Annihilator
|
smokingsides
played a woman who gets replaced by a robot duplicate (who later gets 'annihilated'). The weird thing is, she smokes in a scene when she's a robot! The camera gave a really good close up of her taking a drag, then backed away to show her exhaling, leaning up against the kitchen sink, holding her cigarette up near her head. She looked pretty good, too! But what the hell was a robot doing smoking? |

Broken Angel
|
smokingsides
Jamie (Erika) punishes her mother (Susan) because she smokes (only a couple of drags are shown in the first minutes of this movie). Only five minutes later Jamie shares a joint with her friends. She even double-pumps on the joint and inhales (exhale has been edited). Later it will be discovered that she's a member of L.A.'s toughest street gang. Her mother is shocked and quits smoking soon |
Capone
|

Dead Reckoning
