What was even funnier was what he used it for :D

Yup, I noticed that, had to explain it to my wife though.

Staid, saw it, think I got it.

I love comic book movies more than I loved the actual comic books as a kid. So my background information is a bit sketchy.
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

I finally caught up and saw it. Other than the final fight scene being too short, it was a good movie. War Machine was badass, but I do miss the original Rhodie. Samuel Jackson looks pretty chubby in this movie.

Two complaints:
#1: A Walther 2000? 5.56? For freaking War Machine? Lame!
#2: Can Hollywood just make it a little less obvious that they hate America and the sooper-evil military-industrial complex?
