My B-17


If the timing was right, and I was the pilot of of a USAAF B-17 flying over Hitler's Fortress Europe, and Geena Davis was around, I would do something cool with my plane. Providing that she would approve, I'd have my crew chief find the best artist in England, and have him paint the nose of my B-17 with a Vargas style image, of Geena Davis in a bikini, showing those 36" inseam legs, riding a 1,000 bomb. My plane would be named "Golly Geena", and would make anything else in the 8th and 11th US Army Air Corps look like they needed better subjects. There were many beautiful women painted on the nose of US aircraft, Betty Grabel and Lana Turner being popular. But, in the time it took to taxi and take off, "Golly Geena" would be the star.

WTF? Is right

Anyone know that is movie is the biggest "flop" in history? Losing an estimated 81 MILLION DOLLARS?!?

Davis' Cutthroat co-star Matthew Modine flew a B-17 in the film Memphis Belle... other than that, yeah WTF?

Knock, knock. Who's there? Your butt that's about to be kicked!

Actually, I see where you are coming from, but what would make more sense in the context of this message board for Cutthroat Island would be Golly Geena as a figurehead on your ship's prow...

It would be out of necessity, 3-D so those legs would pretty much be riding the bow of your pirate ship...

Conquer your fear, and I promise you, you will conquer death.

Carry on!!
