im not big into war
im not big into war movies, books, or stories. i find it the most boring genre that exists. i know enough about the history of the big wars with which the united states was involved to be comfortable about them. i dont need to see movie after movie or read book after book to find out all i can about them.
on of b's coworkers (a guy with whom we both went to high school) is a war movie fanatic. and he had to make sure b borrowed this dvd of his: band of brothers.
not only is this a war dvd, but it is 5 war dvds; each dvd has two episodes of an hour and a half. ten parts and 15 hours of world war 2 (i guess it was an HBO mini-series, so the length makes sense).
the shocking part is that i watched the entire thing with b (not all at once: that would be suicide). even more shocking is that i kind of liked it.
but im still not changing my mind on the war genre. its all really the same plot: the us blows up the bad guys and most of the time they win. feh.

2 Love Notes
i really enjoyed "the last castle" which was kindof a war movie...
I see Danny forced the Band of Brothers on you.. That boy is addicted to all things war. I've tried to watch it a few times and I seem to not be able to get past the first episode. I do enjoy war movies but I like it to end in the span 2 hours. Anything else seems a bit to drawn out. I guess I'll never be a good soldier war takes too long. :)
