      MarkG, no you can't have less of it. It sexually satisfies many fat home grown keyboard warriors dreaming of wearing green camoflague pants some day.

      When you'd ask is the army crap necessary for every single movie that it has been necessary for, you get the "YES IT WAS NECESSARY!!2"

      When you ask why, it's "WELL IT'S A MOVIE MADE IN HERE, IF YOU DON*T LIKE IT, MAKE YOU ROWN MOVEIS!2". Then the rant and rave and go on about how supposedly the world listen to US top 10 and doesn't have their own music, eat pizza and talk english.

      Perhaps you'd say well, we do have our own movies, and no one else sticks the army into every single shot possible, so that's why it just seems a bit weird, that's all. But you just showed weakness in front of the eyes of a real warrior, "IF IT WASN'T FOR ME PERSONALLY, YOU'D be speaking russian now, OR GERMAN!". And then they go eat more donuts. It is absolutely essential, that keyboard warriors have never actually done anything remotely similar what they always are shouting about.

      For example joining the army. They're very proud of the army, they got all kinds of little toys about it, games and they masturbate often about it, but somehow they never get to joining it. Bad knee, old sports injury, mom wouldn't take it, got better things to do, stuff like that. So how do you support it? By being an idiot on the internet and getting fat.

      Ok. I guess we need movies with army in them.

        that's single scene vs 80% of the movie having some random army dude speaking in code in order to appear cool...

          First, it would be silly for the army to not appear in a movie about an alien invasion.

                Then you need to watch this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indepen...Day_%28film%29
                Totally stupid, has far more Hollywood stereotypes than most other Hollywood movies but that makes it fun

                Is it me or were the tons of US Army stuff really irrelevant and unnecessary?
                You can try some Japan versions of Transformers if you don't like to see US Army so much http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl...as=1&notinml=0

                    Discuss the post, not the poster. Personal atacks like that again will get you banned. There's no need.

                          What was its rating versus Transformers? Exactly.

                          Someone once described Transformers as one lousy, two-hour Army recruitment ad.
                          Air Force ad.

                            Why is that an issue? Just because we're accustomed to pencilnecked politicians being SoD, that doesn't mean there can't be a fictional one with a military background like Nam etc. How would that be farfetched?

                                Dude. There's an alien invasion going on. This isn't the 80's where a battle can go on for over a day without a peep from the military as in the animated movie. Can you think of one logical reason why the military wouldn't respond to the threat?
