This is the trailer for the eagerly awaited Mel Gibson epic. Didn't see it posted before. The book is excellent -- but will the film be worthy?

...The real kicker was when I first arrived at our IA DRANG Alumni Weekend Conference over 2,200 Miles from Home.
...As I rounded the corner outside our Conference Hotel's Entrance and started to talk to some fellow IA DRANG Vets... ...out comes ..JOE GALLOWAY.. yelling out...
.."Why, it's ..ALOHA RONNIE"..
..."I want you to go right upstairs to the Hotel Restaurant and say Hello to the General and Mrs. MOORE."

Some months ago, trying to open up space on this computer, I had stupidly deleted the last download, thinking I wouldn't need it with all the other media players stashed here and there on this second-hand computer, so the QuickTime site recognized this PC as one that had the software but needed an upgrade ...

Mel won me over with Braveheart. Having seen him in Hamlet,Mad Max,and the Lethal Weapon movies...I knew he had more in him than he was giving himself credit for. Braveheart has become one of my favorite movies of all time.Ransom is awesome too. How he can share the screen with such a traitor like Glover is beyond me.
To: JoeEveryman
I just spent the last 40 minutes nudging the slider bar along the bottom of the trailer, alternating that with tapping the forward arrow, to get the whole trailer to download. Is that normal? It wouldn't download on its own w/o the nudging.
I finally saw the whole trailer. Looks like it's going to be PTSD time for a lot of Viet Nam vets, but this story needs to be told. I hope they stay true to the actual events.
Did anyone else have difficulty following the first part of the book, with so many characters thrown in amidst so many details, up front?

Hey, I liked that movie.
To: ALOHA RONNIE
nevermind--I found it myself.

I wonder how Mel could tolerate working on all those Lethal Weapons movies with that HYPOCRITE Danny Glover? Is he? Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for your post.
