"The left may be anti-military, but such movies tend to do poorly, which is why we see more pro-military films."

I recall after the war in Iraq started Hollywood put out a bunch of anti-military, anti-American war flicks (ie. Rendition) and they all bombed. I remember at the time saying that if someone would just make a classic, Chuck Norris type war flick set in the middle east they would make a ton of money. The movie "Sole Survivor" finally proved me right.

Opening weekend

Rambo 4, $18,203,876

Rendition, $4,060,012

Lions for Lambs, $6,702,434

Syriana, $11,737,143

The unapologetic kick ass Rambo movie beats the star power of the series of anti-Bush, anti-American films.
