Is that supposed to be a joke? The rest of the movie is fine up until that point. I almost spewed in my mouth haha. Makes Conan look like a Disney movie.
Ain't no goddamn takes, ain't no goddamn motion picture -

I always liked the part where all the pissant soldiers are unloading their machine guns into the shed, and then when they're all done shooting, one of them fires a single shot from a handgun. I would have been funny if Matrix stumbled out of the shed with a mortal wound immediately afterward.
But I guess I enjoy killing a little too much -

Likewise the poor dude who had his arm chopped off, reeling away on the ground gaping in horror at the bloody stump that was once his limb.
It's like the film makers put that scene in as a joke thinking the censors would take it out, but it got left in somehow. I love action movie violence - Rambo, Predator, Terminator etc, but that shed scene in Commando takes the taco. I don't know what the beep they were thinking with that scene. It's horrific.
Acting like you some one-man GPS -

I read that he wanted to pick up the severed arm and hit the guy on the head with it. They nixed that
I remember Toxie from
The Toxic Avenger (1984)
doing something like that, ripping a guys arm off then beating him and his goons with his blood dripping arm. Pretty brutal even if it was meant as a parody of the slasher genre. -

It's one of the funniest and coolest scenes of all time. The movie is much better since the legit uncut shed scene was added. Seeing the weird looking guy get scalped then "Cutting warm butter" get his arm hacked off never fails to raise a smile with me. I may have some issues

Yeah. That was so hard core. Someone in this topic mentioned they wanted to have Arnold whack the guy in the head with his detached arm. Something like that happened in a Frankenstein comic from the 70s. Only it was a robot version of the monster that lost its arm and it uses it to whack some little trolls attacking it. It's as funny as it sounds. Anyway it is funny how easily Arnold took those guys out.
Green Goblin is great! -

When it's played on TV they edit it so that you only see one guy shooting at the shed - he gets pitchforked, then you don't see the saw blades, the axe or the machete. Then he picks up the magic M60 that no one was holding lol.
