I will upload the rest of the movie! Just stay tuned and subscribe!!!

[kidfrombrooklyn66]

There another version of this movie (a made for tv verson Feb 1998)

Starring Edward James Olmos (Miami Vice), Vincent D'Onofrio, Donnie Wahlberg.

I have no clue where the 1998 version can be found or if it's available on video/dvd. As fas as I known, it only ran only one time.

[123PelhamMovie]

yea, i heard about that! So that makes the newest remake the 3rd. Pretty pathetic of Hollywood...

[Irmarambaran]

Please upload the rest as soon as you can. I hear the new version is no match for the original.

[123PelhamMovie]

sorry, it might be a while. I'm working on a stopmotion video for another account called stopmotion08 and my goal, for now, is to finish it.

[Tbrady81]

are u going to upload them all?

[123PelhamMovie]

probably, but no promises. I'm hoping to have them uploaded within the next week or two.

[condors1972]

fuck travolta and Washington. this is the REAL 123

[Jerraph]

Too right.

WHY do they have to remake classic movies - but make them far inferior to the original? Waste of time.

[Rkevin213]

I love the music

[The7683mick]

すごく面白いですよ

[rs101156]

I totally agree Jerraph....this is a great movie. The reason they remake classics is because its easier then thinking and writing a script to something new or original. Its called laziness.

[MittNamnFrigolit]

Ah Robert Shaw! He is the man!

[buzzclick500]

One of the very best movies of the '70s--WOW.  ;])

[preving]

My favorite movie of all time.

@WarrenPace

Let me see...NOT! This movie was made in 1974; Gibson's Payback was in the late 90s. Which means if there was any artistic licence it wasn't from the 1974 original Pelham 1,2,3

[CesMan83]

@123PelhamMovie

Yeah, it truly is pathetic of Hollywood to do TWO remakes of a great original movie. It shows that the film industry's losing ideas. However, I am an aspiring screenwriter, and once I make myself established, I'll make it a strong policy of mine to never do remakes...no matter how the studio suits want them or not!

[GhettoKarter1992]

this movie is WAY DAMN better than the Denzil Washington version
