30 minutes in and I haven't laughed or smiled once. How was this so well received?
You unironically had to be there. Portraying the military as anything other than white hat tin star cowboys blew boomer’s minds and with Vietnam turning into a clusterfuck it hit at just the right time.
My asshole is full of clam chowder. Would you care for some?
>>218595972Because it was an anti-Vietnam war film disguised as a "wasn't the Korean war useless" film.The book on which the film is based is far less political, and focuses entirely on the various events which happened to the doctors while they were serving
>>218596324>>218596557idk guys, this is marketed as a comedy, but it clearly is not a one
>>218596650watch the show instead
>>218596434>>>/b/
>>218596650Ya, but from 1967-1976, comedies didn't need to be funny. "The Graduate" (1967) is called a comedy, but there is very little funny in it.
>>218596911It's funnier than this tho.
>>218596911Movies didn't even have to be particularly good in that era, just counterculture and edgy. The Graduate, Easy Rider, Bonnie & Clyde, all horseshit but boomers tripping on acid watching them thought they were revolutionary instead of the slop they are.
>>218596798I'll take that as a yes.
>>218595972>30 minutes in and I haven't laughed or smiled once.
>>218595972>AI slop
>>218596798Here, some clams fresh from my assI had some lemon up there just for the fun of it
>>218597001Easy Rider is good tho.
>>218597242Thank you anon, this looks absolutely delicious
>>218595972Well it really isn't meant for vietnamese to watch, buganon.
>>218597507Thanks, it's an adjusted recipe from a south park episode
>>218595972TV show is better than the film
>>218597466No it isn't.
