Michael Bay movie to premiere at AT&T Stadium
Star-Telegram ^ | December 23, 2015 | Cary Darling

Posted on 01/01/2016 12:15:23 PM PST by BlueDragon

You may have heard of 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, the new film from blow-'em-up-real-good director Michael Bay of Armageddon and Transformers fame.

... ... ...

It's going to make its debut at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 12 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington as part of a promotional push, Paramount Studios confirmed Wednesday.

13 Hours... revolves around the six-man security team that defended the American diplomatic compound at Benghazi, Libya, during an attack by terrorists in 2012 that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens.

... ... ...

Tickets are free through ticketmaster.com and thirteenhoursmovie.com as long as supplies last. The film is rated R so kids under 17 need to be with an adult. Parking is also free.

Thought this may be of interest to D-FW area freepers.

I imagine that the film would be shown on the large screen overhanging the playing field, or wherever that screen (or screens?) is.

I've never been inside that stadium, so can't picture it in mind's eye.

Maybe the City of Arlington has something to do with how the stadium is used other than NFL venue (and shares in with costs to some extent?) for the stadium is something of a promotional attraction within the city, and is used often for other things, such as the Cotton Bowl (game) being played there yesterday, instead of at the historic Cotton Bowl (originally named Fair Park Stadium) in Fair Park, Dallas.

The link tells me the Bowl game has been played in the stadium in Arlington since year 2010.

PLEASE go see the movie. “Oz” was my roommate, student, friend, and fellow jarhead. He had 12 surgeries as a result of the Hildabeast.

I think it is hilarious that the premiere of this movie is two weeks before Iowa.

While the book (and I am sure the movie) was apolitical, I am guessing the fallout is not going to be good for Hillary.

We need to repeatedly ask the question (as mentioned before by other FReepers) -

WHERE ARE THE SURVIVORS?

'Somebody is lying,'
McLaughlin told her Wednesday.
'Who is it?'

'Not me,
that's all I can tell you,'
Clinton replied,
casting blame on the families.

I'm not sure how much it will, or can -- or not. If it does, it should hurt Zippy too. Which would be nice...

I watched one of the movie 'trailers' at the http://www.thirteenhoursmovie.com/ link (there appeared to be 4, or 5 differing ones there?) and it did seem to include how orders were given to 'stand down' etc. That may be shuffled off onto lower chain-of-command though, which could give the lying Hildbeast room to wiggle (like she does each time her lie-telling serpent-tongue squirms between her cheeks), but I hope not. Haven't seen the movie, so I dunno how much it will nail the [unprintable, at this point].

Just now had it come to me that in the thread's heading, I failed to code the links to the prior, (just now) supplied link, and to ticketmmaster where one can obtain free tickets to be printed at home. It did not appear to me that there was an option for obtaining tickets any other way.

Please man -- don't beat yourself up. It may not have been your calling.

That you honor those who did serve, along with a large part of the way you are (plus Jesus, of course, whom you carry with you in what you do, how you think of things, etc., as far as I can tell, going by your comments on this forum) is enough -- for me.

I do not fault you.

Yes.

There is a whole lot that is tangled-up FUBAR about our nation (not that that makes us the Lone Ranger of all nations, it should be added) and military personnel often get left with the short end ---of everything.

Hillary, and thus OBozo TOO(!) (that illegitimate bastard!) left those people hanging out to dry. Left them for dead, in ending results.

But here I am, blessing on the hand, while cursing the DemoCrap Party leadership on the other. Mankind is perverse in that way. The pervert Dems seem to simply insist upon dragging that out of a guy. Then, according to how Obozo and his handlers manipulate the media (when they can get away with it) they blame the reaction on being some horrible assemblage of fault on the part of those who oppose their own (DemoParty) FUBAR.

Thanks for pinging.

I added one, but can't which recall other freepers may be in that area.

There are likely to be hundreds more...

boy, that was a great post.

And I HOPE it does hurt her and him. Thought that monster will be gone in a year with a 400k salary and lifetime health, while our brain injured soldiers have a lifetime nightmare ahead for them and their family.

I want cutting edge treatment and discoveries yesterday for them.

you see the commercials, where they can’t talk, have to be led around, see the scars on their heads, and it tears you apart.

God bless them. And you too :)

Being 2nd generation from Italy, I fear my posts are too emotional for this website sometimes lol.

we tend to wear our hearts on our sleeve sometimes.

Pop was the opposite though. Tough as nails and kept his emotions in check :)

I still have mixed feelings about this. Stevens and the whole Benghazi operation was a CIA/State effort to support Al Qeida in Libya, and then to ship those arms on to Syrian Al Qeida by way of Turkey.

So it sucks that they were all left hanging out there. And it tells me tons about Hillary and her evil. But no American should be even slightly proud of the group in Benghazi. They might as well been working for the Sinaloa cartel.

While in love to have the movie be truthful...

Considering the timing, the subject and its coming out of Hollywood.....can it be anything more than a complete propaganda revisionist history whitewash for Hillary?....

there's no way in hell that anyone in Hollywood with finance anything at this time that would hurt Hillery....she will end up some how being the hero in this thing
