Super Sweet Movie Discussion Thread

Initial reviews say it does not suck...but...the butthurt is strong in this one....

Megan Leavey Is A Good Iraq War Film. But Is It 'Stolen Valor'?

I hope Corporal Leavey got 'paid' because it seems like everyone she knew in the Corps is channeling their inner Blue Falcon.
- The dog wasn't that vicious
- She was never really in that much danger
- This would have never really happened
- And of course..."STOLEN VALOR!"
- Etc...etc...etc...

Or maybe Corporal Leavey is channeling her inner Robert O'Neill and riding this pony for every bit of pub she can get?

Either way, the folks interviewed in the T&P come across as bitter and nit-picky for just a Hollywood movie. The comments are worth reading, just for the fact that so many people claim they knew her, supervised her, etc.


There have been so many bullshit anti-military films produced over the past 40 years, I'm happy when one comes out that treats military people with a little respect...and I'm even willing to forgive some Hollywood contrivances of the original story. It's probably harder for those that served with the principle to accept dramatizations and compilations of actual events. I know it's hard for @racing_kitty and others to accept the bullshit scenes in Hurt Locker...but goddam, when I think of fucking Sean Penn and Michael J. Fucking Fox in Casualties of War ...Just be glad they're not showing GWOT vets as drug-addled rapists and baby-killers.

Dunkirk. Holy shit. Very different stylistically; it wasn't very long and had very little dialogue - we don't even know the names of most of the characters. However, this was absolutely stunning visually with an amazing score; the best I've seen in a long time. The aerial scenes are simply fantastic. Go see this film in the theater. I saw the "standard" version but this is one film that's probably worth the IMAX upsell.

Gather round for the bukkake of hate. Some one decided it might be a good idea to make a film about some have-beens in a elevator, set during the 9/11 attacks on the WTC and release it three days before the anniversary, on September 8.

My, my, my...


Whoopi must have lost her mind...

We both know that movie had to happen. It's been in the mail for quite some time.
