Not many choices...I think "die" is the option with the greatest probability here...

Ive actually never seen the movie heard it was all hollywood fluff from other fellow history buffs,but just from that little clip never want to see it. I love how Cage just blasts away with that thompson like its a bb gun!! My stepfather owns a semiauto Thompson and believe me just rapid fire with a semiauto will beat the hell out of you!!

This movie is so bad I have no words. The only fun thing in it is Nicholas Cage who seemes to be druged the whole time and not realizing whats going on around him.
I would rather watch a certain movie which should not be mentioned again than this piece of $$$$

I would suggest that he quit making bad movies. You also might want to put and OT in front of your subject line as well.

1. Stop make really bad movies
2. Stop using really bad infantry tactics
3. Stop running around like headless chickens

Gore aside, that is one damn dumb movie...[:D]

I only watched the first two parts but it looks like good old Nic personally accounts for 50% of all the Jap KIA on Okinawa.

I've read this whole thread and I still don't know what you guys are talking about. Hollywood always gets it right. Just ask Ben.

I watched the movie and lost about 50 IQ doing that.  It was really bad.

Cage can't do that: he owes the IRS big time for buying every big ticket item in sight, but not paying tax on it.

I agree, when reconsidering my post it does seem misleading. [:D]
