Do you think they’d film a sequel these days? In San Francisco? If so, would Harry get to shoot punks?

Million to one says no, no and no.

Harry shot the wrong punks.

The punks would slip and fall in the piles of sh...er... fecal matter.


Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

He'd likely shoot a few politicians while while under deep cover, then retire to the South Pacific.Might even set foot instead a movie theater again, if it becomes a flick?


If three or more people think you're a dimwit, chances are at least one of them is right.

Eastwood is waaaaay too long in the tooth. Perhaps Hollywood would cast Leonardo DeCaprio as "Dirty Harry, Jr." A well mannered cop who is "woke" and empathizes with the social justice warriors in San Francisco. Instead of shooting them, he'd have a dialogue with them, suggesting they return the money they've stolen from elderly citizens, apologize to all those whom they beat up, and then work on community projects to improve relations with all whom they've harmed.

And everyone lives happily ever after. grin

SF was a schithole in those days too. remember the mayor or whatever wanted him fired. they were primed for pussification even then.

Having another Dirty Harry SFPD movie where he is still the same old Harry Callahan would be a real blockbuster.

People would line up to pay to see some non-PC justice. smile

Hollywood wouldn't allow any Academy awards for it though.

Nowadays the 21st century "Dirty Harry" would be more of a "Sanitary Harry". All "woke" and most likely gay. He would portray an eccentric billionaire who fights for social justice and does so voluntarily so as not to burden the defunded and budget strapped police who are nothing more than a terrorist arm of the KKK anyway. I bet a movie like that would bomb big time; but the idiots in Hollywood would probably make it anyway, lose millions on it and then blame someone else for its failure in the marketplace.

True, but there were a few warriors still around. One of my most glorious moments occurred at SFO as I left the plane that brought me home. 6 Dec ‘72 it was. Bit younger and had a 80# duffle bag on my shoulder. 3 Hare Krishna wonks tried to block my departure. I never broke stride and all of them wound up on their butts. May have smiled for a week after that.

Maybe it could be adjusted for the passing years? Harry could be a Klingon on the Entrrprise and when nobody is looking he beams all the idiots to wherever the Tribbles live?

Hard to say but I like to think if Clint Eastwood had much to do with it, say as director, I doubt he would pull very many punches. He sure didn't in Grand Torino.

He would have to hunt down and kill police after the murder poor little black criminals like Trayvon, Michael Brown and George Floyd. He would be so effective that that the police would refuse to arrest blacks.

The only thing dirty about Harry these days is probably his depends.
