I don't know how credible this is, but...

announcement is old, youd expect them to have made have made a follow up by now. Now, will the movies be based on the books or actually based on the unit? Id want the movie to follow same characters.

News to me. Yes, bring back the Unit Dennis.

I'm not quite so enthused. I liked the first few seasons of "The Unit", but that show definitely ran out of steam a long time ago. Even with all the cool weapons that they had, I wasn't too surprised when its ratings dropped in the last season.

I remember when I had an epiphany about military-themed shows: I think they're pretty much a lose-lose scenario for any network.

It's because the last scene, they tried to be like other military shows. Give the guys with guns with a lot of crap on them and have their pistol shots take a guy on when it's clearly out of pistol range.

100 yard kimber shots instead of aimed rifle fire and bad guys falling (even wearing body armor) to a hit in the chest instantly. 24 went downhill like this too.

Don't you know? Bulletproof vests don't work when bad guys wear them because bullet proof vests love 'merica lol

That belongs in the Law of guns in movies

No, that's not what I meant. What I meant is that shows like "The Unit" are targeted mostly at teenage and 20-something guys who are into guns and the military. The problem is that these days, if you're competing for the attention of that demographic, you're competing against military-themed FPS games. It's not at all difficult to see who wins in that competition.
