I am boycotting the movie. PERIOD.

[Alberta's Child]

I didn’t even hear about the movie until I saw these articles posted about it here on FR.

[Gay State Conservative]

I'll be giving this one a good leaving alone.No trip to the theater,no renting it from the cable company,no watching it on Netflix (because i don't have Netflix),no borrowing it from the local library,no DVD,no Bluray.

I won't even watch it if it comes to free TV.

It was an AMERICAN achievement,not a "human" one.

[Kozak]

Yeah. Went from would see and buy a copy to no way.

No pun intended, I assume.

Buzz is an American original.

I’ll take the “Astronaut’s Wives Club” TV series over this piece of junk any day.

I am not an idol worshiper but Armstrong was a person that I could admire as the only person in the world that could beat anyone else’s record for anything. My second most admired human was Eugene Cernan. His picture of him saluting the AMERICAN flag in the lunar highlands was awesome.

[I want the USA back]

The reason why the leftist film makers didn’t include the flag is that Aldrin is proud to be an American, and that the flag is a symbol of American greatness.
The America-hating leftists thought they could make a few bucks, and $hit on America and the flag as well. Don’t give them one cent.

I am boycotting the movie. PERIOD.

Ditto.

I saw the trailer a bit ago and thought....wow....this sure seems pretty negative.

Now I know why my instincts were correct.

Hollywierd could screw up anything.

SAY NO to ‘FIRST MAN’!

[cyclotic]

One of my kids works in the space industry and is a complete space geek.

He was really excited about this movie and is now upset. He may still see it but will certainly be disappointed.

It’s pathetic what these idiot filmmakers do to put their personal politics over actual history.

[Kartographer]

Something to think about does it get anymore American than this!

[B]acon cubes were among the meals stored in the lunar module. And it worked out that meal A, the first scheduled meal to be eaten on the Moon, consisted of bacon squares, peaches, sugar cookie cubes, pineapple grapefruit drink and coffee. They ate history’s first meal on Moon slightly ahead of schedule after landing at the Sea of Tranquility.

I won’t post the actual pic cuz it’s YUGE, but here’s a link to an awesome photo of a Saturn V on a crawler, en route to one of the launch pads:

I watched the trailer. i saw the flag on the left arm of Gosling only once and it’s from the front view. so you can barely see it. I suspect you can bet they’ve kept it out of almost all the scenes. No way i’m watching this.

[Dr. Zzyzx]

Read an article yesterday where the director says the planted flag appears in several scenes. He just left out the actual planting scene. Don’t know if that’s true or not.

[HonkyTonkMan]

Please tell this actor and producer Bluto’s speech about the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor was not a documentary.

[dfwgator]

Just be glad that they didn't have the UN Flag, instead....

[Carriage Hill]

Ditto.

[dfwgator]

I remember one of the recent Superman movies, where Perry White, said something like, “Superman fights for Truth, Justice.....and all that other stuff”.

[jeffc]

Hey Chazelle, I saw The Right Stuff. First Man is no The Right Stuff.

Also, if the movie doesn't show Armstrong as the first man on the moon, why is it called First Man?
