I knew it! Man, this is a great movie. And liberals hate, hate, HATE it. Does this get any better? :)
My favorite exchange in the movie comes when the Wolverines meet up with a downed U.S. fighter pilot who gives them the heads-up on how the war's been going. He tells them the Europeans are taking a pass (that freakin' figures), then:
JED: Well, who IS on our side?
PILOT: Six hundred million screamin' Chinamen.
MATT: I thought there were a BILLION screamin' Chinamen.
PILOT (grimly): There WERE.

What is the explanation for having Red China on the side of the US? (Now you've got me wanting to see the movie... I haven't seen it since it was on TV in the 80's and can't remember much of it.)
JED: Well, who IS on our side?
PILOT: Six hundred million screamin' Chinamen.
MATT: I thought there were a BILLION screamin' Chinamen.
PILOT (grimly): There WERE.
Actually, the Colonel (Powers Boothe) throws some whiskey into the campfire, causing it to flare up into a fireball. He's referring to the Soviets nuking the Chinese. That's how a billion Chinamen became 800 million.

It's a GREAT movie. I've been it dozens of times. I can almost recite every line.
WOLVERINES !!!!!
Also, Back to the Future is another favorite
