They already released a trailer?
Wow, it feels like I just heard the news about pre-production yesterday.
Man this looks like [I]shit[/I]. Way to make it tacticool.
i don't have high hopes considering how terrible the hurt locker was
and i'm sure everyone will love this anyway too
'the greatest manhunt in history' ?
Wow, that's a little far, isnt it?

The Hurt Locker was amazing.
Let's all gather around the campfire once more kids, we're telling the story of Bin Laden yet again. Every story needs these elements: a set of defined good guys and bad guys. Now all we need is a neat structure with a beginning, middle and end. We were all on board for the first act of the story (9/11 attacks) and the second act (the military goes in and deposes the Taliban), but then the third act (the troops come home to victory parades and everything is back to normal) never came. We kind of forgot about that.
Look at the last few wars again -- we can't get past the idea that terrorism will end if we just blow the shit out of the bad guys. Why? Because that's the way it works in the movies. In Star Wars, when the Emperor died, all evil died with him. The same with Sauron, and Voldemort. If we kill/imprison all the drug kingpins, the drugs will go away. Right? Guys?
So as a society, our entire process for figuring out and solving problems involves clumsily trying to make a story out of them. When we follow a complicated subject like politics, we need that distinct hero and villain, so we'll ignore the shortcomings of our guy and amplify the shittiness of their guy, to make them fit that mold. When we hear about a war, it's almost impossible to think of it in terms of multiple factions all acting in self-interest -- we need one side we can root for, usually under the guise of the underdog young rebels overthrowing the evil old empire (i.e., the Arab Spring).
That's why, to this day, we're still trying to figure out who "caused" the economic collapse, as if we'll find a cabal of a dozen shady bankers in a room who made off with all our money, rather than a flawed system that millions of investors and consumers drove into the ditch because of a steadfast refusal to think five minutes into the future.
tactical war shooter guy the movie
This looks disgustingly patriotic.
And it probably will be a boring film.
Looks like it could be like a call of duty the movie with about five times more "MURRICA, FUCK YEAH"
Why do people hate The Hurt Locker? It didn't deserve best picture but it was still OK.
[QUOTE=Hazardous Melon;37122416]The Hurt Locker was amazing.[/QUOTE]
No, it was a really mediocre film. It was a jumbled mess of a film, and definitely didn't deserve best picture.
Did they legitimately play the exact same sound bite twice in the same trailer? Good grief.
They even blacked out the page number.
looks like "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: the Movie"

You sir, are a modern day philosopher.
Until i read the above post and realized that all of your material was shamelessly stolen.
How dare you.
It's funny because Bin Laden is still alive and they didn't kill him
[QUOTE=Hazardous Melon;37122416]The Hurt Locker was amazing.[/QUOTE]
it's a dumb action flick that parades itself on being 'realistic' when it's it's the complete opposite

You aren't using that word right.
It looks like they are using paint for those trails :v:
Fuck, i half-arsedly read the thread title and thought they were making some female spin-off of the Deuce Bigalow movies.
I hope this turns out like the Jessica Lynch thing.

Also 9/11 was an inside job and we never landed on the moon.
