Dunkirk

[Sir Slash]

I for one, do not get to celebrate my maleness nearly enough. Once in a while I get to wave it around in somebody's face briefly until my wife tells me to knock it off. Jealousy is an ugly thing.

I do wish the movie had made a better effort to show the courage and determination of the brave Allied soldiers at Dunkirk instead of the more prevalent desperate attempts to escape the beach and get back home. My 2 cents.

The rear-guard fought a bitter battle - and paid the price.

What about that brave lady seen standing on the bow of the little boat in a dress?

^OMG STFU already.

Not you, Des. Whoever that quote is from above. I can't take it anymore.

[Destraex]

I agree Gus. It's like reverse discrimination. Like all maleness must be burned in order for the female master race to rule.
The propaganda machine in hollywood is strong, so a movie that is actually close to historically accurate with no real female leads needs to be shut down :P... because females used to rule and males were just slaves in Celtic times apparently .... everything was fair then.

Before that, when they were allowed to smoke in public!

[Gusington]

And before that, when they weren't busy bringing me sandwiches and beer, 'talking' amongst themeselves.

As I recall, there were some women nurses celebrating their femaleness by spreading jam on bread for the troopers on board the Hospital ship. Does that still count as maleness because they were doing it FOR men?  :P

People suck.  Everybody has a complaint about something.  Here is mine; can't even make an historically accurate movie anymore without someone trashing it.

Was it jam or marmalade? Makes a difference.

[Sir Slash]

Celebrating my maleness, I'll say the soldiers didn't care. Probably more interested in the 'spread' part.

[bob48]

Jam. Or, in my Dad's case, corned beef and a mug of tea.
