Watch Rambo: First Blood Part 3....no really
The Special edition DVD has a good little "Making of" documentary that tells quite a bit about our the politics of U.S.-Afghanistan relations in the 1980's. A decent view through the Cold War lens, as Rambo spends his time hanging with future Northern Alliance/Taliban "Freedom Fighters." It's interesting. Plus, Rambo blows stuff up and that's always fun to watch.

1. In what state
is Sylvester Stallone going to run for governor?

Or maybe a national office? This movie shows he has as much foreign policy sense as any other executive branch leader.

Soryy, I'm in a cynical mood

2. I thought it was filmed in Israel?
I've already got a copy of that one, but not the Special Edition. It tells a story of Afghanistan which is pretty ugly, when you look at the way we abandoned a nation torn apart by a civil struggle to defeat an invading army. Also gives you an idea of what Iraq will look like within a short time.

4. that was Israel
that explains soooo much... you know why those generals were racist pigs executing those people with helicopters and stuff... i got the video down stairs... i never knew that the russians were really israeli's... but now i get it.!!! duuuh!!

When a movie requires racists who murder people without conscience, were better to film than israel... they should advertise to get more flicks filmed in their racist back yard... ha!
