Generation Kill - DVD box set

Post by Ronald RayGun »

We all know how amazing this show is and in my opinion it's worthy of multiple views, but the reason to pick this up is for the commentaries. They range from hilarious to insightful. Hearing the perspectives of the Marines depicted in the series is damned interesting. If you're into the film making process there's plenty of great info there as well. On top of all of that the packaging is great.

I've been meaning to get this. I know a lot of the guys that were in the unit at that time. The book is worth a read.

I loved the book, but I figured this would just be a bunch of left wing Hollywood crap.

If it's not I'll netflix as well.

Not left wing.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

Awesome book.

I laugh when I think of some dude singing "Sundown" and another singing "It's Hot in here" while shooting Jawas.
