That's why you came to me, isn't it Harry? Because you knew I could do those things that you weren't capable of doing. Well, it worked. And you'll get what you wanted: a war between the punks and the lucky. And if your conscience is bothering you, you should soothe it with the knowledge that you may have just saved the entire LAPD, and all it cost was the life of one innocent little random black child because this is the 70s and social issues are going into our movies dammit, one criminal… and the self-respect of one officer. I don't know about you, but I'd call that a bargain."
>Scorpion comes across as a cartoon character who somehow found his way out of a TV, but Harry's a pussy for not airhole-ing him there and then.
The sequel is really annoying where people who would end up being his antagonist and we get some preachy "due process is important and shit" message which runs counter to the whole franchise of "going by the book is just a way for villains to get off scottfree" movies
Especially in that one where he lets the rape victim track down and murder all of her assailants just because he wants a bit of pussy or some shit. Completely flying in the face of all that self righteous bullshit he said in the second movie.
>He seemed like a real jerk
Anon >kills people for fun
Yeah that normally counts as being a bit more than being a jerk. Scorpio is what a normal plebbitor would have been like in the 70s.
He was only 5’9”
Harry didn’t care about his rights to an attorney
textbook incel
He was spying for the cardassians

>LAPD
oh you were sooo close...
Frick, he's from San Fran isn't he
Inspector Callahan is SFPD
he was just a serial killer who wasn't particularly good at hiding his crimes
He just wanted a plain, simple life.
What about the rights of that little girl ?
honestly would have been better off just killing him here
Harry didn't anticipate the justice system being completely moronic, he still had some faith in the system at that point.

The second film was a reaction to morons calling the first one fascist.

Kino
Dirty Harry =‘Cinemaphile
Scorpio = Reddit
Scorpio is Cinemaphile's embodiment.
>upvoted
looks like the "therr taking err jerbs!!" dude from Rope
Is this really a plot point in Rings of Power? Elves taking human jobs? Or is it just some dumb edit?
Real
It's one of the richest men in the world using Tolkien's legacy to try and tell you that only racist morons believe in unionizing.
Scorpio is underrated as far a cinema villain goes. He was such a bizarre, unhinged character that he can't help, but get lodged in your mind.
Scorpio should've crashed that school bus.
>Pays a homie to get beaten up and blames it on Harry
Best movie villain of all time.
>JESUS WEPT
Yooooo I never noticed Scorpio is the father from Hellraiser
>threatens to kill people at random in a giant city
>still gets caught after 2 murders
Why didn't the DA charge Scorpio with assault and attempted murder of a police officer when he tried to kill Harry during the dropoff?
Because in the film the system is rigged.
Garak was right they should have nuked them
This. He just wanted a dispassionate historical perspective.
ERMAGERRRD!
He was a Vietnam vet with PTSD
When this movie was released, the actor who played Scorpio had to change his phone number and address because people were threatening to kill him.
He was MK ULTRA'd by the Obsidian Order.
