Hi, Dutka. Yes, I'm familiar with both the book by Joihn Katzenbach (which was far superior - no surprise, at least to me) and the film. The film was a disappointment to me. I really tried to like it, and even though it had two of my favorite actors in it - Willis + Farrell - I'm not sure it would rank in my personal Top 100 War Films list.

Re: TOP 10 war movies
Isn´t Willis playing in republican propagana pro war movies only these days?
The last stuff I´ve seen him in was so disapointing and that disturbs me more than his heavy pro iraq war attitudes("who cares for the civil victims in iraq?" he said on TV).

Well, you have to understand that most people can't handle fame. Willis has become a respected actor (12 Monkeys, Pulp Fiction) and thinks that slaughtering people in a war zone is that same as talking big talk by a Sunset Boulevard bar counter.
Btw, I liked your "DP Forum PR sh1t" motto far more than your present one!

Nothing against the Silver Surfer! But I´d kept that, had it caught on, but unfortunatly it didn´t, I thought about it as some kind of imaginary T-Shirt for the admins, but they didn´t want to wear it(well except for Brad, thanks for that!).

Nope, I still like to wear my Firefox imaginary shirt.

Don't know if you forgot it, or if you simply don't agree, but I would like to add "Hudson Hawk" - very entertaining little movie

Nope, I didn't forget, nor is it that I don't agree that "Hudson Hawk" was an entertaining little movie - I was just trying to keep the movie list as close to a 'Top 1o' as I could! I felt I would've been remiss in not listing the role I first saw Willis in, the ABC television series, "Moonlighting". Something had to get bumped, and "HH" was on the list of 'bumpees'.

Re: TOP 10 war movies
Moonlighting is great! Better than most he has done since. I think he plays far to serious, he can actually be very hilarious as was proofed by this series.
