Here is an open and broad topic of discussion.
What is your favorite movie of all time that heavily involved guns and had some kick butt music behind it?
My favorite would have to be Pulp Fiction.
Not only was it a really good movie, but it also blended in music without using a music score. Quentin Tarantino threw in alot of '60s pop and rock in the background that made the movie's tone set without giving it an over the top theme. Obviously guns were an important aspect of the movie, but it wasn't a dummed down ballet of slow motion action and 'der duh der der der duh der der' music going on like the Matrix.
And of course it was thought provoking while involving JOHN TRAVOLTA, SAMUEL L. JACKSON, AND BRUCE FRICKIN' WILLIS!
HOW THE HECK DID THAT HAPPEN!?!?!?!?!?!

Nothing that actively features music really....
Guns on the other hand...
But don't really have a clear favorite come to think of it...

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
Great musical score, had Clint Eastwood and lots of guns.
What's not to like about it?
Zombieland had guns and zombies. Music too but that movie was more about guns and zombies.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Dirty Harry was good.
Not a lot of guns but he was a cop with a .44magnum.
That's all the gun he needs.
