"the movie is something of a cult film among right-wing US extremists

WTF??? They can't just write that it's a good movie? The media won't even describe Michael Moore's movies like that

I have the DVD

Me, too.

We should start a top ten right-wing extremist DVD list, or, "You know you're a right-wing extremist if you own..." list.

If I owned the rights to the DVD, I would be getting together a true "cult" feeding classic. Some real anti commie extras. (like the reds really did fear the fact of private individual gun rights ownership)

This would be a holiday special edition money maker.

Directed by John Milius, who co-wrote Francis Ford Coppola's "Apocalypse Now," the movie is something of a cult film among right-wing US extremists

Gee, they make that sound like it's bad or something.

Here's CNN's review of Red Dawn. On any other day it would require a barf alert but now you can laugh and laugh and laugh.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

"Next Capture...

Un-hunh. Then, we'd have the "Free the Whales" crowd make a resurgence...

Of course, the line I always remember from that movie:

"It's 12:01 America. Another day closer to victory."

This morning when FNC mentioned "Red Dawn", I immediately thought of the movie and my second thought was no way because it surely didn't bode well for our side. In the movie the kids were doomed to lose in the end and the invading troops were the bad guys. Perhaps Sheen offered to name the mission. I didn't remember Jennifer Grey was in it but assumed she and cousin (!) Patrick met in "Dirty Dancing".

the "Wolverines," after the bear-like creature known for its ferocity.

Actually while bear like is a good description they are essentially giant weasels. They are fearsome and have been known to fight bears for their kills. They are quite solitary. Here's a nice pic:

you never know how funny FR is until you have abdominal surgery and the belly laughs have you doubled over in pain and guffaws. I just got out of the hospital and I've been trying to read these capture threads (saw the big news from my hospital bed this morning) and I cannot get through a dozen posts without someone cracking me up. I cannot read anymore. You guys are the best.
