A Few Good Men wasn’t bad...but I saw that before I was aware that he was involved.But something tells me that I’ll die never having seen “Shock And Awe”.

Make a movie for people to feel guilty?
Expect people to pay to see it?

Good luck with that business concept.

So... what do they claim was the real reason for the Iraq war? The article doesn’t say. I guess the journalist writing it lost interest too.

Propaganda is not meant to make money, it is meant to indocrtinate, so we will probably see articles in the leghumping media about how wonderful it is. No need to see it.

Seriously folks this was a film that was only playing in 100 theaters and had zero marketing... it was always a pet project...

Honestly how many here ever heard of it before this article?

The Iraq war? George W Bush? Wasn’t that back in the 20th century, or something?

If a propaganda film falls in the forest and nobody hears it, is it still a propaganda film?

The flights - 56 in total, Mr. Sada said - attracted little notice because they were thought to be civilian flights providing relief from Iraq to Syria, which had suffered a flood after a dam collapse in June of 2002.

"Saddam realized, this time, the Americans are coming," Mr. Sada said. "They handed over the weapons of mass destruction to the Syrians."

I haven’t even heard of that movie.

Although I will say, This Is Spinal Tap is a GREAT Rob Reiner movie.
Plenty of laughs every time a see it.

You admitted to seeing it.

That’s so sad. I’m sorry that you didn’t have better things to do, like watch paint dry.

I frequently make predictions when seeing a title of a thread.

For this one predicted I would find the word "meathead" by post #2.

You did not disappoint.
