Saw this today. Also loved the Dr1. Was a replica of one 6 miles form my house, when I was growing up. Would stand staring at it for ages .

I would be overwhelmed with excitement had I seen this plane in flight.

Should you be charged if you leave drugs out for kids to take and die?

It’s criminal negligence if you leave drugs or car keys out and somebody gets hurt. If you leave a firearm out its a different matter. Why? Hint Hint……The NRA will not go to bat for your misplaced keys or drugs…

@toblerone77:

@Gargantua:

I remember reading about a balloonist in the 80’s who was trying to circumnavigate the world.

He crossed into soviet airspace over Romania accidentally and was shot down.

But that wasn’t the best part lol… the pilots who shot him down recieved medals for “bravery in the face of extreme danger”

L O L !

Another case where a balloon was mistaken as an “UFO”. Lol

Well Garg, those pilots WERE flying Soviet aircraft. Pretty brave if you ask me.

I really wanted to like it but it was so compressed, I think the best scene is when that CGI plane blows up in the sky during the invasion. Was there a drop of blood in the whole movie that wasn’t from the deer? Not that I’m blood thirsty but this was a war movie.

This version will never be as good as MY Red Dawn back in the 80’s. The most dissapointing thing was waiting the 2 years when they were about to release it and followiing it on YouTube with bootleg footage and the fake trailers…humpf…I feel cheated. But, I found a blu ray copy of the original and it came with $7.50 off the price of a ticket so it only cost me $2.50 to watch so there Helmsworth! Put that towards your Malibu condo dude!

All true Red Dawn fans know this fact, It was the first ever rated PG-13 movie. In todays rating world, the orginal might have been rated R while this new version should have been Rated G.

Thanks for letting me vent fellas.

I see no problem signing your free will away to some computer who will put you in the perfect job for society, will genetically engineer your children to propegate the species and will determine the most efficient utilization of your resources.

Im fine with the way it happened. I dont care for getting involved in European problems, but sometimes we have to help out our allys. The fact that we could commit thousands of fresh troops after the krauts had exausted themselves was a key factor in winning. Sitting out for a bit helped.

Of course we can never forget “One Eye” Saburo Sakai. He managed to go up against the best-trained pilots of all time and survive. Outnumbered and outgunned by Wildcats, Hellcats, and Corsairs, he still managed to rack 64 kills (though the Japanese military did not credit individual pilots with victory claims). Plus, Sakai was a man of character.

Not any plans to make them at the moment. Personally, I think those are mediocre games, they’d have to change them significantly to make them computer games.
