For example, there's one scene where the guys strip down and have simulated gay sex in full view of their officer while a reporter is filming them. It's stuff like this that is over the top.

Nothing says good military movie like a simulated gay sex scene. (/sarcasm)

Hollywoods rendition of all wars gets me hot....real wars,however,are a turnoff.My draft lottery # in '69 was 240...i celebrated,wine and crappy mexi gutter rope.I soon realized war was best seen thru a looking glass or on a screen.My brother enlisted in the army 8 months prior and was in a place known as Bon Son.he wrote me and alerted my chicken butt that war suked the big wieney of life,I agree....in any format.

Interesting....

The star of "Jarhead" happens to be the star of Brokeback Mountain....A story about a couple of gay coyboys. I smell an agenda.

The gay cowboy story is up on Drudge. Apparently it is said to be Oscar material. That says it all for me.
