If I thought too hard, I wouldn't be able to enjoy any movies or TV shows or video games, ever.
But the only reason I dwell on "Red Dawn"'s lack of realism is because I'm kinda disturbed how many...

I would guess they adopted the digital pattern after "Battlefield 2" came out. After all, it was only in 2004-05 that our Army adopted the ACU, and whatever we do, the rest of the world follows...

True, but I imagine that if the armorer went to the director and asked, "What guns should the Chicoms have - modernized AKs, or futuristic bullpup Type 95/97s?", the director would probably think to...

Armorers already have the ability to import/purchase/manufacture most types of weaponry that none of us can hope to touch in our lifetimes. If they didn't, we wouldn't get to see the latest FN and...

Hmmm, IMCDB has it down as a real T-72, but I guess you might be right. Still, considering that surplus T-72s can be purchased for as little as $100,000 from Ukraine or other Eastern Bloc countries,...

Makes two of us. As I've said, the original should be left as-is. A remake nowadays is absurd.
Anyway, there are already lots of T-55s, T-62s, T-72s, BMPs, etc. available from American military...

Yeah, for the Russians.
That's one of the mock-up M1s built from a Centurion. And that's kind of weird. Maybe we're supposed to assume that they captured our own equipment and re-painted it...

It is pretty much impossible for them to even contemplate, and none of them do. They didn't during the Cold War, still don't today. I'm sure they'd love to do it, but that's still wishful thinking,...

I was responding only to the part where you implied that the DPRK with Russian and Chinese might be able to invade the U.S.
Also, I don't think Excalibur is completely wrong. The DPRK's...

That's, "neo-con". And given that so many neo-cons are ex-liberals who don't get hot and bothered over the 2nd Amendment, I can't imagine it's a scenario to which they give much thought.
