Heavy Metal (1981) - B-17 Scene (Takin\' A Ride - Don Felder)

[Oyabungaijin]

Soundtrack is beyond epic

[TheProtronic]

This is the movie that got me into metal. All these years and it's one of my favorite films.

Anyone surviving WWII was a fucking badass.

[jrobinson1975]

The best sene ever! I still love to listen to this song when i ride my M.C. Ever notice the bombs are falling backwards?

[85szabolcs]

Uh, what exactly are the gunners firing at? I don't see any Japanese fighters...

[yam83]

@85szabolcs German fighters. U.S. never used B-17 extensively to bomb Japan. They used B-29s, which flew higher than Japanese interceptors could reach.

[85szabolcs]

@yam83 I thought the scene takes place in the Pacific. One of the bombers is called "Pacific Pearl" and at the end of the segment the pilot parachutes onto an island with tropical flora on it. Also, B-29's were only used in the Pacific after the spring of 1944.

But even with it's mistakes, it's still a great animation.

This movie introduced me to cartoon blood and boobs!

[ForestHoward]

If you Look at call of duty zombie first map a plane crash and it's the same place like this except they never explain how it crash in the zombies game maybe just look at samiliar things and this is a cool video song goes good with it where the rest of the video.

[kchishol1970]

To me, the first part was always the toughest part to watch in the film, while the rest of the stories are obviously fantasy, the bloody violence of the bombing run during "Takin' A Ride" actually happened in real life during World War II.

[tonyktx44]

I saw this movie when it first opened on two hits of kickas acid. Man what a ride !

[IllusionOfHatred]

When I was this when I was a kid... this "Was" the shit back then. As well still is.

[Argibon]

This sound track is awsome,, thank god it was made before Justin Bieber music.

[Tinkeralch1]

This bit and the song.. was the coolest part to the whole movie back in the day...

[digi7al3891]

@Tinkeralch1 Agreed!... It always amazed me how they achieved the 3D look of the B-17 @ 0:35 back before there was CGI.

[feverdeanmg]

@digi7al3891 Yeah I like that look. They built a model, painted it in high contrast and then filmed it in black and white. The resulting film was used as the basis for rotoscoping (when you use a frame of live action, trace over it as the artwork for an animation cell)

[4Ddreamz]

I remember I had no internet and I was horny... This movie was sitting on my shelf...YEAAAAAAAAAA.

[vada2000]
