Bin Laden....The Movie

But this time around, moviemakers might have the edge. Director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal, the team behind best picture Oscar winner The Hurt Locker, were already assembling a movie about U.S. forces' pursuit of bin Laden when the successful mission took place.

I wonder who they will get to play the part of Gary Faulkner, being that he was the hound that drove the quarry to the hunters and therefore a vital part of the entire operation.

I am thinking that Randy Quaid would be best and they can save money on makeup since they look so much alike.

And in keeping with the vein of saving money for production purposes, guess who they can get to play Hillary Clinton?

Hurt Locker was one of the worst War movies I ever saw. Let her make a Navy SEAL Movie. I'm sure it will attract future Navy SEALS from all over the USA. Just like the last dozen Movies did. Just the type of recruits you don't want.

What a piece of crap that was! She has proven she has no clue about the military, warfare, or the people who go in harms way.
Now back in the day,I could have played Faulkner. I'd have to get a little drunk first.
Definition of a little drunk.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Bin Lade... but it had nothing to do with SEALS... there might have been some sailors though

I hope they keep it as accurate and realistic as Hurt Locker was.

Absolutely. He'd make Col. Kurtz look like a Peace Corps volunteer!
