Has anyone seen Jarhead yet? It's a pretty good flick, from the same guy who did American Beauty. It shows the what the troops had to go through in Operation Desert Storm. The movie kinda leans towards the idea that Desert Storm's main cause was for oil..... But other than a slight agenda they push it was a great flick. Way better than 3 Kings.

Yeah, the whole movie, to me, was about how much it sucks being a marine, even when you don't have to fight. So its like, being a marine is either "shitty" or "fucking shitty".

Did anyone like this more than American Beauty? Personally, American Beauty is a movie I've seen probly at least 20 times. I don't think Jarhead will have that kind of staying power at all.

But then again I really hate war movies. The only reason I saw this one was because of the director.

No such thing as a good war movie? Platoon, Apocalypse Now, Full Metal Jacket, just to name a few, are some of the best movies ever made, and they're war movies. And all of them are very much anti-war, so who's the dumbass now?

Ammie, wow how have you been. I haven't posted here in awhile. Everything is good.. sorta. I recently broke up with this girl who I was with for 4 months. We were good friends, like best friends for like 2 years previous, now she doesn't even want to be my friend. I am just hurt by that, but I respect her decision. Other than that, I am getting my Associates degree in Business Admin soon, started my second job. Turned 21 today! Planned to get shit faced on Saturday, and Ya. Life is good for me right now I guess. Work, school, social life, and trying to get my rent and bills paid on time is all. What about yourself?

War will never end, it is human nature. It may be dumb and for the wrong reasons at times, but that has never stopped it nor will it in the future. Peace is an illusion for those who already have everything that they want.....

Im sorry to hear about you and your friend. Its hard when friends try and have a relationship and it dont work out. its almost impossible to go back to where you were before, but it can happen. Just wait it out and see if ya'll are ment to stay friends she'll come around.

I have been so busy School,work,kids and tryin to find an apartment big enuff for us all :confused: argh! up until last week I hadnt been on here in months. I just dont have the time. Its kinda nice to get back on once in awhile but I will never understand how I had so much time to sit and play on here so much. well hope to see ya around good luck with things :)

jarhead is a marketing movie made to capitalize on the war in iraq and saw 2 was overrated.

dont cry bloke, its just my opinion. i can say things like that cuz i have seen madddddddddddd movies, im not one of these trendy filmgoers. saw II was slow and it dragged out and was kinda predictable. another thing, you had a 7th heaven star in it who couldnt act for shit and they showed way too much of her....crystal clear epilepsy
