ef him...

Yeah. That pretty much sums it up as far as I'm concerned.

Every time Ace makes a post, a puppy drowns to death.

That's a shame. People tend to like puppies.

I'd punch a MF in his skinny ass throat if it happened in front of me. Back in my more violent days.

Dead silence from whole theater at the end of movie. Very moving...

This is true. To date, 801 of them wont be down for for chow, or lick another face, or roll down the stairs, or... You get the idea.

Just saw it. My theater was quiet at the end also.

As for the movie, I wish they'd just told the story in the book. I don't know why they had to add so many "story lines" that just didn't happen. His actual story was interesting enough, IMHO.

we went to the 10;30 this morning. we figured we'd beat the crowds, we were wrong. the place was sold out.
what a powerful movie. it was all i could do to not bawl at the end. when the movie was over, everyone just sat there. when we finally did quietly file out, someone said 'God Bless America', everyone said a quiet 'Amen'. very moving

I'm not really sure why this is a liberal/conservative thing? Is it just because Kyle was a gun guy?

We have the movie on the list to see.

I find it interesting that some of the same people who chastised Clint Eastwood for being so over the hill and senile with his "Empty Chair" production a few years back are now totally livid that Eastwood is getting the entertainment dollars and publicity that could have been spent on some of their movies. All they can do is spout stupid hatred remarks. I guess Eastwood was not quite over the hill yet. I bet the next years Oscar (think that is the right one) selections will surely have some heated discussions.

As I see it, I am not expecting a precise documentary. It is just a movie based on a story of hearsay, close enough for me. I really can get past minor details of his shoe size not being accurate. It is just a movie, right?
