Tropic Thundaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The movie I chose to BLOG about is Tropic Thunder. It takes a less serious look at war and spices it up with comedy. They are working on shooting the most expensive war movie ever. They try to make it as real as they could make it, but all of a sudden, the camera guy dies and then they find themselves in a real life war. They don't know its real, they just think its all actors and special affects. The film makers are trying to say that war is unexpected and you have to be ready to fight no matter what. A similaratary of this movie to slaughterhouse five is that one of the actors becomes a POW just like Billy. Mary O'Hare would not like this movie because it kind of mocks war and she has lived through it and she would feel bad.

  2. Yeah, I liked this movie. I agree that Mary would not like the movie at all. She would probably be offended at how the movie mocks such a serious topic to her.

  3. I thought this movie was super funny because of Alpo Chino, but also I agree that Mary would not like it because it mocks something that might mean a lot to her. Your posts always make me crack a smile :) !
