For example, you have 5 versions of The Dark Knight Rises, 3 of Captain America: The Winter Soldier 3D, or The Amazing Spiderman and The Amazing Spiderman 3D, etc.

I'm sorry for being so dense. Sometimes I need things to be broken down Barney style So yeah, I do have five versions of TDKR so I counted them as five individual listings when I typed it up. So on my list, Army of Crime was numero uno and 47 Ronin was 598. I'm still confused. But thank you very much for taking the time to try and help me. You are helping me but I'm just afraid I'm a little more rockish than most of the people you deal with

And another thing I sometimes think about just because I think about weird things lol is which SF is the most badass of the badass. Is it Delta Force, the Navy Seals, the SAS, Spetsnaz?

I just watched that Snowden movie the other day. Pretty fascinating stuff!

As far as best SF. When you guys were set to go give Osama his justice, Seal Team 6 was utilized eh? That says something. Although I'm sure Delta Force could've achieved that goal as well.
I believe those two forces are some of the most bad ass mofos on the planet.

I'm in the mood for a movie featuring Spec Ops.
Can anyone recommend something to do with Navy Seals or Delta Force?

Thank you!

I read an newspaper interview a few years back with an ex-SAS/SBS member who said that the rest of the world style their SF on the SAS and scores of Delta Force had tried to get into the SAS but only 3 had passed (up to that point). It's all conjecture who the best are because in the same interview (IIRC) he said the SAS don't take any credit for operations as the less the enemy know what they do and how they do it the better.

and





zero dark thirty has a lot of non-action in it, but i really liked it for the story.

and i liked that they were both based on true events.

Full Metal Jacket will always be my favourite film about the USMC.

I love those two movies!
I've seen ZDT about three times and BHD maybe four or five times.
I'll definitely be watching both again!

I am thinking about switching our HT and living room set-ups.
I'd have to patch holes and then cut new ones in the ceiling and I'm not liking that. Idk.

i still need to do that behind my tv. i have the drywall up and all i need to do is tape, mud, sand, and paint. but since it's behind the tv you can't see it unless you actively look behind there. so naturally i've been putting it off.

and i STILL need to run the wires for my rears. they're wired, but the wires just go down the wall then along the floor, around the room, and to the avr. but i need to do that now while it's not hot and humid outside since i have to go up in the attic. it's not difficult to do...well, one of them isn't. the other one will be kind of a pain since it's on an outside wall. but i need to get that done and then go ahead and install the wall pates for the connections since i already have all the stuff i need. plus i want to run an hdmi cable from my computer to my tv while i'm at it since i'd be up in the attic anyway.

I enjoyed Snowden quite a bit. I love these movies based on real-life events and I like how they're current and relevant. If you have not seen Breach, I would give that one a try. I'm assuming you have seen it but if you haven't, it's about FBI agent Robert Hansen played by Chris Cooper and also stars Ryan Feeleepay or whatever his name is lol Someone else suggested Black Hawk Down which I'm assuming you have seen. I think it's a fantastic movie and it's got some good lines.

Yeah it's tough to say who is actually the toughest. I have downloaded some videos on the SAS and spetsnaz recently. I haven't seen any of the SAS ones yet but I did watch a short one on the spetsnaz and they're pretty badass. The thing I find interesting about Delta Force is that the government doesn't actually acknowledge its existence. I think that's accurate. I was in the Marines but it was just the air wing so very laid back compared to other fields. I'm sure it's much different than the grunts. Anyway, I remember hearing a few times that the ROK (Republic of Korea) Marines were pretty badass. I'd hate to be a grunt because cleaning weapons suuuuucks
