http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/origina ... /main.html

capitalizing on the war? or gripping tv dramatizing what the coalition troops are going through? you be the judge tonight at 10pm.....i almost think its in poor taste but ill watch it before i conclude my clarity of thought in this post..... freak:

Milla 07-27-2005 01:02 PM

It looks like its about the Army, and its probably some anti war message.

KTOG 07-27-2005 01:02 PM

I bet its funded by the gov't to bring up moral.

Ferich 07-27-2005 01:08 PM

Hopefully it's legitimate. We'll see.

i wouldnt be surprised if this was an anti-war series

Pyro 07-27-2005 02:34 PM

anti-war series would be the right step. Well not outright anti-war....but anti-war if isn't like saving your country from oblivion and not from greed.

Don't worry, nobody else knows what the fuck he's talking about, either.

m00nraker 07-27-2005 10:19 PM

I wasnt too impressed. It had its moments, like when the guy got destroyed by the M203. Other then that, it would have made a good mini-series, like BoB, but the commercials kinda ruined it for me.

newt. 07-27-2005 10:21 PM

fuck that tv bullshit, read Generation Kill and lets kill some bad guys! rock:

Sgt. Paine 07-27-2005 10:21 PM

^agree with moonraker

It kind of went by pretty fast, at the end i said "that's it?"

It wasnt a good cliff hanger.

BTW who was sent off in the chopper?

wintersforge 07-27-2005 10:33 PM

blanco conejo 07-27-2005 11:50 PM

i wasnt impressed

poor story line.
most fight scenes are rediculous.
acting is not up to par
iraqi conscripts are white stupid:

after watching the movie, the only question you'll ask is "where did that hour of my life go"

Jimmy Paterson 07-27-2005 11:52 PM

Vance 07-27-2005 11:59 PM

Although I agree with blanco, this was just the first installment, I see no reason not to watch the second.

Madmartagen 07-28-2005 12:02 AM

I'll watch it tonight, Steven Bochco does a good job.

Swill 07-28-2005 03:02 AM

"fucking cracka"

Airborne Butters 07-28-2005 12:25 PM

I thought it was extremely good. Very cool fire fights and it was actually pretty balanced. It showed the extremity of the war and the political bs they deal with (i.e. the General 75 miles down the road that needs to know how this would play out on tv...).

The camera angles were somewhat unique. The typical "follow them with the camera while getting dirt on the lense" was in there but they also had really cool angles, plus I thought it was cool that when the soldiers had nightvision on, the camera was in nightvision mode.

The extras they had to use for Arabs were a bit laughable, but seriously when you're working on a TV show you only have so much to work with.

This looks like it could be a good series. As of late FX has been pumping out some really good shows. Rescue Me is probally one of my favorite shows and althought I didn't much care for The Shield or Nip/Tuck, I've heard nothing but good things about it.

Fat ass

Anyway, it was ok, theres to much bull shit in it though, like that part where the guy is singing, thats uncalled for and extremely gay. Also the video email part, i understand that part, but they didnt need to show the entire fucking squad, maybe 1 or 2 guys would of been enough.

Ill watch next week, because Bull Randelman is in it next week rock: happy:
