Anyone happen to know this scene......

[Colonel Sanders]

So yea I've posted this on a few forums, figured I would here just in case. But um yea I had a random memory pop up from when I was on vacation in Florida when I was about 12-13 I would say. I remember flipping channels and I saw some movie/show I caught the end of... and it showed Neil Patrick Harris in a trench coat, walked into a fancy diner with a shotgun and just started killing everybody, and it was in slow motion.

It's fucking annoying me to death so if anyone knows what I'm talking about... I hope :/

I hate when I have random ass memories come up out of nowhere. Gotta solve the questions.

[Stinger]

"Starship Troopers" maybe?

[TJ60]

almost sounds like basketball Diaries, are u sure it wasn't lenardo Decaprio?

[Colonel Sanders]

Pretty damn sure it was NPH

[Colonel Sanders]

I've never seen basketball diaries though so you just gave me a new movie to download and watch.

[Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream]

i never knew neil patrick harris was a fudgepacker

[Colonel Sanders]

I don't give a shit hes a Unique actor. Not to say I am making a special exception cause hes an actor though, I still hate gays.

Kinda like Tom Cruise and the scientology issue. When I pay to go a see a movie that he stars in I pay for his acting prowess, not the church, once it's in his pocket he can do what he wants with it...the same can be said of everyone, he is no exception and to boycott his movies is stupid cause he can be a great actor.

[Stinger]

"Starship Troopers" maybe?


No thoughts about this one then?

[Colonel Sanders]

No Starship Troopers isn't even close

[Stinger]

No Starship Troopers isn't even close

Starship Troopers

A film review by Christopher Null - Copyright © 1998 Filmcritic.com

Move over, John Waters. There’s a new king of schlock in town, and he’s got a much bigger budget.

The recent video release of last year’s Starship Troopers reveals a master at work, comfortably at home in his truest of elements: cheesy action films. Paul Verhoeven is the master in question, the director of such fare as RoboCop and Basic Instinct—his last really successful film, in 1992. With a $95 million budget, Troopers eventually grossed a little over half that domestically, but it has done well enough overseas to ensure that, like Schwarzenegger in Verhoeven’s Total Recall, he’ll be back.

Watching Troopers is a much different experience than watching, say, Aliens. While both are oriented around the wholesale slaughter of an alien race (giant bugs this time), Aliens treats its plot with complete seriousness. Troopers is a bit more underhanded, feeding you a special effects extravaganza (which include, in all honesty, some of the best I’ve ever seen) with one hand, and slapping you with the leather glove of history with the other. In fact, what makes Troopers—and the book it’s based on, I’m told—so enjoyable is its ode to fascism. Whether it’s Neil Patrick Harris in a fully-buttoned, black leather S.S. trench coat or the “I’m doing my part!” propagandist chants, the homage is blatant. And, it’s an incredibly entertaining look into what must have been going through the minds of young Nazi recruits.

If this isn’t enough to interest you, Verhoeven doesn’t pull any stops with the full tilt cheesefest. The casting of the likes of the whiter-than-white Harris, Meyer, Richards, and Van Dien as Argentinians is the first tip-off that you’re in for a screamer of a time. But wait, there’s more! Troopers has sadistic drill sergeants, co-ed group showers, and some of the richest dialogue in cinema. One of the best lines comes from Muldoon’s Zander, directed at the bugs, when he screams “One day someone like me is gonna kill you and your whole FUCKIN' RACE!”

So cut Paul some slack and check out Starship Troopers. Throw in Showgirls for a really tasty double feature. After all, it’s going to take some solid video rental revenues to make sure Verhoeven gets funding for another big-budget free-for-all.

And hey... I’m doing my part!


Seems rather close to me. *pfft*

[Colonel Sanders]

I know NPH was in it, and I know he wore a trench coat...but I've seen that movie enough to know every part of it...and he never even pulled a gun in the movie.

[Stinger]

Maybe this will help.

[Jimmy James]

the animal room?

[Dymond]

I would start at IMDB.com and look at NPH filmography.. maybe something will click.

[Colonel Sanders]

Yeah I already did do that, nothing stood out. I've only seen like 1 movie with him in it sans the one I'm trying to remember.

[Puppy Dogs and Ice Cream]

i faintly remember him being on an episode of the outer limits back in the late 90's but could be wrong...i was smoking alot of dope then

[Stinger]

Should be easy enough to narrow it down from here...if you were 12-13 years old at the time you saw it...has to be 2000 or earlier (italics). We can safely assume that he (NPH) was past the Doogie Houser MD series (full grown-post 1993). Assuming also that it was an actual movie rather that a television series episode, and that it was also not a "family-oriented" movie we can assume from the following that it would NOT be...(red)

I made your definite "NO" blue as well as my own. If we assume that this was a first run movie (1998-2000)...likely not NPH, or it was an episode for some television series within the target range. Otherwise, a repeat it must have been...given the movie content of those dated 1999-2000. Good Luck.

[glamgurl36]

probably doogie hoser or however you spell it

[TJ60]

I must have missed that episode.....did doogie get pissed and shoot the cafe across the street from the hospital in ER?

[Stinger]

probably doogie hoser or however you spell it

Curious...did you even READ the OP? Maybe you never watched Doogie Howser MD? *lol*

I must have missed that episode.....did doogie get pissed and shoot the cafe across the street from the hospital in ER?

A trenchcoat wearing child doctor shooting up the ER...now that might have made the series worth watching.
*lmao*
