I haven't seen 'Blackhawk Down' yet but I did plunk down $7 for 'We Were Soldiers' last month... what a great movie! It's on my DVD collection list. Well done, Mel Gibson.
Ben Aff-bleck is keeping me away for TSOAF.

You definitely need to see "Black Hawk Down." Fabulous book, very well done movie. Very respectful to the D-boys and Rangers who were in that firefight (not to mention the fact that it doesn't pull any punches in showing how brutal and animalistic the Somalis are). I read that and "We Were Soldiers Once...And Young" last summer to compare them to their respective films. Both did an outstanding job. Ben Affleck isn't fit to wash these men's urinals.
