Here it is, a really good great:

Apocalypse Now had an infamously hard production, and casting Brando was just one of the mistakes.

And incredible movie anyway. https://youtu.be/yafLm-ByQWo

KURTZ (yelling) Charles!

They stagger and fall, shattered and bleeding, save one who's merely lost his weapon. Kurtz looks at him, his gun empty. He drops it and flips open the flap of his holster. The Viet soldier goes for his pistol. Kurtz beats him to the draw and blows him into the night. He moves over to pick up the NVA light machine gun. Holding it at his hip, he stands atop one of the ruined walls and FIRES into the masses. His native men see him and rush for the chance to die beside him. They are quickly encircled by onrushing Viets and are being overrun. The machine gun jams and Kurtz grabs a rifle. When it's empty and the bayonet is off he wields it as a club.

274 MED. SHOT - LOW ANGLE - KURTZ

taking swings with his rifle, standing atop the wall and battering the oncoming enemy like Davy Crockett at the Alamo.

275 FULL VIEW - THE FORTRESS

The air strike hits with all its force. Balls and rain of fire sweeps down on the temple, the enemy, everything. It is the biggest firework show in history.

The wall Kurtz was standing on, and he falls with it. Willard sees this and makes his way toward him as the air strike continues. All around us is a spectacle of MUSIC and light and fire and overwhelming color.

Not really, he's very eccentric but an excellent and fearless officer. (Did you see Colonel Kilgore's entry in "Villains Wiki"? These guys clearly watched some other movie.)

NOW, the whole movie is entirely misunderstood. Because you see, even, and rather especially, Colonel Kurtz is a hero. Marlon Brando's casting badly damaged his character, because in the script he's looking like a long haired blonde Adonis while also being like Mars incarnated. The original ending had him dying heroically after manning a ground mounted minigun (from a long disabled helicopter) to mow down a horde of North Vietnamese invading his temple. (I'm not making it up.) Brando was already hardly mobile, besides bald.

Russia is much more corrupt.

Americans didn't invade a neighbour in over 100 years now (Mexican civil war intervention due to Pancho Villa's raids on America).

Poland has "Saudi allies"? Also Russia is way closer to the Saudi Arabia now than America under Biden.

Ironically the Marines love Full Metal Jacket unironically. Both it and All Quiet were written semi-autobiographically by veterans, and FMJ (The Short-Timers) was even written by a Southern guy who hated the USA, love-hated the USMC, and loved the Confederacy.

But you know, you're the most amazing guy. The Russiana have been cleared from the entire Kharkiv Oblast, they don't even try to hide it, but you still can't believe.

But maybe you should finally explain to me what did you mean by "creeping defense in depth" that you invented.

(https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/15IrBahnJA/x/c/4Ob8KF5UmSk which is still the only instance of the phrase "creeping defense in depth" on the entire internet).

Meanwhile the despair and hysteria on Wagner Telegram channels and Russian TV substains me.

Speaking of Russian media, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zakharova had just accessed America of having "committed genocide" against Russian media and journalists.

Both Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan hold Russian bases, but all combat personnel (or 85% of all) have left to be demilitarized in Ukraine.

Azeri forces have hit Russian bases and vehicles in Armenia (including the FSB "humanitarian mission in the combat zone") to no Russian response of any kind, other than fleeing.

People don't know that until the 19th century malaria was the ultimate whitey keep out solution. This is why the Sub-Saharan Africa was the "Dark Continent", it's because it was mostly not even roughly mapped.

The Dahomey inflicted 700 casualties,

No, mostly malaria did.

In both wars altogether the French suffered only 100 dead (with just 16 in the first war), including their civilian black porters, including the dead from disease.

Also Boudicca slaughtered a lot of Romans first (including an entire city of army veteran settlers at Camulodunum and most of the 9th Legion, also razed Londinium), while the other one is a fictional character.

They had modern artillery, machine guns, repeating rifles, all best weapons the slave trade can buy.

The French had alcohol and bayonets.

Kill ratio 1:100.

These Poor kids may be just as smart as the Asian kid, but they seem to hold a lot of resentment.

Ziminski, who has an upside-down crucifix, three teardrops, and the word “SIN” tattooed on his head, was originally supposed to go on trial in January for the riot-related charges, but the trial was delayed after he was accused of intimidating a freelance photographer who was set to testify in the case.

Fuck, he terrorized the based autist.

Guys, I was joking because of the attack on Armenia. Cenk didn't actually say it. (But he has a history with the issue.)

Hun(garian)s have never conquered it from the Eastern Romans at all.

They tried, under Attila, but got only to the Balkans and the mainland Greece.
