There was so much more to him than just “Full Metal Jacket”.
Yeah. He also played Mr. Martin in the remake of Willard. Ernest Borgnine played the role in the original.
My favorite line of the remake is when Crispin Glover, playing Willard, goes into Martin's office and tells Martin that his rats will do whatever he tells them.
In typical Ermey fashion, Martin replies, "Then tell them to get the F*** out of my office!"
