its people like you that make me do what i do, thanks dawg

and wait a second, no they dont risk their lives for me to live freely. America is not at war with any nation on earth that poses a threat to me as an 18 year old Canadian. 70 years ago that fact would stand to be true, but not today. Is it nice to know that your troops voluntarily risked their lives for lower oil prices down there? I dont think I could live knowing that but thats just one of the many things that separates you yanks from us canucks.

I was in afghanistan over part of the summer and i can tell you that this movie is nowhere close to what they do in real life.

It's a display of their capabilities not what they do on the regular

A Canadian is an unarmed American with health insurance. Fuck off.

If the movie did not show them

Sleeping
Eating
And
Lifting,

it is not a true depiction of their capabilities.

just got back from the movie theater and im still in shock. hands down one of the best movies i have seen in a very long time. the acting was alright but what do you expect there fucking navy seals not actors. it was well made and the action scenes were fucking amazing. bottom line. GREAT FUCKING MOVIE.

probably the most stereotypical American thing you could have ever said, way to represent your nation in a refreshing new light!

and I assure you that health insurance is better to have than your dads .22, once again, great priorities 'Murica!

You're right. You're the first Canadian to beat this already dead horse.

Dude the final scene was pretty deep.

But did anyone else get pissed when people got up and left as the names of those fallen seals since 9/11 came across the screen? Maybe it was just me, but I looked at it as highly disrespectful...

My theater was dead silent and no one moved. I would heckled the fuck out of people if they left. There were so many people crying. Crazy.
