got yourself God sir now what’s the next
step of your master plan trashing this
food as if traveling at high speed in
midair wasn’t nerve-racking enough
someone gonna tell us what the hell is
going on
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
movie playing fights okay one of those
flights here come on
for this list we’re taking a look at
daring dangerous and a little bit unwise
fight sequences that occur in on or
around an aircraft
[Music]
these brutish battles aren’t all midair
acrobatics and fisticuffs sometimes it’s
an actual inflate shoot out or grounded
hand-to-hand combat certainly this is
not what the Wright brothers had in mind
number 10 crews against the world night
and day
turbulence huh if you know anything
about Tom Cruise it’s that he likes to
play characters who are down for a good
fight every now and then
[Music]
cool and what better time to do that
then win a board an airplane anytime is
a good time to scrap when you’re a
secret agent on the run
especially when it’s you against many
don’tmove Miller airplane fighting is a
dangerous job but somebody’s got to do
it and if not Tom Cruise then who I
decided to join you number nine Indy
fights dirty Raiders of the Lost Ark for
the big snack and applies up oh that’s
just my pet snake Reggie
snake sucked by hail we may have grown
accustomed to watching this adventurous
archaeologist dodging boulders and
surviving nuclear explosions but when it
comes time to square up he can also
throw a mean jab or two
[Music]
and when it comes to fighting hulking
Nazi mechanics while the propellers of a
plane loomed dangerously in the
background you know he damn well better
win
especially when there’s gas running all
together too quickly towards a fire it’s
always something
number eight Arnie versus airplane
eraser drop your gun what if you drop
your gun now I promise I won’t kill you
Schwarzenegger is a versatile actor
people aliens and robots are constantly
trying to kill his characters so he gets
into a lot of fights
[Music]
like a lot it would stand to reason that
some of these fights would occur midair
unfortunately for these bad guys if
anyone can hang off the side of a plane
with no parachute and a burning engine
on his ass and survive its Arney
they didn’t know that little things like
physics or logic aren’t going to keep
him from getting the upper hand
[Music]
number seven parachute problems
Moonraker this is where we leave you mr.
Bandhu a little premature isn’t it if
you’re losing a fight to a British
secret agent and happen to get thrown
from a plane you better make darn sure
you’ve got a parachute
and if you do happen to have a parachute
you better double-check and make sure
that it’s been properly secured to your
body otherwise James Bond might just
show up in Jackie O midair
[Applause]
[Music]
moral of the story don’t skydive if your
parachute situation is sketchy or if
double-oh-seven on your tail number six
high altitude heist cliffhanger 5 Lima
we’re opening up
rise and shine gentlemen let’s make
history robbing banks is so old-school
the kids these days as in the early 90s
have started committing heists while up
in a plane was that it’s more of a
thrill it also requires amassing a team
of highly skilled criminals including at
least one person who knows how to fly a
jet and one who’s willing to zipline
between two airborne planes but that
should be easy enough to come by these
are bad once we do it get him to
hospital
[Music]
unfortunately their person in charge of
high-flying murder was a little sloppy
and left the wrong guy alive Tigers
[Music]
[Music]
number five that ain’t a plane that’s a
planet fast and furious 6 now we got a
big-ass plane to deal with that ain’t no
plane that’s a planet this scene might
as well have been called the Battle of
the bulk because of the amount of
feuding muscle
the rock vin diesel and their team are
chasing their enemies across a military
base when the baddies escape plan shows
up Ryder died
Ryder died
never ones to be deterred by a simple
aircraft the good guys follow the bad
guys into the cargo bay and all hell
breaks loose
[Music]
with action in the plane and on the
ground the heroes keep one rule in mind
keep that plane on the ground
number four midair bonding Octopussy
chances are if you’re a villain and
you’re trying to make some form of an
in-flight escape with bond and pursuit
it’s not going to work out for you
especially if he’s equipped with a horse
in an attempt to stop kamal khan and
save Octopussy double-oh-seven hops a
ride on their flight
[Music]
beautiful but as we already know bond is
pretty much the last person you want to
catch a flight with something is always
going down with this dude and it’s not
just the plain number three always bet
on black passenger 57 hope you like your
sirloin sir
bloody
if you thought Wesley Snipes was just
your average everyday commercial flight
passenger well you got that wrong
terrorists
he’s the 57th passenger and he’s gonna
whoop some butt Sally ever play roulette
on occasion well let me give you a word
of advice
always bet on black and it’s a good
thing too because the FBI decided to
transport an international criminal on
this flight and that bad boy has stacked
the plane with cronies that are there to
bust him out how appropriate I’ll have
the steak keep the champagne on ice
we’ll celebrate later maybe the FBI just
wanted to test this retired police
officers fighting skills like an
elaborate training session come on
number two put the bunny back in the box
Conair put the vine back in the box
there are many prison weary criminals
who’d forego their freedom to stay
aboard a plane that’s been hijacked by
even more ruthless criminals oh my god
say there was a disturbance but
everything’s under control say it or I
will kill you
but when you’ve got buddies on board who
need your help the honorable thing is
obviously to stay and fight and ruin the
scarier criminals plans it’s not exactly
mad tais and Yahtzee
but when these scary dudes find out what
you’re up to that you’ve been freed and
that you’re on your way home to your
family you can expect an in-flight fight
and impalement
ah couldn’t you put the bunny back in
the box before our top pick taxis down
the runway here are a few honorable
mentions you don’t give up you know
I got enough friends
sit down
[Music]
number one we don’t negotiate with
terrorists Air Force one great
acknowledge two bridges like that door
now flight control this is Air Force One
declaring emergency if the Russian
terrorists who hijacked Air Force One
thought they were dealing with some
doughy politician turned president they
got a rude awakening
Harrison Ford plays a decorated military
man / president who takes matters into
his own hands when he and his family are
held hostage by Russians who want one of
their comrades released what are your
intentions what the arrogance to think
you could ever understand my intentions
but instead of negotiating with
terrorists
president Marshall just straight-up
kills them himself they obviously didn’t
know that this wasn’t the president’s
first plane fight but they learned their
lesson get off my plane
