Or telling the kid he was "going to make a great Marine." Talk about "predictive programming." I still want to know if they did the pro-military thing to get access to gear because some of the gear didn't look all that good meaning they may not have gotten it. That means I'll rent the Bluray to get that info. If you portray the military in any negative light they won't provide support for a film. This was like they used a WWII John Wayne script and rewrote it. A couple years ago when those pro-war Hollywood films came out they learned the public wasn't interested in them.
