It was great to pay a visit to this place really legendary ground to be walking in. It was great to see a few homage pieces paid to the king of Oakland and style DREAM.

The Three Amigos " I'm Drawing a line" scene

This has always been one of my favorite personal movies ever since I was a kid and my father bought it for my brother and I to watch. There is so much to this movie I can appreciate. They really don't make movies quite like this anymore. Lately there has been a scene in a movie I've been thinking of and it is a scene where a man decides to stay and face the fight, it took me a while to realize that the scene is from this movie so I decided to post about it.
The city of Santa Poco is about to be attacked by the Villain El Guapo and The Three Amigos are faced with a critical choice to make, fight or flee. I have been finding myself making those life defining choices a lot more lately since I've decided to move back to San Francisco. Its like taking on the world and each choice can either make you or break you. I wanted to pay homage to that scene, I couldn't find an actual clip of it so ill just type it out. Enjoy! if you get a chance to watch the movie, highly recommended and it is a classic!




Lucky: Let's go back to Hollywood


Dusty: The sooner the better


Lucky: It's too hot down here


Dusty: Bad for my hay fever


Lucky: We don't belong here anyway


Dusty: Where's Ned?


( Ned is reloading his pistol with real bullets.)


Lucky: Ned, what are you doing?


Ned: What do we have to go back to? We have no jobs. No money, no place to live, no friends, no women, no self respect-


Dusty: Ned, We could get killed.


Ned: Back there The Three Amigos are already dead. Here we could be The Three Amigos for real. I'm drawing a line. Men or mice, what'll it be?


(the two others cross the line to meet Ned.)
