Always interests me how people who have and havent been there respond so differently to that video. 

Best 10 minutes in film history if you ask me! :)

Great performance.

The story goes that Oliver Stone hired Ermey to find him an actor to play the character  of the drill Sgt.  He told Stone that he wanted to play the role in the move but Stone said 'no'.

On the day of casting call Ermey showed up in full uniform and character and Oliver Stone relented and gave him the roll.  ;D

HAPPY Birthday!!!  :)

Did Full Metal Jacket make it on the list of movies on here? Should be.

Saw the title and thought Jay was anouncing a new grandbaby ...  Oh well ... We can keep hoping for the big one tomorrow!
