Maybe he was too old or maybe they thought he lost his credibility when he lampooned his own character in "Hot Shots! Part Deux." They could have worked in an appearance pretty easy.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13153793623409748857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36435530.post-37349448185537878902008-07-07T07:14:00.000-06:002008-07-07T07:14:00.000-06:00Yup.

I felt it could have been a decent enough movie without so much carnage that it would make Sam Peckinpah cringe. How many times do you really need to see a human head explode under the impact of a .50-caliber BMG round?<BR/><BR/>The only refreshing thing about the whole movie was that (a) Hollywood admitted there are Christians and (b) they are getting persecuted around the globe. This is actually quite common in some places, especially those whose governments are sanctioned by the Religion of Peace, but it is not worthy of the Mainstream Media, who have more important stories, like celebrity marriages, to cover. Usually, the only Christians that appear in a modern movies are cookie-cutter stereo-typed bigots who "perscute" gays.<BR/><BR/>There was also a wee tiny smattering of history, as the rescue party stumbles across an unexploded Royal Air Force bomb in the jungle, a left-over from WWII. This no doubt caused many of the younger folks in the audience, products of publik skools, to sit up, take note, and ask, "What's World War Two?"Bawbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10194337224433517477noreply@blogger.com
