Maybe it won't suck...

Loyal Kraut Commentor-extraordinaire Greg said in one of his psychic moments that:

The one point that all of you have forgotten is that because Pvt Lynch happens to be attractive, and because the US Media has made such a big deal about her rescue. Pvt Lynch is going to make a huge whack o' dough selling her story to Hollywood. Just think a year from now "Saving Private Lynch" will win Mary-Kate or Ashley Olsen their first of many Oscars in the heroic story of how Pvt Lynch took on Saddam Hussein mano-a-mano, and only was injured when he used chemical warfare to temporarily disable her. Luckily the US Special Forces team led by Leo DiCaprio, who also was her high-school sweetheart, rescue her just as Osama Bin Laden is about to take her virginity.

Well today, CNN reports that they will make a TV movie "with or without her family selling her story". Nice way to screw a hero. TV is already crappy enough as it is: how many crappy movies of the week will we have coming out of this war. Well at least it will give all of those unemployed Saddam-decoys something to do...And they won't even have the decency to PAY HER for her own story!

Greg: Considering you've already got a story outline (and you can use Raging Kraut's archive as proof!) I think you should get a manuscript to NBC as quickly as possible before the other weasels get their payday.



I would've thought that Hollywood would've been ALL OVER THIS! They might even produce something watchable...They would at least be able to afford DiCaprio...

Do I smell a left-wing conspiracy to bury the war stories because they don't want to be on-side with the current government?

Could they actually be putting their principles AHEAD of profit?

Has hell truly frozen over?

Has my insanity finally taken over?

  1. As with all made-for-TV movies, the script is secondary. We have to start working on the casting. Here are my preliminary choices:

    Saddam Hussein - Tom Hanks
    Osama Bin Laden - Dennis Hopper
    Specialist Shoshana Johnson - Queen Latifah
    Specialist Edgar Hernandez - Enrique Iglesias
    Sgt James Riley - Tom Berenger
    Specialist Joseph Hudson - Justin Timberlake
    Pvt Patrick Miller - Ashton Kutcher
    Gregory Lynch Sr- Billy Bob Thornton
    Gregory Lynch Jr - Harry Connick Jr
    Mrs Lynch - Saddam Hussein (now that he's had plastic surgery, he should be able to pull it off)

    It'll be a smash hit.

  2. I see Brittany Murphy as Pfc. Jessica Lynch.

    Maybe because I have a crush on her... and Angelina Jolie.

  3. No no no...

    Saddam should be played by Gary Oldman.

    Paying Hanks his fee would result in the director having to film the movie in his son's sandbox because 85% of the budget would have to go to Hanks.

    Rue: you can post here anytime :->

  4. I agree with Gary Oldman playing Saddam... he is the 'king' of esthetic transformation.
