Love that scene!

100% agree with you! I always thought the same thing.
Like Miami Vice, To Live And Die In L.A or Band Of The Hand.
I love those movies for that reason!

*beep* i could have sworn he used his lighter to heat the pizza up. But I have'nt seen it in a while so have forgotten most of the movie. I must be thinking of another movie, I think maybe K9

I would too but my pizza already comes precut.

Because of this film, if im having a confrontation with a guy i rip his shirt off his chest in one pull and walk away leaving him pawned...cobra style

I use scissors to this day to cut pizza.

Be sure to listen to the commentary track featuring George P. Cosmatos. This scene in particular features some amazing insights from him.

"Now Sly comes home and we see how he lives. He hides the cleaner in the egg carton. And here he uses the scissors on the pizza."

Imagine the above text read aloud by Michael Lonsdale doing an Italian accent and you might understand why it's so great.

Love that scene! Just badass

Cobretti was bad-ass in every way, whether eating pizza or killing bad guys. You don't mess with The Cobra!

What's "badass" about having the appetite of a little girl? He couldn't even eat one slice of pizza?

I only like the Toys R Us Christmas ad.

Eat the whole piece like a man. He cuts it with scissors to portion out a small amount of pizza becasue he's a health freak....like when he tells his friend to eat more nuts and raisons. So, he's allowed the tate of pizza but only in that small of a portion. Gezz...eat the whole slice.

reply

Why? All Cobra needed was a small piece. He saved the rest for later. You don't get killer abs of steel by pigging out on pizza!

reply

Yeah, his face when Ingrid was soaking the fries with ketchup was beyond priceless xD

In almost all of these "over-the-top" action movies, the hero is hardly ever seen eating. As with this movie, Cobra cuts a very small piece of pizza and he never eats again. I suppose if you are seen eating or consuming food of any kind, it's a sign of weakness. The hero is too busy killing his enemies to eat. No time for a candy bar, apple or even a stick of gum. But, our hero does have time for kissing and sex. Just not in this movie.
