Great Moments in Amercan Film According To Me

"Lone Wolf McQuade" is by far my favorite Chuck movie. I'm not gonna get into the "Chuck Norris Mythology" here. Quite frankly, its old. But, what I will get into is how awesome he is in this movie.

Chuck portrays J.J. McQuade, a Texas ranger who plays by his own rules, a lone wolf. He also drives a Bronco that takes a pretty good beating and can pretty much drive through anything. His antagonist is Rawley Wilkes, played by David Carradine, who is the local crime lord. They both are in love with the same woman and Rawley will do whatever it takes to get rid of McQuade. He also kidnaps J.J.'s daughter.

Upon finding out that Wilkes has acquired automatic weapons, McQuade takes it upon himself to take out the vile villain once and for all. And thats when my favorite part of the movie takes place.

After a lengthy gun battle in which McQuade drives into the armed base of Mr. Wilkes, his new partner helplessy watches as J.J. and his truck are buried underneath about two tons of dirt. Rawley walks away laughing, finally ridding himself of this troublesome ranger...or so he thinks.

Cut to J.J., beaten but not down, sitting up in the drivers seat. Any other man would have given up and accepted their eventual, slow death. Not McQuade. In a way of saying "Fuck you Rawley!", he cracks a fucking beer, pours a little over his face, and takes a sip. Ohh, but hes not done yet. After a near death that most men dream about, he fucking drives through the fucking dirt! And afterwards has just enough strength to get one last shotgun round off before falling to the ground. His sidekick does his best to revive him, to which J.J. rolls over, opens his eyes, and whith a smile, asks for a beer.
