellent film. Score is excellent! Harrison in his prime. Hope you enjoyed it and Thanks!
Alec Baldwin was replaced because he wanted more money. Paramount stated that he, at the time, wasn't a big enough name to ask for anything. That's the nature of business.
Great reaction. Jack Ryan (character) has been played by a host of different actors (Ben Affleck to Chris Pine). They are good books. Patrick Bergin is from 5 mins away from me. Met him once. Nice man. The cool music is Clannad, you should check them out.
Seconded on the Clannad recommendation … although Jen should be aware that the Clannad track used in this movie (“Harry’s Game”) is a standout in their catalog. I had a friend who loved that piece of music, bought a different Clannad album and was rather disappointed. I do like quite a few of their other songs, but “Harry’s Game” is far and away their best.
I have only openly wept when reading books twice in my life, and when Sally got hurt and her condition was touch and go was one of them.
Great Reaction.....
The Jack Ryan Series Written by Tom Clancy is Great, there are approx 10 books in the Series, Sadly the 4 movies they made, they made out of order in the Book Series, and changed the Sequence/Timeline.....
I definately recommend "Clear and Present Danger" and "Sum of All Fears".......
7:51 Little sisters ARE the best. My dad disowned me when I enlisted. My older sister blamed me for causing pain and division in the family. My mom sympathized with me but stayed mostly silent to keep the peace. My little sister was the only one who actively stood up for me despite the arguments it opened, kept me in touch with the family, reached out to me when I was struggling with PTSD, and eventual helped my dad and me reconcile. I simply cannot forgive any man who mistreats his little sister.
Hi Jen! I am about 30 books in. Yes it a great series!!!! Especially the first ten or so. Love all your reactions so much. Keep up the great work 💜
I really liked Jack Ryan's family in this. His daughter was insanely cute, and his wife was beautiful, smart, and capable in dangerous situations.
“What was it?”
It was a baby!! 😜🤣🤣🤣
“Duh”
-Screech Powers
This one is good but Clear and Present Danger is by far my favorite Jack Ryan movie.
Agree. It's def better
Thank you Jen! Another interesting move presented with your signature fun and lovable personality. Many other reaction channels seem to be hitting the wall recently with weak movies and a dearth of charisma.
8:01 - Richard Harris. Portayed 'Dumbledore' in first two Harry Potter movies, Marcus Aurelius in 'Gladiator', Abbé Faria in 'The Count of Monte Cristo' and English Bob in 'Unforgiven'.
25:36 they attacked the right camp, ask Cooley's body confirmed. Everybody else had left before the attack.
As far as I know Jack was never a field agent in any of the films. Just an analyst.
Hey Jen, so the Clancy novels sometimes occur in a different chronology than the movies timeline. "Patriot Games" is not a prequel but a sequel of sorts to "The Hunt for Red October." "A Clear & Present Danger" is the third and final movie of the trilogy.
"The Sum of All Fears" is kind of a reboot/prequel as it is set in it's current day, but before Jack and Catherine have kids. Chris Pine then assumes the role in yet another reboot "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit".
Finally the role of Jack Ryan goes to John Krasinski in the excellent Amazon original series; "Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan" in a ground-up reimagining of the series, set in modern day and telling Jack's origin story as an operative.
The answer to "should I read this series?" is an emphatic YES! Start with Hunt for Red October, and read the first 8 books in publication order. When you get to the book "The Sum of All Fears", there will come a chapter called "Three Shakes". When you see that chapter, stop... use the restroom, eat a meal, and make sure you have no appointments to keep for the next 12-14 hours.... you won't put the book down until the end.
Jen, Irish blood you may possess (and good for you), but your English accent is still the cutest thing I've ever heard! 😅🥰 xxxxx
25:25 "Neutralized." Back in the late 80s, before the U.S. got involved in multiple endless wars, I heard a journalist say that generals in the other services would say things like "neutralize," "take out," "eliminate," etc. in front of civilians, but only Marine generals would actually say "kill."
The next in the series is, "Clear and Present Danger". Very, very good.
Your Canadian comes out more when you get excited lol.
Really had fun watching the full reaction with you Jen and I always enjoy watching the TH-cam edit just incase you drop a nugget 🙂 hope you're having a lovely start to the year and Boston and the kitties are having fun too 😺🐶🙌
Thanks Ian! :)
@@jenmurrayxo I would say the movies are relatively stand-alone in terms of watching them. The Novels are great. I think as a whole the movies were done in a way to make the changes in lead actor for a younger version. The Sum of All Fears, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, and the Jack Ryan Amazon TV Series all I believe Have Ryan as unmarried, though I believe most include Cathy as a young steamy romance storyline. The Clancy Novels are great, and do follow a continual story line, which leads to Ryan eventually becoming President after a terrorist attack demolishes a significant portion of the Government. (He was only supposed to be temporarily VP to finish out a term after I believe a scandal lead to a resignation.
@@jenmurrayxoJen's best line "Clonk him!" We all know Jen loves an explosion! I'm so impressed how amazing your hearing is, above even the best composers you can identify every note of orchestra arrangement, such a gift 🎁 you'll love Clear And Present Danger Amazing film Jen 😊
I feel like the ponytail would also be Evil Jen's Achilles' heel... which is regrettable because Evil Jen does deserve a nice lair.
As a kid I read all of Tom Clany's novels before I saw the movie version. This is one of my favorites for sure (both book and movie). Happy New Year!! EDIT: Also super surprised you don't know Sean Bean as Ned Stark In Game of Thrones......
Or Boromir in The Lord of the Rings.
I love how excited Jen gets about Zoom and Enhance lol
“Alright we’re checking OOT Patriot games” love it ❤😂 I need to go to Canada just for the OOTs! 😂 🇬🇧🇨🇦
All of the Jack Ryan novels are excellent.
Choosing this for a rewatch today 🙂 and it didn't disappoint i particularly liked you doing an irish accent 😀 strange to you we wear those wigs in court im guessing that means its just a British thing then ?? Is Samuel Jackson in literally every movie ever 😄 14.42 "holy shhhhh...." Jen to shocked to add the it on the end lol brilliant stuff jen . This was a fun rewatch indeed jen plays with her cord we know shes watching intensely 🙂 great stuff jen cheers for another fun one 🔥💙🔥💙
Hunt for Red October is the first Jack Ryan novel and Patriot Games is a prequel novel but the film isn't meant to take place before the Red October movie. Despite what the last fifteen years of Jack Ryan adaptations would have you believe Jack Ryan has never been a field agent; the man has been a marine, stock broker, professor of history, national security advisor and president.
Jack Ryan has been played by a LOT of actors. Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, Chris Pine, and John Krasinski. Granted, without a doubt the character with the most actors by an landslide is Dracula. No other character comes close to the number of actors who have portrayed him in some fashion worldwide.
Love how he is shot in the right collarbone but in the very next scene, they have him all bandaged up on the left arm. There are so many errors in this movie, but it always is a fun watch.
A return of Jen watching a movie with the half-Irish Harrison Ford is always a good start to the year. :)
Also, the terrorist attack in the beginning I believe was based on the 1979 assassination of the 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma (Prince Philip's uncle) which also killed his grandson and one of his daughter's mother-in-law.
In the novels, Patriot Games was set before Hunt for Red October, but was written and released after. In the movies, it's set after Hunt for Red October, though they did not refer to it directly, maybe to hide the actor change from Alec Baldwin to Harrison.
@5:07 "This music" is the track "Harry's Game" sung by Clannad.
In the hunt for red october his family only appears at the start of the film, his wife was played by Gates Mcfadden, Dr Crusher herself.
Jack Ryan's personal history changes somewhat depending on when the movies are made, but he has always has been a veteran, with a back injury, who works as a CIA analyst, and woman in his life is usually a doctor.
Patriot Games as a film is a sequel to Red October. In the books, Patriot Games takes place chronologically before Red October. ♥
In the novel: a) It's Prince Charles, Princess Diana, and Prince William whose lives Jack Ryan saves, b) the story takes place over the nine months of Ryan's wife's pregnancy and she gives birth on the night of the climax (it's a boy), c) Paddy O'Neill and Jack Ryan never meet. I don't remember the exact ending in the book but test audiences didn't like the original ending in the movie so they reshot the boat chase in the parking lot at Paramount studios which is contained and can be blooded with water (the parting of the Red Sea in THE TEN COMMANDMENTS was also filmed there). Also, like RED OCTOBER, the novel takes place before the fall of the Soviet Union and, like RED OCTOBER, the movie was made afterward so Jack Ryan's speech at the London college had to be re-written to reflect the Soviet Union's "recent" collapse.
As a fan of Poirot, I loved seeing Hastings' actor in this
I loved the Jack Ryan series of Clancy books, along with Red Storm Rising. They are definitely techno-nerd military novels though.
Why did I find this so funny? 'I want to look through a bunch of files, marked SECRET.'
As someone who grew up in Belfast during the Troubles, these movies make me laugh. They paint the IRA as some kind of super soldiers, doing cliff assaults, rapelling, speed boat chases etc. In reality they spent their time running protection rackets, knee-capping kids, selling drugs, planting indiscriminate bombs and shooting unsuspecting victims. They would only launch attacks that they were sure they could get away from. They weren't running around doing night assaults in black assault kit with night vision.
The first 3 "Jack Ryan" movies were really fun to watch, growing up in the 90s. The 2 newer ones are worth the watch as well. You should go for it Jen, and just watch them all.
The villain of this film is the same bad guy from the First National Treasure film and was in The Martian from 2014.
Back then personal night vision was definitely a 'Holy crap check that out!' moment.
I just noticed an inconsistency. When Jack Ryan slides down the car door after being shot the wound was in his right shoulder. When his wife checked it was in his left shoulder. Then in the hospital it was his right shoulder again. He wore the sling on his right arm.
Thank You Irish Canadian Jen Murray!
In no way, shape or form is this a prequel to the hunt for red October. This takes place well after the hunt for red October
Sean Bean Sean-Bean-ing. And catching an anchor to the face, for real.
Love this film. So glad you did it. The CIA scenes were actually filmed at the real headquarters. The first time it was allowed.
What! So cool!!
The book may have been set prior to "Hunt...", but the age of Ford and the fact that during "Hunt..." it was suggested that Ryan had only one child then seems to point to Patriot Games being a sequel theatrically. Same goes for Clear and Present Danger, as Ryan is...well, you have to watch it to find out. The movie Sum Of All Fears with Affleck was really kind of meant as a reboot, I think.
Sean Millar was played by the actor Sean Bean. He also played Boromir in Lord of the Rings.
So happy you watched this. I hope to soon watch *Clear and Present Danger* it is a full step up from this. Happy new year!
This movie is cool, but you got to swing around and pick up Clear and Present Danger, Next Jen. It's one of those rare movies that don't quite follow the book, but was still very good in its own right. Oh, it's another Harrison Ford Jack Ryan movie, by the way.
Hi Jen , Annie Archer is now playing Ryan`s wife can you remember who played her in Red October , it was Doctor Beverly Crusher herself Gates Mcfadden in a small part ..
ps
Also Dont forget there is the series "Tom Clancy`s Jack Ryan" with John Krasinski playing the young Jack Ryan & his advventures in the CIA (2018 onwards , so far we have 4 series)
Great start to 2024! Good movie and reaction! Lots of action and shoot em up in this movie! The series is good and i would watch along With you!😁 Thanks Jen❤💛
The instrument you're noticing is called a waterphone-- it's really cool and creepy. It's basically a series of metal tubes and a small water tank and you draw a violin bow across it.
So cool!!
For you youngsters out there, Mrs. Ryan is Dennis and Sweet Dee's mom from IASIP.
Early 90's, these guys would have LOVED to have had drones.
The question you asked about non-Brits being knighted is directly addressed in the book... As far as the U.S. is concerned it is strictly honorary, Jack says he will accept it provided it does not cause any conflict with his duty as a U.S. citizen.
You will like Clear And Present Danger . This is a nice mix of whodunnit and action . And you got your explosion ! I love your Jenthusiasm watching this genre , it makes me smile , inside and out . Thanks Ms. M you're the best !
This movie shares some musical DNA with 1986's Aliens, which Horner also did music for.
The events in Patriot Games are supposed to happen before Hunt For Red October.
Don't miss Sean Bean, who always seems to die in his movies. He played Boromir in Lord of the Rings.
My favorite Tom Clancy novel is "Without Remorse." It introduces Mr Clarke.
Remember that old lady at 16:21, you will be seeing her very later on in TNG.
No, this is meant to be a sequal. His daughter was a baby in the last one. However in the book series, Patriot Games was first.
My fav Jack Ryan movie. When it comes to Clancys books, the problem I have is that every other chapter is 20 pages of technical military technology jargon. The stories are great but he goes on major tangents about the specs of planes, boats, guns, etc.
Hi, Jen, what a pleasant surprise! For whatever reason, I wasn't expecting this until tomorrow. Cool!
YES YES YES YES YES YES, you must read Tom Clancy AND Robert Ludlum suspense thriller novels. These two authors were the very best suspense thriller writers out there....and even by today's standards, they are still the best. Robert Ludlum and Tom Clancy are both the G.O.A.T (Greatest Of All Time) when it comes to suspense thrillers. Btw, Tom Clancy is known for his Jack Ryan series of novels, while Robert Ludlum is known for his Jason Bourne series of novels.
The daughter Thora Birch was in Hocus Pocus and much later American Beauty.
In the book, Jack saves Prince Charles and Diana. They were divorced by the time of the film.
The book was a prequel. This is a sequel.
The end is completely different from the book. The books are extremely detail oriented, but good if you like that. I believe that The Sum of All Fears may diverge from the book the most, but I can't remember the film.
The follow up to this Clear and present danger is really good and co stars William Defoe. Happy New Year🎉🍾🥂👍
It can't be said enough... read or grab the audiobooks of Tom Clancy.(R.I.P.) Great novels and the author himself and his "process" is well documented and applauded. Genre defining.The "Prime channel" "Jack Ryan stream series is respectable.👏🏾 Be the only reactor to watch🙏
Definitely go read the books. One main difference between the novel and the film of Patriot Games, was the original target of the Millers, which was the Prince and Princess of Wales. Another novel that hasn’t made it to the big screen is Debt of Honor, which echoes what happened on 9/11 (although published in 1994).
The Cardinal of the Kremlin (the one Clancy novel I’d like to see turned into a film) introduces us to John Clark, who gets his own story in Without Remorse, which then brings into the world of counterterrorism with Rainbow Six (I believe a movie is in the works). Rainbow Six was turned into a successful franchise of video games.
Red Storm Rising is not in the Jack Ryan series but is about the invasion of West Germany by the USSR. It’s one book I couldn’t put down, it was the Cold War at its height now gone hot - fictitiously (for more pessimistic novels, turn to The Third World War by Sir John Hackett and, Red Army by John Peters). While fictitious, the F-19 Frisbees in the RSR chapter, The Frisbees of Dreamland, would have a real life counterpart revealed in Operation Desert Storm in 1990.
