But its necessary to establish his bona fides as a warrior. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 15/05/2010 11:42:15 PM
Modern people don't understand the domestic combat opportunities avialable then, and assume you need to be a foreign combat veteran in order to be a badass. There might also be some notion about needing to pay your dues to king and country before you can rightfully take up arms for your own reasons, and of course, what filmmaker can resist the chance to draw Vietnam & Iraq parallels.

If this is an origin story why is Robin Hood being played by a bloated guy in his late 40's? *NM* - 14/05/2010 06:12:04 PM 545 Views
