Anti-War propaganda bombing... still...

Previously I complained:

Anti-War propaganda bombing...

...what Iraq War movies have been released that aren't condescending anti-war/anti-American propaganda?

The most recent effort:

Lions For Lambs

Cost est. $35 million

Opening Weekend Domestic Gross : $ 6,710,000

Bomb...

Or more accurately... suicide bombing.

Don't 'cha love it when bad things happen to people that deserve every bit of it?

Let's repost Jonah Goldberg's points:

'Anti-' doesn't sell

We've all heard the stories, many true, some apocryphal, of soldiers returning home from Vietnam only to be disrespected and shunned by an ungrateful nation. How many were called war criminals or spat upon is as controversial as it is unknowable. But there's one thing we know our troops never experienced. We never filled the movie theaters during wartime with films calling them war criminals, rapists and, figuratively, spitting on them or on their mission.

Are Hollywood's Iraq dramas bombing because...

a) people don't want to hear about Iraq or b) people don't want to hear about Iraq from Hollywood liberals?

...

If there were an Iraq film not made by Hollywood liberals, we might be able to settle the argument.

Lions for Lambs...Slaughtered

Memo to Hollywood…we don’t hate America as much as you do. Want to make some money? Make a movie where Americans are the good guys and the terrorists are the bad guys.
