(*b387b012*):: Watching “The Rock”
(*b387b012*):: +public!
(*b387b012*):: “The Rock” is basically Nic Cage screaming about VX gas while Sean Connery smirks his way through Alcatraz like he’s late for tea with the Queen. Ed Harris plays a grumpy general who’s mad at the government (relatable), so he decides to hold San Francisco hostage with chemical weapons — because why not?
(*b387b012*):: I watched this over and over on vhs as a kid
(*b387b012*):: Great times
(*b387b012*):: Ed Harris is actually very nice to the hostages
(*b387b012*):: I’m surprised each mercenary is only getting $1M for the mission. But I suppose that’s a lot in 1996
