anybody on that list that you would want to portray marcus? Kirk cammeron? kelsey grammer? ;)

even Bruce willis is a touch old for that role wouldnt you say?

totally agree with you on the political side of that story... really hoping that happens.. but if nothing else, itll be a good action flick that deserved to be shown...

Yeah, Bruce is too old, but Jim Caviezel would probably be good, or Dean Cain, although he's probably not "big name" enough to really sell the movie like Marky Mark. In his younger days, Tom Berenger would have been perfect (thinking before Sniper and Substitute era Berenger).

^^ yeah.. it's a shame that even with some of these big names, that hollyweird still thinks it's to dangerous to have big name repubs..(with FEW exceptions)

ALL politics aside, hopefully this will be a good movie.

Keep it civil guys.

I believe the "S" is where the firefight started or where they came into contact with the sheperds.

I pictured that place A LOT different from Marcus' own description (I've seen him speak and tell the story in person, even shook his hand) and from the book.

That's an interesting picture. I now understand what Marcus meant by how it was "raining bullets" and they just kept falling down the side of the mountain to get cover. Mother of God that had to be one hell of an engagement. Pisses me off we couldn't get air support or a platoon of Marines in there to help them out. God bless them.

yeah I kind of agree.. it was a shame that it took so long, and then when it did happen we lost that bird..

I remember reading and just wishing they could put a couple A-10s in the air... probably would have been a lot quiter for when the helicopters wanted to go in. (then again, I dont know much about this stuff)

Looking forward to the movie.

Don't give a rats ass about the actors. Their ideals will probably never align with mine.

Will wait for video release or cable. Don't like theaters anyway.

I just watched the trailer. As an action flick, it looks good. BUT, I have read the book and I will stand by this..... Good men died because of their own "I,m a bullet proof Navy Seal hooah" bullshit! Four guys are NOT direct action anything. You get comprimised, you extract. I am not a fan of Marcus or his book. If you want to read about real hero's, check out "Thirty Seconds over Tokyo". As the "Lone Survivor", Marcus should have been court martialed. Again, I stand by this post, so let's get it on.

I was under the impression that their extraction was destroyed in the air, along with a lot of good men??
