luckyBatistuta Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 No, not Ritchie...not my Ritchie!!! Went to see La Bamba on my first date with my wife who also brought her pal with her. Was sitting there at this point in the movie with a lump in my throat trying to fight back the tears, thinking please, please don’t bubble in front of them It still gets me to this day though, it’s just sad man😞😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pap Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Just now, iantjambo said: He was better than Barnes. It was a tongue in cheek, albeit a direct quote from Platoon 😊 Curious thing is. I was an Elias man. Smoking weed and then just bolting off to do his on sub missions. Apart from the village scenes with supposed Vietcong villagers. Barnes has the right ideology. "When the machine breaks down, we break down. That Hogmanay, when Elias and his mob were pished and smoking weed out of gun barrels while Barnes sat, literally soberly with his mob playing cards. The next scene was on new years day at the crack of dawn. On patrol. ****ed if i'd want any Elias's team backing me up 😂 I cant recall any of Barnes tactics (outwith that scene) being bad. And if you notice when they torched that village, explosions started going off from hidden munitions. Elias put a lot of people at risk, though bravely but ultimately got killed by doing. Believe it or not my mind is still a bit fuzzy on it. Defo about time i re-watched it. By the way. A total gem of a Vietnam film - Platoon Leader. Michael Dudikoff. I absolutely love it. Cannon at its best 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right: incredible film 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shot the wife. Yep. Manny was found dead near the entrance of this village. It was clearly correct that it was under control of the Vietcong. Charlie Sheen wasnt exactly an angel either in that village. And Sheen didnt have the right to kill Barnes. All in all a war that completely ****ed peoples minds up. Excellently portrayed by Stone & FFC in Apocalypse Now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
