American Sniper - Clint Eastwood's latest movie (1 Viewer)

[flapgreen]

It seems to me that this guy missed the point entirely.

I don't know if he missed the point of American Sniper (I'm not sure what the point was exactly myself beyond being a biopic), but I think he does make some interesting points of his own.

The author does make some really good points in the article

He did not make one decent point. Just a bunch of sour grapes who thinks every movie about Iraq has to be about what a miserible failure Bush was. Well we had four years of non-stop of hearing that message and it was refreshing to see a different viewpoint. So a few parts of it was unrealistic, every damn thing out of Hollywood has parts which are unbelievable. This one is more believable than most. Chris Kyle was not perfect in real life, but still had some amazing accomplishments which are a source of pride to many in the military.

You got it

All I can say is this movie is spot on. This is a very honest movie and I praise Bradley Cooper for his work. People who haven't been overseas shouldn't comment on things they don't know about. That area of the world is a different planet than this place. There is a reason that enlisted personnel are usually rated in the top 1 or 2 of most stressful jobs because it is just that. They have life and death at their hands on a daily basis and lives are lost with them trying to be politically correct from people thinking they are murderous, brutal people over here. They have to account for every bullet they shoot over there and still save themselves and their brothers over there making pennies on the dollar. They are invading areas that are trapped, kids and women are spies, cars are rigged with explosives, and you don't have actual food or running water. So you are eating MREs, crapping off a center block, living in a non AC area when it's 120+ outside for a couple weeks making five digits a year with a pipe dream that you might get a college degree and be have a normal life in the good ole USA while people like Seth Rogen and Michael Moore can criticize you in AC house behind a computer making 7 digits a year and have no idea how that area of the world works. I know I'm ranting but im just fired up right now. People don't know what kind of opportunity they have here. They won the lottery being born here. On my last deployment, every port I went to was littered with Russians who literally had Eastern European women as sex slaves. Entire floors of hotels are blocked off and that where the hookers are forced to live. Even to this day I think about it and don't hear anything about it in Hollywood. It's so sad to see such pretty women kidnapped and drugged and forced into sex trafficking. The #### you see on the movies (Taken, equalizer) doesn't do justice. If these Hollywood bimbos knew anything about this area they would be talking about the real problems. It's disgusting to think about a 50 year old smelly middle eastern man with a 16 year old Russian teen, but it's even worse to see it in person and not be able to do anything about it. There I'm done.

Oh please, now we are supposed to feel bad that people got to jump through hoops to suckkle from the proverbial government teet, that they can't eat filet minoin and lobster on my dime? If you want an education and AC and a 7 figure income get a freaking job. When someone finds joining a hit squad as the best means to acheiving their desired ends, you can be assured that that person is a physcopath and I think leaves plenty of question as to whether participating in sex trafficking is above their morallity, if that was what the 'teet' demanded.

The more I think back to the sniper vs sniper schtick and the way that when down the more silly I think the movie was.

No offense man, but you're a phyco.

im not sure ....what was the point you are trying to make as it pertains to this post ?

 

[cstu]

That was sort of my point.

This kind of article never would have happened with the Hurt Locker.

Oh well.

Not sure I get the connection. Or what about Zero Dark Thirty, which essentially made the case for torture?

There is a case to be made for torture. It's wrong but sometimes you have to do what's wrong to prevent something worse.

The difference is that in ZDT the main character (Maya) was reluctant to torture while in AS Chris Kyle couldn't get enough killing.

how convincing.....

All I can say is this movie is spot on. This is a very honest movie and I praise Bradley Cooper for his work. People who haven't been overseas shouldn't comment on things they don't know about. That area of the world is a different planet than this place. There is a reason that enlisted personnel are usually rated in the top 1 or 2 of most stressful jobs because it is just that. They have life and death at their hands on a daily basis and lives are lost with them trying to be politically correct from people thinking they are murderous, brutal people over here. They have to account for every bullet they shoot over there and still save themselves and their brothers over there making pennies on the dollar. They are invading areas that are trapped, kids and women are spies, cars are rigged with explosives, and you don't have actual food or running water. So you are eating MREs, crapping off a center block, living in a non AC area when it's 120+ outside for a couple weeks making five digits a year with a pipe dream that you might get a college degree and be have a normal life in the good ole USA while people like Seth Rogen and Michael Moore can criticize you in AC house behind a computer making 7 digits a year and have no idea how that area of the world works. I know I'm ranting but im just fired up right now. People don't know what kind of opportunity they have here. They won the lottery being born here. On my last deployment, every port I went to was littered with Russians who literally had Eastern European women as sex slaves. Entire floors of hotels are blocked off and that where the hookers are forced to live. Even to this day I think about it and don't hear anything about it in Hollywood. It's so sad to see such pretty women kidnapped and drugged and forced into sex trafficking. The #### you see on the movies (Taken, equalizer) doesn't do justice. If these Hollywood bimbos knew anything about this area they would be talking about the real problems. It's disgusting to think about a 50 year old smelly middle eastern man with a 16 year old Russian teen, but it's even worse to see it in person and not be able to do anything about it. There I'm done.

Oh please, now we are supposed to feel bad that people got to jump through hoops to suckkle from the proverbial government teet, that they can't eat filet minoin and lobster on my dime? If you want an education and AC and a 7 figure income get a freaking job. When someone finds joining a hit squad as the best means to acheiving their desired ends, you can be assured that that person is a physcopath and I think leaves plenty of question as to whether participating in sex trafficking is above their morallity, if that was what the 'teet' demanded.

Obviously people should be able to comment about the notion of going to war as it affects everyone. My comment was meant to imply that people shouldn't comment about the Middle East way of life and conditions if they haven't been over there. There are many that label military personnel as "cowards, killers, murderers, puppets carrying out the industrial military complex, etc.". Keep in my that these people have family and the military is their job. It is their source of income. It is what they do to keep food on the table, just like a construction worker or teacher would. Would they have liked to restart their life all over and get a great job they can support their family with and be over here? Yes of course. But the majority of Americans aren't like that. They get married, buy a truck, have a kid early or whatever and get tied down. That's how the a lot of people are. An alternative would be for them to get out, draw unemployment/welfare/government housing instead. I'm sure taxpayers would love that as well.

If you have a problem, Don't hate the people out there, hate the policy.

It's so sad to see such pretty women kidnapped and drugged and forced into sex trafficking. The #### you see on the movies (Taken, equalizer) doesn't do justice. If these Hollywood bimbos knew anything about this area they would be talking about the real problems. It's disgusting to think about a 50 year old smelly middle eastern man with a 16 year old Russian teen, but it's even worse to see it in person and not be able to do anything about it. There I'm done.

Oh please, now we are supposed to feel bad that people got to jump through hoops to suckkle from the proverbial government teet, that they can't eat filet minoin and lobster on my dime? If you want an education and AC and a 7 figure income get a freaking job. When someone finds joining a hit squad as the best means to acheiving their desired ends, you can be assured that that person is a physcopath and I think leaves plenty of question as to whether participating in sex trafficking is above their morallity, if that was what the 'teet' demanded.

jesus dude.

Joetrow is the same type of person who spit on our vets returning from Viet Nam.

What does a sniper feel when he shoots a terrorist?........ Recoil

The weird part of this movie experience was when the film was over there was not a sound in the theater. Everyone slowly and quietly got up and left the theater. I did not hear one peep out of a soul until after everyone walked through the lobby and were outside. A very well done and very good movie.

BTW....Anyone who thinks serving in the military in a combat zone for four tours is tyring 'to suckkle from the proverbial government teet' needs to head out to the closest biker bar and spout their mouth off. ETA: I will buy the first few rounds of drinks.

Saw it last night. Clint has now made a similar movie three times - the "war sucks" movie.

Flags of our Fathers (war sucks - it uses what it needs and then discards it when it's over)

Letters from Iwo Jima (war sucks - even for the enemy)

American Sniper (war sucks - even if you're good at it)

How anyone can think this is pro-war propaganda is beyond me. It pretty clearly shows that for all his bravado, Kyle was a broken man because of what he did and what happened. I also think it clearly shows he had a conscience about his role, but one that had to be reconciled with his sense of duty to his fellow soldiers and family.

And people made a big deal about the fake baby? Get a life.

Real baby actors bring so much to the role. It is kind of a shame the academy does not recognize their brilliance with an Oscar category for Best Male Infant and Best Female Infant.

To understand what Clint Eastwood really thinks, you have to watch this movie: http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=450760

That was sort of my point.

This kind of article never would have happened with the Hurt Locker.

Oh well.

Not sure I get the connection. Or what about Zero Dark Thirty, which essentially made the case for torture?

Zero Dark 30 was blasted all over Twitter for being propaganda and for flat out lying.

By the left. Hurt Locker was the same director. I guess I still don't get his point.

I don't really care about the movie or know exactly what anyone's point is. I was just saying that ZD30 got criticized (and probably for better reasons). I likely missed a lot of your conversation so who knows.

Clint made Flags of Our Fathers and Letter from Iwo Jima because not only does war suck, there is always more than one side to each story. We bombed Iraq to tell Al Qaeda to "get off our lawn" but there are reasons why people join gangs like ISIS.

Same happened after our show. If there was applause, what would you be applauding? Since the last pictures on the screen were that of Kyle's hearse. Those few minutes left me with a sense of pride. A sense that regardless of person in the hearse, we support the sacrifice made by our troops. Cheering didn't seem appropriate for that moment.

I'm not surprized to see a Chris Kyle bot advocate violence over a philosphical disagreement... And I await your briliant objective deduction as to who can and cannot take money from my pocket and be considered a 'teet sucker'.

All I can say is this movie is spot on. This is a very honest movie and I praise Bradley Cooper for his work. People who haven't been overseas shouldn't comment on things they don't know about. That area of the world is a different planet than this place. There is a reason that enlisted personnel are usually rated in the top 1 or 2 of most stressful jobs because it is just that. They have life and death at their hands on a daily basis and lives are lost with them trying to be politically correct from people thinking they are murderous, brutal people over here. They have to account for every bullet they shoot over there and still save themselves and their brothers over there making pennies on the dollar. They are invading areas that are trapped, kids and women are spies, cars are rigged with explosives, and you don't have actual food or running water. So you are eating MREs, crapping off a center block, living in a non AC area when it's 120+ outside for a couple weeks making five digits a year with a pipe dream that you might get a college degree and be have a normal life in the good ole USA while people like Seth Rogen and Michael Moore can criticize you in AC house behind a computer making 7 digits a year and have no idea how that area of the world works. I know I'm ranting but im just fired up right now. People don't know what kind of opportunity they have here. They won the lottery being born here.

.......................are you .........insane?

That is beside the point. The question is, am I wrong?

im not sure ....what was the point you are trying to make as it pertains to this post ?

That this notion that only people who have been there can comment on the morality of the situtations war-time soldiers face is utter BS. If we leave the discussion up to the people who have found it okay to invade a foriegn country on the whimsicle of a questionable man, we can be assured where the narritive will go.

Obviously people should be able to comment about the notion of going to war as it affects everyone. My comment was meant to imply that people shouldn't comment about the Middle East way of life and conditions if they haven't been over there. There are many that label military personnel as "cowards, killers, murderers, puppets carrying out the industrial military complex, etc.". Keep in my that these people have family and the military is their job. It is their source of income. It is what they do to keep food on the table, just like a construction worker or teacher would. Would they have liked to restart their life all over and get a great job they can support their family with and be over here? Yes of course. But the majority of Americans aren't like that. They get married, buy a truck, have a kid early or whatever and get tied down. That's how the a lot of people are. An alternative would be for them to get out, draw unemployment/welfare/government housing instead. I'm sure taxpayers would love that as well.

If you have a problem, Don't hate the people out there, hate the policy.

This is not a job though, it is a continuation of the new-deal, a glorified CCC camp. Except it is worse, they operate in the name of destruction whereas the new-deal CCC was intended to operate with the function of progressing America's infrastructure. And I am no new-dealer, but that was at a time when unemployment was around 30%, and right now we have in the neighborhood of 5%. And further, someone who collects welfare, someone who does absolutely nothing, is more productive than an individual who destroys production. And I totaly agree with you on the people vs policy, but the information is out there, at what point do we label a spade a spade,, at what point did German officers and soldiers deserve some blame for carrying out bad policy?
