OVER THERE! Now At the Game Depot

[Starmyth]

Maybe a movie of Bush joining the National Guard to avoid war would be appropriate.

I can't imagine why he would say such a thing, Les. Its really very good, especially for one deeply interested in the happenings in Iraq from our point of view.

I've often found that when the critics hate it, I love it. Red Dawn is a case in point. I've read that it was the worst movie ever made. I think its great.

To each his own, I suppose.

Wouldn't be much fighting in that one, Starmyth, except George arguing with Laura over where she hid the bourbon!

The scenario is done...tested and ready. It can be won. I just achieved a decisive victory but had to play it 8 times to do it. Picture of final score attached.

Scneario can be found here.

Its a challenge! Keep your men alive and take the objectives! Out!

Since its on the Fox propaganda network, I've been avoiding it. Usually that helps me from having to erase the crud out of my mind that gets in there if I watch their stuff.

Could someone describe the point for the poor non-US, non-cabled among us?

FOX propaganda or not, a movie can still be fine to look at, provided you keep your mind alert and don't sit and let the unwanted garbage pour in... Whatever the unwanted content actually is!

Actually I was surprised at the candor and the realism of the presentation. It is not a glossed over presentation of the war, George Bush style.

And from what I see, it is going to be even more realistic in terms of the things that happen in war that we prefer not to think about.

Fox or not, in my opinion, it was great. That is my opinion. Everyone is certainly entitled to his own. I do think, however, prejudgement may be premature in this case.

Watch it, then critique it.

Yeah, that Hadji whose pelvis and legs continued walking after having the torso blown off by a 40mm... what realism!

I'm talking turkey moment of the year here...

What was this supposed to mean?
