OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately

[dogscoff]

Most people that go to war DON'T get killed, or wounded, or anything.

Well, that depends on the war, and what side you're on. Modern warfare, you might be right, but since we're talking about films you have to include any war a film could be made about... I don't have any figures but I bet there are plenty of armies that have gone to war and suffered >50% casualties. I know that losses were horrendously high in WWI for instance. i believe some of the British imperial campaigns were pretty grisly too (for the unfortunate conquerees )

I'm an anselm(? English rank ? - Fänrik) in the Swedish army (reserves).

I think the English rank you're looking for is ensign - used by American Navy & Marines for lowest officer rank...

Ok. Is that lowest officer or underofficer(?) Fänrik is here the lowest officer rank, Then beneath it you have the under-officers(? English word??) Sergeant, furir, korpral

------------
Ok, did a google search and found that it was the same: Ensign - Fänrik. Thanx.

(Edit spell and movies + correction, se post above.)

Well, I was in a medical unit, but my actual job was as a Mental health Clinic Technician. What that entailed was mostly giving out phsych tests and interviewing people. Not too glamorous, and one reason why I decided to get out. I couldn't transfer to another profession, and I didn't really like my job. But it was interesting. I know much more about psychology now than I did before I joined the Air Force.

Altough.. it's not as romantic as Amelie it's funnier though.

finally got around to seeing shanghai knights. very funny and several jokes in reference to other movies or series. i enjoyed the fight scene in the market, set to singing in the rain. jackie chan starting to look old.

I just saw the movie, "Cradle 2 the Grave". It was OK, just another typical Jet Li movie: a few good kung fu fights, some random action scenes, and a story that doesn't make complete sense. It didn't seem like a sequel even though there's a 2 in the title. Shanghai Knights was a lot better. In general, I like Jackie Chan's movies more than Jet Li's. The comedy in Jackie Chan's movies make them a lot more entertaining, even though Jet Li's kung fu seems to be better. Jackie Chan is getting old and his fight scenes aren't as intense as they used to be.
