oh the mission to rescue air force captain N. Rich Duranium?
Captain N? The game master?
Im guessing the rescue never even happened. You don’t use mulitple aircraft, let alone transport aircraft to extract a downed pilot. They went for the uranium and got blown out by Iran.
Oh boy oh boy we’re getting Bush era propaganda movies
And the wild part is there’s some evidence the og story was a smokescreen for a failed operation to nab iran’s uranium!
Don’t worry, the Hollywood version will set the record straight with a scene where an awful evil reporter asks that question in an interview with the Great and Noble President and will be publicly shamed for saying something so ridiculous, then later in the movie it’ll turn out that reporter was secretly being an informant for the bad guys but they’ll get backstabbed by them and die horribly.
I assume the pilot was found dead and then ground up and served for dinner on the Lincoln.
That’d be too fresh for the Lincoln tbh
what do you think the gray flap is made of?
I didn’t like this movie the first time I saw it, when it was called Battleship Potemkin with Aleksandr Antonov in 1925.
Pikachu is my favorite potemkin 🥰
<- he volunteered to be turned into soylent green for the troops fulfilling his lifelong dreamHoly FUCK no wonder their pipes keep backing up.
Getting the movie rights to something and making a movie are two very very different things. Studios scoop up story rights like this all the time on the off chance they could do something with it, or have something in the barely embryonic stage that will most likely be passed on. If the Iran War becomes a whole cluster fuck it’s a story they when it was at its cheapest and can therefore maximize war profiteering via shoot n cry films.

I didn’t like this movie the first time I saw it, when it was called Behind Enemy Lines with Owen Wilson in 2001
I didn’t like this movie the first time I saw it, when it was called Wag the Dog with Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro in 1997.
Or when it was Tom Cruise stealing a Tomcat
Easier to adapt a story that seems already mostly fictional
Not even a book about it, but an article
“Have you read this thing? It’s great! It’s almost as if it were written just so we could make a propaganda movie that will win a few Oscars!”
Yeahhh… 
Almost… 
does the airman exist
Remember how quick Hollywood raced to put out 9/11 propaganda? Not this soon but still shockingly soon.
9/11 was a cash cow. In the early stages you got the sentimental stuff and songs that they decided were about 9/11 after the fact like Superman by Five for Fighting and New York Minute by Don Henly while banning sick jams like It’s Raining Men. This shit was pulled in Canada…my parents just recently went to a play that was about people who got their flights redirected to Gander Newfoundland and it seemed like the first 3 months after 9/11 ‘people all coming together in the face of tragedy’ schmaltz recaptured in what must be a punisher of a musical to sit through if saccharine folksy trash isnt your thing. Then the revenge media started ramping up. Canada was in Afghanistan but not Iraq so I only got war propaganda for Afghanistan but I recall getting shown a video in grade 9 about how evil the Taliban are (they arent great folks. I got in trouble for being pretty precocious about this shit at age 15 and asking if the Taliban were better prior to 9/11, cause they werent part of the attack, so if they were evil enough we had to go to war before the attack, why did we wait until now? Same teacher later kn the year while covering ww2 for history made us watch a vhs tape presumably abkut the holocaust and it was for the first 15 minutes and the rest was Israeli propaganda. This dodnt go over too well with the 5 or so kids who’s parents had emigrating here from Lebanon. We have a lot of Lebanese immigrants here, most who came between the 50s and 70s and it seems a good chunk of em opened amazing takeout places, like chain pizza places cant get a foothold cause every block in the city core has a way better greasy food place and almost all are owned and run by Lebanese people, it slaps. They have a festival each year and its fun as hell. It would be really cool if people in my town would stop being shitty about Indian people coming here now while eating a fucking donair
How can you buy the rights to a “””true””” story…?
They specifically acquired the right to base their story on the NYT reporting lmao
You buy the right to not change the names of people
GOOD point
America has no heros.
🤣🤣🤣
