Heres one.

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vKdF-IP7rE0&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vKdF-IP7rE0&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>


Notice that the saw tries to fire once and he doesn't reset the compression release for a pull then comes away empty handed. I think anyone that has started an SP125 has shared that experience.

Anyone know what the BC5000 actually is from "My Name is Bruce"?

In Die hard they use an Echo CS8000 Quick Vent to cut the communications conduits for the tower.

Die Harder they use a Stihl to cut the conduits in the ground. I didn't catch the model.

looks like a chromed up XL-12. bruce campbell has a history with homies. in Evil Dead 2 he has a homelite XL attached to his arm

Yeah, it was a joke about him using chainsaws all the time. He was enlisted by a town to save them from a monster, and they provided him with the saw to do the job. He responded "You know Jeff, I've gotten a lot of use out of chainsaws over the years. Killed a lot a zombies, saved a lot of lives, but at the end of the day when push comes to shove... they're just too damn heavy."

Then he walked out with a long slide .45.

:D

I read through this thread the other day but I can't remember if this one was mentioned yet:

How about X-men origins: Wolverine. Wolvy is a logger near the beginning of the movie. It shows him running a saw when the dude kills his ole lady. I could'nt tell what kind but looked like a bigger, older saw.

EDIT: N/M, LOL. I just seen it like the third post!:)

I was the only one in the theater that cheered when he felled that tree :chainsaw:

His saw was some sort of big mac If my memory serves correctly.
