Watched "Letters from Iwo Jima" the other day, enjoyed the hell out of it.
It's like being on the other side of the movie, "Flags of our Fathers".
The whole movie is in Japanese, from the Japs perspective inside the caves. It humanizes the enemy we all grew up to hate from the history books. I ain't sympathizing you fags, just saying.
It was very enjoyable, long and you gotta read the whole thing, so let's call it a short book with video.

"Framom främsta linjen/ Etulinjan edessä"
In this movie you get to follow Fänrik (First leutnant) Harry Järv that leads a successful company of the Swedish speaking regiment IR61 at the strongpoint Svir during the continuation war.
You get to follow the 1:st Lt and his recon patrols as they penetrate deep behind the Russian lines to complete their mission.
Harry Järv himself are narrator of the factual parts during the movie.

Went to see Live free or Die Hard. I really enjoyed it..
I haven't rented a lot of movies lately, but I did see Shooter again on video.
I also took my nephew to see Ratatouille. We liked it a lot, although it was a little slow in the middle. But the end made up for it. :D

Transformers...
AMAZING, especially if you were a fan of watching it as the original cartoon series in the early 80s. Absolutely amazing special effects. They even use the original transforming sound effects and of course the original Optimus Prime voice.
They use a lot of current military technology in the film as well. Blackhawks, Spectre Gunships, F-22 Raptor, etc.

Brother, I am no "Sniper"... so I don't have the extensive knowledge base to sharpshoot a shooter move... but, from what I DO know about long range shooting... I had serious issues with the physics in the movie.Dafid Ranger wrote:So I went back a few pages, and I see that you Fuckers liked "The Shooter".......anyone think it was worth buying?
Other than that, yes... it is worth having. I personally, did the NetFlix / RipIt4Me thing...
It is an entertaining movie... Marky Mark does ok with what he has. I just don't care for his personal politics... but, he does pull off a good role. The opening sequence is a hoot...

The scorpion scene was outstanding. A view over Spectre as it lights this one robo-bitch up was one of the coolest fight scenes.

If you're in a fair fight, you didn't plan it properly.
