The movie looks pretty interesting to me. The song on the trailer is perfect even though I don't care for Kanye [ November 05, 2005, 12:20 AM: Message edited by: aslowdodge ]

What a country we live in, where a black public figure (cause I would hardly call him an artist) can say racist comments about our countries President, on national TV, and during one of our countries most devastating storms, and get one of his “songs” to be played on a movie that has commercials all over the USA, and I’m sure a lot of foreign countries as well. Just imagine if Mike Myers, or any other white American, had said a racist comment to the same effect as Kanye………

Mike Myers should have said: "The hurricanes dont care about black people"
Kanye is a dipshit

I'm in NO WAY defending kanye, hell they dont even play his song until the end, but that movie was out of post production about 4-5 months ago... they would have lost alot of money delaying it.
with that said... Kanye sucks... his remarks were WAY out of line.

Yeah i'm sure that song was picked way before those comments were made.
That said, what did you think of the movie?

I liked it, I'll buy it when it comes out on dvd. I would have taken the shot Its also cool to see Jamie Foxx really coming into his own as a serious dramatic actor. [ November 05, 2005, 09:48 AM: Message edited by: 94gt ]

I would have to agree with that Jamie Foxx is kickin' some ass.

You know, come to think of it... after the movie, either there was a small group of unshaven/long haired marines next to us or there was a small group of dorks next to us

Wow im pretty dissapointed it was a cool movie, but where is the action. This movie lacked the gun shooting/killing action that the commercials show. I read a movie review that said this is the new full metal jacket and I seriously wondered if they even watched the movie.

Saw it opening night and even though the movie was pretty good it is NOTHING like they try to make it look in the previews.
As for being the new full metal jacket!? HAHAHAH maybe for about 10 min. Just because they recite "this is my rifle" a couple time doesn't mean this is the new full metal jacket. CMONE!
And as for Fox? Short part = good acting for that clown. HAHAHAHAHAH. He did good I guess. You can't just throw him into that kind of character so leaving his roll being big yet the acting small made for a good introduction for him playing more serious rolls.
Movie over-all = 7 out of 10 for me.
PS> TAKE THE SHOT NEXT TIME YOU PUSSY!

I saw it. Brought back a lot of own memories. Movie was a lot different that I thought it would be. Hated the book but movie was not bad.

Saw it Saturday and it brought back memories of my time in Iraq and the endless games we played and the boredom that we had at times. Good movie overall with a bit of exageration.
