Why are their no war movies out of Iraq till now? We have war movies from Kosovo, Serbia, Somalia, Sudan, WW1-2.. almost every war has its movie showing outsiders what it was to be inside..
But still we have no war movies from Iraq/Baghdad yet.. it would be nice to have a movie showing how US forces got fucked..
BTW I loled at Black Hawk Down several times where they showed US army guy killing atleast 100 Somalians before finally getting shot by some black guy.. and also how they did a 'slow motion focus' thing and played sad music everytime US soilder got shot at and showed Somalians getting killed like rats and cockroaches..

I'de say both sides got their asses handed to them. The Americans cut and run. The Somalis got focked up by American firepower. What was inaccurate about that?
quote:
Official U.S. estimates of Somalian casualties at the time numbered 350 dead and 500 injured. Somalian clan leaders made claims of more than 1,000 deaths. The United Nations placed the number of dead at ``between 300 to 500.'' Doctors and intellectuals in Mogadishu not aligned with the feuding clans say that 500 dead is probably accurate.
The kill ratio was at least 1:5.

In a movie depicting the India-Pakistan conflicts, I imagine the Indian movie makers will film a similar sequence for every Indian soldier killed by the Pakistanis. Will you lol at that too ?
