Land of Bad (2024)
Cringeworthy for Vets to Watch
If you read the Wikipedia page on this film, you'll see that the writers actually went through some JTAC training at Ft. Irwin in preparation for this but it certainly doesn't seem like it. They use all the already cliche terminology, (Danger Close for example) at times but other then that its pretty devoid of any other meaning. (Not a single properly called in air mission)
Plus, the "Delta" Team just go bee-bopping thru the jungle like they're looking for a picnic spot.
And the aircraft? F/A 18's that fire AMRAAM missiles at ground targets. BLU-118's, which are bombs, that "fire" like missiles.
Just very cringeworthy all around. I'm being generous with 4 stars.
TMZ Investigates: 9/11: The Fifth Plane (2023)
This is a bit of a stretch.
First off, its TMZ, the ones who can overdramatize a wet fart with the best of them and who also not ask simple questions.
Case in point; The Box-cutters. Tools that are used in all walks of life, including with members of airport ground crews. So. A big part of the show is to build a theory that someone snuck them on (and/or off) the plane as well as an additional plane that was parked nearby (an apparent mistake).
So, when I hear this, the first thing I think of is, why would anyone feel the need to "Sneak" these items on the plane when no other terrorist did that day? Yet TMZ never asks.
Im sure there were things that the crew experienced that were odd that day. But there just isnt enough hard evidence to support their claims
Sensationalism at its finest is all that it was.
