A movie based on the battle of Fallujah is set for release in 08 (with Harrison Ford as Gen. Mattis). I don’t have any inside info, but grumblings have started that it will be the usual leftist twaddle.

The one good thing that I found out about that movie is that it is based on Bing West’s book “No True Glory”. Bing West and his son (who served in Iraq) are writing the screenplay. That said - who knows what hollyweird will do with it from there...

And I have had a fear this would be the only way the movie would be made. Eastwood would have done no better or for that matter most any Hollywood producer.
Probably the only one that would put together a really great movie on this would have been Bruce Willis. He most likely would have produced a flick that would bring true honor to the Corps..
