    Does Vance not know Trump's hiistory of bravery? No one does, because there's none to know. Why not tell your tale of your military career, served four years in the Marine Core as a public affairs officer, 6 months in Iraq but never saw combat. I'm sure they'll rush to make a movie of a real warrior

    There was a real Stars and Stripes reporter who inspired "Full Metal Jacket." The recent death of Kevyn Major Howard, the actor who portrayed Rafterman in the 1987 movie, has rekindled memories of the Marine who inspired the character’s name. The story of Eric "Rafterman" Grimm: bit.ly/4hXpMRp

    It is impossible to make a movie that makes valid and incisive criticisms of the Marine Corps that Marines won't perceive as a pro-Marine classic. A Few Good Men is only one. Full Metal Jacket, Jarhead, etc. I think the oldest one might be The Great Santini.

    Keep saying the Marine and “history buff” didn’t recognize his tattoo in every World War Two movie for 17 years, if it makes you feel better. It makes you look like a gullible fool and a Nazi apologist, but hey… if that doesn’t bother you, what could? It’s literally the point of this joke.

    Coming on the heels of all the mentions of The Great Santini because of Duvall's death, A Few Good Men is another classic example of a film that makes valid and incisive criticisms of the Marine Corps that Marines perceive as a pro-Marine classic and that made us look so cool we recruited off of it.

    THE MARINE is a low-level fascination of mine. Cena's movie was bad, Ted Jr's wasn't any better, first Miz is awful, and then they made bold move to lean on the action, feature WWE people as it was ONLY audience that cared, and it got better. plus Becky Lynch was awful as an Oregon Irish mob boss

I also had to give credit to the crew of the second film of making the Marine Life Institute believable as it does remind me of Ripley's.

    The Marine Corps is like the marquis case. Filmmakers have made multiple films that make incisive and accurate criticisms of our culture, every time Marines have said "This guy gets us, all we would add to this is a QED," and then we've recruited off the film for like a decade.
