    One Bullet Away: The Making of a Marine Officer by Nathaniel C. Fick. Have you seen Generation Kill? Remember Brad Colbert's Lieutenant in the Marine Recon platoon? This book is written by that guy, and it's awesome. It starts out with him graduating college. He joins the Marine Corps...

    Interstellar (2014)

    When I took a creative writing course in college the professor stated this, "The Hero needs to beat all of the odds at the end. When everything seems lost, he needs to pull a victory out of thin air. But, it really isn't out of thin air, is it? Every decision that the Hero makes along the...

    Team Yankee by by Harold Coyle. Mid 1980's, the Soviets invade Western Germany. The perspective is an armored Company (I guess it is more of reinforced company, hence the designation "Team) with some mechanized infantry and mechanized AT rocket carriages. Follows them for the duration of the...

    Fury: Brad Pitt commands a sherman tank in WW2

    Early on it was incredibly hard to get into the SS. One had to show that his family had been living in German/Austria for several generations and that he was of a pure blood lineage. It was a prestigious position, early on in the war. Of course, as the war went on they started adding foreign...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    Could the eagles have flown into Mordor without Sauron seeing? Because if they did fly in and Sauron see's them, he can just tell the Orcs to storm Mt. Doom and take the ring/shoot the eagles with bows (I guess it becomes a race to see who can get there first). Also, wouldn't the Nazgul start...

    Peaky Blinders

    Got a netflix account. Watched both seasons of this show on a recommendation from a friend. This show is like crack. Will be itching till season 3 comes out.

    Mike Tyson Mysteries on Adult Swim

    First impressions of this are good, if random. Reminds me of a non-nonsensical Venture Bros.

    Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Amazing!

    Saw this. Went drunk. Could still tell it had zero plot. It is like watching a newsreel. Half the movie is people making speeches.

    28mm Miniature Tabletop Wargaming Thread

    Some guy on reddit was complaining the other day that you will have to buy the game and buy additional models within the game. I am not sure if these models are just cosmetic or if they have different stats/abilities. Seems like they are trying to pinch every penny out of their fanbase just like...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    In addition to the orcs, goblins, worgs and trolls we have seen there was almost some end-boss fella who looked like a lich or a black Numanorean (sp) of some sort. So, you can probably bank on the fact he will have black uruks or other evil men as bodyguards that you will have to fight through.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    I've only read about half of the books, and I enjoy the scenes where the Emperor shows up immensely. You could even say I read the books just to catch glimpses of the Emperor. I find the character very interesting. That being said, should I go about reading the other half of the books? Or do...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Will not buy. Battlefield 3 was cool once all the COD kids dropped offline. I don't see why I need to replace something that's fun with something that's exactly the same with "better graphics." Besides, I've had my fill of fighting against Russians and terrorists in desert countries.

    Vikings

    Gotta love a show that kills off the asshole in the first five minutes of the episode and doesn't make you wait the whole hour to actually see the fight. Didn't see Sigi stabbing the Swede, that was pretty cool. Rollo is way too dumb to ever usurp Ragnar, but Ragnar is way too trusting to let...

    He doesn't want people seeing the gold and thinking, "I could go over to the West and get me some of that!" The Jarl is probably setting up to kill Ragnar, then have his raiders go West to get more gold. All he needs to do is keep the fact there is so much gold under wraps, kill the guy who...

    I cant wait to sit in the theater and accurately guess the uninspiring, cliche twist that will no doubt leave me annoyed that I gave more of my money to Hollywood.

    Vikings

    I think Ragnar's wife just used the rape as an excuse to start shit with Knut (sp?) because she wants Ragnar to be top dog and knew that Knut was the Jarl's agent on the trip. But sure, she could have just been a nosy bitch. Cant wait for Ragnar to start lording over some Saxon peasants.

    Vikings

    This show is amazing. The fights are good without being cheesy and consuming too much air time. I like the characters, Ragnar is one of the first characters in a TV series that I like. King is a dick, but if there is a character you hate, that is a good thing. Floki is totally Loki egging on...
