Members Emprov Posted August 26, 2007 Members Share Posted August 26, 2007 A drummer that I play with did drum corps when he was in college. He says that the movie has quite a few, uhmmm, accuracy problems. Entertaining flick but still.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Emprov Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 Yep, sounds like they did rip off Top Gun. I've read that many of the scenes in Top Gun were real though -- modeled after one of the consultants. In particular, the "She's lost it...." bar scene is supposed to have happened.

Yeah..... but that movie isn't about DCI (a mistake, if you ask me.....) it was about the traditionally Black Universities, like Florida A&M!

Members burdizzos Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 Top Gun would have been better if Maverick would have interviewed for a position with the Soviet Navy. Drumline would have been better if the dopey white kid would have been killed in a tragic accident at the campus Dairy Queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members chunky-b Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 The Best Buy down the street keeps Drum Line on it's presentation TV and surround sound show off... Everytime I am in there, someone cranks the volume and you see 3 or 4 guys trying to convince their wives that they need a setup like that...

Members SteveyDevey Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 +1 I put it on at work for something to have on in the background, thinking the that drumming might be interesting. Wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Real MC Posted August 28, 2007 Members Share Posted August 28, 2007 The best part of that movie is the way-too-short thirty second excerpt of Nick Cannon's character listening to his dad's tapes playing some of the hippest old-school funk. I searched in vain for that track on the soundtrack or anywhere!!! Pretty good movie though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
