American Sniper - jfergus7 - 12-16-2014
Anyone else excited for this movie to come out? I am not a big theater fan but this one I am looking forward to going and seeing!
RE: American Sniper - Dutz - 12-16-2014
I am not sure about excited, but I am going to see. Eastwood directing helps.
RE: American Sniper - XdEric - 12-16-2014
I saw a trailer for this a while back. looks really good!
RE: American Sniper - BelieveIn308 - 12-16-2014
I'd recommend everyone read Chris Kyle's (who was a real cowboy) book American Sniper. It is an incredible story. There is a story in there I just love... They are on an Aircraft Carrier, and the XO calls a couple of them in and explains that he is having a gang problem in one of the gyms. The two of them go down to the gym, ask an officer and chief to leave, then dog the hatch behind them, and proceed to fairly discuss the issue with the 6 gang members. The two leave and then call for corpsmen to take them to sick bay... Something about a bunch of accidents with weights...

You're just on roll with your one liners today. You're actually making me Laugh out Loud.

Proud to say, I borrowed that quote from Chris Kyle...
He's was a great American Hero. His story is one of service to his country, and trying to live by a high morale code. He was not perfect, but he was a superb American Patriot.
RE: American Sniper - BelieveIn308 - 12-16-2014
His second book 'American Gun" is worth a read also!
RE: American Sniper - bradberry - 12-21-2014
Can't wait to see it. Lets just hope that Hollywood did not destroy it with their usual crap.
RE: American Sniper - XdEric - 12-21-2014
I think it will be good because of the fact that Clint Eastwood directed it. But who knows.
RE: American Sniper - mikereddot - 12-21-2014
MY wife told me that Chris' wife saw it, the thanks the producer for bringing her husband back to live for 2 hours. His wife claimed that Brad Cooper did a wonderful job.
RE: American Sniper - bradberry - 12-21-2014
As long as they kept it close to it with a little Hollywood and I do mean LITTLE it will be a great story of Chris.
RE: American Sniper - Fireman - 12-22-2014
This definitely looks like a good movie to see. Hopefully Hollywood didn't ruin the story.
RE: American Sniper - Mike25 - 12-22-2014
As mentioned earlier...great book. Will wait to see it at home when it's available on On Demand
RE: American Sniper - BelieveIn308 - 12-22-2014
Chris Kyle is this generations Audie Murphy... I encourage everyone to read both his books! And "Killing Patton" is also a great read.
RE: American Sniper - RJDSRT - 01-04-2015
Ill be going to see it for sure. Dude is a legend
RE: American Sniper - mikereddot - 01-04-2015
I wanted to see it, but had my daughter here, and she wouldn't be into that type of movie.
RE: American Sniper - Wolfdrache - 01-04-2015
But it looks sooo good.

You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once.
