All:
The best movies to question military thinking would be:
1. M.A.S.H.
2. Catch 22
3. The Caine Mutiny
4. Dr. Strangelove (my favorite)
5. Paths of Glory. This depicted French military incopetance at it's best. No suprise there.
It will be interesting to see of Goats compairs to the above listed classics.
P.S.: I forgot to mention Aliens. This depicicts a typical infantry company with the normel cast of misfits. Whoever wrote the script for this had to be in an infantry regiment. He had it down pat.
The junk coming out at the movies continues to prove there is a shortage of writers. Good writers that is.
Communist in Hollywood trying to make the military look bad, and of course stupid people accept anything out of Commywood, (Fainting Goats) look them up. Buy yourself one, torment him just like these scumbag actors. Where's PETA on all of this.
The problem is that most media people can't tell the difference between fact and fantacy.
Way back when ... "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" came out and one short of sense reporter asked someone coming out of the theater if the movie "Did the movie make you believe in UFOs." Genius.
Ok, they interviewed Stubblebine. MG Stubblebine claims that he worked with Special Forces, training them to move things with his mind. That's pure BS and an invention from Stubblebine's active imagination. I know first hand that this did not happen. That being said; the movie looks like it might be fun! We need a good military comedy.
Kind of like when the US down South on a remote island had a program during WWI to train Police Dogs to attack and kill Japanese by being able to smell them. And of course to "facilitate" this wonderful piece of common sense they used Live American soldiers of Japanese descent as Bait! Only recently "De-classified". Or injecting Syphallis into prisoners or using LSD as a "Truth" serum, or using Navy personnel in Bimini when the first Atomic test was done to see what the effects of the radiation would be on them and God only knows what else. It's your government and you just believe, and believe that they're all Benevolant Omnipotents. The enemy is us!
Sorry, I meant WWII, not WWI regarding the police dogs. At least I can admit it when I'm actually wrong. It's been so long that its happened.
