He has not seen Mr. Roberts? Next thing you're going to tell me is that he has not seen The Caine Mutiny.
Then we have the M*A*S*H issue as well. I dare not mention any others like "The Longest Day" or "A Bridge to Far."

Never seen Roberts or Caine. I've seen the others, though.

You are nekulturny, RL.
Get some culture and rent some classic flicks, from before Hollywood went to Hell.

Not my thing at all. I don't have the patience.
And would you stop making me look up words to know what the heck you're talking about? Rumspringer.  LOL

No time for pro-US war movies?
Okay, where is the real RL, Doppleganger?
Just thought I would turn the tables on you, legal beagle.

Rumspringer?
For a minute I thought it might be something the Navy does but then I realized there is no "P" in the word.

The implication was that RL must have been Amish, to have missed out on so many quality, pro-American films.
Rumspringer is when the Amish youth go out to visit the World and decide if they want to remain Amish, or move to the modern world.
Keeping up so far?

Seriously, my favorite movie as a kid was Midway. I saw it literally more than 100 times. Used to really piss people off saying the lines before the characters spoke them.

Well at least tell us you have seen Tora! Tora! Tora!
I mean we are getting to the point where I would go for just having seen 1941. 
King Pin is a freaking riot.

Yep, seen 'em both.
What is this, the "movies RL has and has not seen" thread?
I haven't seen anyone discuss the movie, really.
What's with Mr. Sulu's ability to deliver all those Montagnards? Wouldn't they really have killed him given the chance?

Okay....now that you've seen the film.....it's QUIZ time.
These questions will be "easy". The more you watch the film, the harder the questions become.
1) Who was the Bathroom named after and why?
2) Why did Team Sergeant Mulldoon like to blow things up.
3) What was the name of Ham-chunk's pal? (and it wasn't Peterson)
4) What did Peterson "Believe" in?
5) What was JW's (Col Kirby's) call sign?
