[arrivedp]

This is what the novel and original movie was about the tv series was just a bunch of propaganda promoting the glories of US imperialism,

[1skullduggery]

although the earlier episodes of the series were more true to the movie, i actually enjoyed the middle/later years more; i.e. honeycutt, winchester & potter, vs. blake, mcentyre and burns. and when the new members were each introduced, those episodes were extremely well done. so many times when a series is made based off of a movie, it's very good in beginning, but gets very jaded after a while. just look at 'happy days'. based off of 'american graffiti', that show became very horrible, later.

[justsillyme333]

I love the show,what i find funny is they did a tv show about a war that lasted 3 years,but the show was on for 11,lol. But all in all,it was a fantastic show, I wasnt to keen on the Alan Alda years,I realize he was in the entire series,but after about the 5th season, it got all serious and there was no laugh track. They still cracked jokes all the time but there was no audience

[avq5]

this movie is wack.. who wants a movie about two guys playin golf in the vietnom war

[justsillyme333]

@avq5 it was the Korean war dumbass



[opisthobranch]

@justsillyme333 It was about the Korean War only in name, but the themes and commentary were more about the Vietnam War.

[opisthobranch]

@justsillyme333 Also, nothing in the set or backdrop resembled Korea at all.

[opisthobranch]

@justsillyme333 It was too politically sensitive to actually call it Vietnam at the time.

[MyYouyou2]

Wait a minute, is this a comedy about sexual harassment in the workplace?

[ILoveCurves88]

@ charllotte84 Thanks for posting this, but just FYI, if you read the book or see a certain scene in the movie, N those his name was just Hawkeye Pierce. The Benjamin Franklin part was only in the series...

[MrMadman1112]

Damn I am 13 and I like it :D I have all 11 Seasons ^^ (German)

[Peter4567891]

One of the great movies of all time

This classic's great laughs will M.A.S.H. (Make Anyone Ahit Himself).

how the motion picture catch-22 fell into oblivion compared to this is beyond me

[littledebbie187]

HAPPY 76TH BIRTHDAY, DONALD SUTHERLAND, AND THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE!!!

[tissmiss92]

what came first? the movie, or the tv show?

[hobbes365]

@tissmiss92 The movie.

[winnetouch]

The movie is far more dark humored than the series. The series is dark humored too but nowhere near as much as the series. I like the movie even though I don't have the slightest idea of how things were during the times of the korean or vietnam war. I like the series a lot as well. Too bad my favorite character left the show :P Radar was awesome :D.

[TheDarthLokus]

don't like the movie, love the tv show...hotlips from the movie looks way better though^^

[NJpanther05]

Both are great for different reasons. MASH the movie could not be a tv show, because of the need for more dominate characters and a story to carry for years and not just for two hours The television show best adapted the movie for the small screen. However, it did not have the magic for a movie. Jut look at the TNG movies.

[MysticalSelah]

Oh, I remember this! God, hotlips was ditzier in the movie! I prefer her lol

[phreed1]

Goddamn Army!

[scorpietta]

Having seen both the movie and the series, I respect both, but prefer the movie. It delivers the message as clearly as the show. Richard Hooker was the name used by the army surgeon who wrote the book and served in Korea. He preferred the movie and that says something to me.

[MeatballsMarlowe]

This trailer gives away too much of the movie!

[first40]

movie was made in 1969, released in 1970. you had the vietnam war, hippies, drugs, sex..just a culture change. this movie reflects all of that even though this was suppose to be korean war. the movie was a huge success, so much so that a tv show was based of it in 1972 and the rest is history. Sutherland and Gould made quite an impression back then as hawkeye and trapper

[Vash1286]

they said tits in a trailer?!?!?!

[Alisaman2010]

I think Alan Alda is a better Pierce

But i`m very fond of this story

[landrykkb]

The late Robert Altman had said he made it a point to omit any references to the Korean War,or that it was even set in Korea out because he wanted the viewers to subconsciously connect it to the then-Vietnam War.

[TheMugsy71]

Elliot Gould is one hot Jew!!!

[vincentpricesnephew]

keep the SWAMP alive!

[jrice73]

AWESOME! 

[RaleighDawlishRaynar]

I tried the TV series but lost it after two episodes. Nice to see a few people I had almost forgotten. He was drafted! lol

Subject: Towards a modern monarchy

Anagram: Come On Down - try Radar M.A.S.H

[vincentpricesnephew]

@RaleighDawlishRaynar because the first couple of episodes were based on chapters in the book they didn't use in the movie

[superjysk]

tv theme song just fits to the mash...song's got a message...for everyday listening...and watching....

[kathygreentea]

@superjysk Dude, are you okay? I know the song, and suicide is not the answer - just hope you are ok... yes it is a great song, but if that is what you were referring to, there is hope, too. Respectfully, kg

[crusader8463]

As someone who literally just got done watching all 11 seasons of the TV series, this looks like some stupid parody trying to insult the TV series. The TV series was witty and intelligent, where this just uses tits and foul language in it's place. Don't get me wrong some of my favorite shows do that, but to me MASH was on a level above this.

[AtarahDerek]

@crusader8463 Judging from this trailer, I agree that the series was better than the movie, even if the movie did follow the book more closely. The only actor they kept from the movie was Gary Burghoff, simply because no one can play Radar like he can.

[boston1925]

@crusader8463 Do you realize this is a clip of the movie which was based on the book which spawned the TV show ? Obviously the TV version had to be cleaned up.

Salute to the late great Director Robert Altman for directing this movie - without it, we would never have had the Emmy Award winning TV series.

[vincentpricesnephew]

@crusader8463 this was from the movie that was made before the TV show. i am sick of people saying the show is better than the movie because the characters evolved and Alan Alda was so "sensitive". the movie is what it is and the show is what it is. but just remember it was all based on a novel by Richard Hooker which is better than both

[divisioneight]

"Hotlips, you incredible nincompoop, it's the end of the quarter!"

Henry Blake

[tjduck85]

What is the name of the song that starts at 2:21?

[bgarris1]

@tjduck85 Suicide is Painless is the name of the song.

[tjduck85]

@bgarris1 Actually I have realized that the song is called "Tokyo Shoe Shine Boy." 

[bgarris1]

@tjduck85 I didn't know that.

[dnasty312]

I like the movie more!

[Shareallicu]

This isn't the MASH I know... it looks like smute...lol

[markblaze10]

The show and the film are two different people's interpretation of the things that went on in the 4077th, there is no point comparing them, if you don't like one of them there is nothing wrong with that. They are two slightly different styles.

[markblaze10]

None of the music or the special effects, just good old script and actors.

[Tawntee321]

1 of the best movies EVER made, right up there with The Godfather and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

[Tuber71You]

Love this Movie

[SirHawkeyeWho]

"This isn't a hospital, it's an insane assylum!"

"Well what's the matter with her today?"

"My god! They've shot him!"

One of my all time favourite films (and the TV show is my favourite show of all time.) Apparently Hooker didn't like Alan Alda's verison of Hawkeye as he found him too left wing. The book is fab, deffintely worth a read.

Altman was a genius (RIP)

[Captmiloman]

Wouldnt surprise me if either CBS or FX does a revival. I mean were getting a Hawaii Five 0 update.

[SapphireCrusader]

I wouldn't mind a remake of this, one that could focus on issues in either Iraq or Afghanistan. If they got the formula right, it would be awesome!

[vigo894]

@SapphireCrusader= Would you want a tv series to go with it afterwards? I would watcth them both.

[siennacollege]

he was drafted!! Haha that's funny!!

[max42777]

actors dont look the same as i seen

[SumthinMaybe]

lol best part of the trailer was "MY GOD THEY SHOT HIM!!!" "Hot Lips, your incredible nincompoop is at the end of the quarter."

[boyinthedrain]

I know every overlapped line in this movie

[Hilkka52]

Kids, you don´t have a clue, do ya? This was in the 70´s, a proclamation AGAINST war - and here we are today 40 years later - still fighting! For what? Not for you and me! Not for freedom! It´s all about money! Has always been will always be! You and me, we can enjoy the film - but can we enjoy freedom?

[redpopripple]

TV series is much better than the movie. I suspect a remake of the movie or in 15 years a spin off set in Iraq.

[TheBunnyist]

@redpopripple I certainly hope NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[charlyhorse7636]

i like the series better

[Maddiegirlh67]

my mum loved this show when she was a kid and my dad

[HUSKY57887]

@zenangel924 "Tokyo Shoeshine Boy"

[DeliahTheDane]

LOL, I watched this at Christmas with my family!

[Hygge234]

what is this it's not mash

[ysbaddaden2003]

@Hygge234

It's the movie the lousy TV show was based on

And the movie was closer to the book by Richard Hooker....

[HUSKY57887]

@Hygge234 Of course it's M*A*S*H*;what do you think it is?

[claudiall]

@Hygge234 This is the movie on which they based the show, dummy.

[Hygge234]

@claudiall I know I download it for some weeks ago

[sodapop380]

when i first heard of his name i was thinking of how it might be kiefer sutherlands dad since they really looked a like and of course the last name and i waz right

[MrKawolsky]

hot lips.......lol

[jasdav182]

when i first saw this i fell off the sofa with laughter at the "my god they shot him" line during the football match

[Conman436]

Movie is better than show, and Sutherland is a better hawkeye

[TheMASH1972]

give me at least one nurse , who knows how to work in close without getting her tits in my way , so funny !

[FDG917]

I prefer Alan Alda as "Hawkeye" Pierce.

[I4gotmyMANTRA]

@FDG917

Sutherland is closer to the book. But I love the version in my head from the novel better than either.

[falconbird9]

The show is better then that bs

[OkiePackerFan10]

Corabeth as one of the Old Nurses?

[GreedLin]

The show was a HELL of a lot better then the movie, the movie is so boring I fall asleep when I try to watch it.

[whoamanpower]

@GreedLin how can you call it boring!!!! its deeply cerebral humor, dark, eerily, human behaviours that are funny as hell!!!

[GreedLin]

@whoamanpower I just found it to be the one of the worse movies I have ever seen. Long, boring, but at least it was better then the movie 'Worlds Best Dad'

[etex1000]

JHC- I'm old.

[ShastaPacificRoad]

Besides Tokyo Shoe Shine Boy, does anyone know the titles of the other songs(NOT Suicide is Painless!) in the movie? Remember listening to several of the songs from the movie over Armed Forces Radio when I was in the RoK but had other things to keep me occupied!!!!

[tifflover]

Roger Bowen played Henry in the film..Maclean Srevenson played Henry on the tv show..They both died a day apart from heart attacks...

[SuperRocketProoYEAH9]

this is BAD! Alan Alda & co was soooo mush better then this!

[johnandhisdog]

Onward Christian soldiers!

[dahsuerk]

Radar the only actor in the TV show.

[Phil0267]

This is true dahsuerk. Gary Burghoff was the only actor who was in both MASH the movie and the TV show as well.

[bf2dudes]

got to love the football players smoking pot .... priceless

[armyrocks24]

way different ( language content) from the series

[FunsterProductions]

i love this show and you can still see it on history

[jake5680]

Great show, I watch it every Sunday. ( I think it's every sunday.. )

[AL52Dragon]

But seeing Donald Sutherlands works, he is also a phenomonal actor.

[AL52Dragon]

Alan Alda was overall a better Hawkeye, getting the perfect image of a slighty aging cynical, humorous surgical genius only in the Army because they dragged him there kicking and screaming.

[mistermattmoose]

The book was bland, the movie rocked and the series was solid until Burns was replaced with Winchester and Hot Lips became a human being.

[SiliconBong]

There were times when Winchester become a human being, though they were few and far between.

[WilliamRowlett]

@mistermattmoose the show was never as funny as when Henry Blake, Trapper John & Frank Burns were there. Then after Burns left, it was just not funny at all.

[quicksketcher]

The series was only good for about a year. After that it lost the spirit of the movie and became a bunch of preachy sentimental crap. For those of you that think the movie was too dark, there was a war going on. If you want LaLa land, go watch a Doris Day movie.

[fenderkid6]

was that "flies in his eyes" a reference to catch 22?

[Shino8678]

I've read the book & seen the movie and the TV show and let me tell you they funny especialy the TV show.

[MrJeff1962]

I never saw the movie but what I didnt like about the tv show was that it took 70s people and put them in a 50s setting.

[BeatsonsGirl84]

I was excited to see this movie but ended up being disappointed with it. There were too many dark scenes (literally, not figuratively) and the characters were portrayed differently from the TV series (ie Hawkeye was married, Frank was a deeply religious man). The ending was too abrupt as well. I know many people love this movie but I prefer the series.

[MayrN]

I prefer the series too

[needles1987]

One of the greatest films of the 70s.

[TheMakeUpFXDude]

I havent seen the movie, l love the TV show but i wanna see the movie :-)

[zarkbot88]

I seriously want to be like Hawkeye (or Trapper John) after seeing this.

[predlycon]

what about duke?

[bagpiper35]

This fils is so great

The expression liberty in USA is in center of the system.

So, me, a french guy, I say VIVA USA

[findjinn]

I never laughed at the show. This movie, however, is friggin' funny.

[ZePHANT0M]

OH, FRANK - kiss my HOT LIPS!!!!

And she wasn't talking about the ones on her face, either.

[gaiusfrakinbaltar]

is song in this version (2:07-2:14) on net?

[Georgespot]

The movie was one of the reasons why I'm join the army:) THX Hawkeye:)))

[luigipesce]

Don't you use olives?

[Bodie007]

@luigipesce IMHO Alan Alda had no idea how to play Hawkeye Pierce. The whole TV show was rubbish.

[recoverfromhydro]

@Bodie007 You'er nuts;it was the best show on t.v.,ever.

[Smartboy8877]

@Bodie007

Then why did it last for over a decade?

[Bodie007]

@Smartboy8877 Simple. A lot of people disagree with me.

[Smartboy8877]

@Bodie007

I have also interacted with people who felt that "Happy Days" did not deserve to last close to eleven years and that "Facts of Life" did not deserve to last anywhere near nine! Oh well!

[bampop]

@Bodie007 Indeedy... no match for the real Pros from Dover - Donald Sutherland and Elliot Gould

[dsblain]

Robert Altman said in an interview which can be seen if you get the 2 disc DVD, that he hated the TV show. He even called Alan Alda Alan Albert.

[jamesjohnking]

Although I still like the show, it really can't compare to the movie which had a realism the TV series lacked. Plus better actors. Trapper was a lot less of a sidekick, too, which was nice. Had his character in the show been more like it was in the book and movie, Wayne Rogers might not have left.

[OZITOMAE]

i didnt like the first movie so much it was quite stupid i think but the series and the last movie was complete fantastic GREAT as

[globallandrovers]

i love the tv series, but the books were best, the original mash and mash goes to maine, which were the only mash books written by the the original author who incidentally didn't like the tv show!

[DietrichHamilton]

"my LIPS ARE HOT!!!,  kiss my HOT LIPS!!!

[koolcoal]

Radar = <3

[wlhardy]

One of the funniest movies ever! Couldn't stand the TV show. Hawkeye will always be Donald Sutherland, Trapper will always be Elliott Gould, loved Sally Kellerman, Roger Bowen, Tom Skerritt. A classic!

[kingaurthur13]

actually its the other way alan alda is a way better actor

[SSPoseidon846]

yeah, i felt donald sutherland didnt suit the part, however i did think it was a good movie.

[calamagrostis88]

Much better than the TV show which got too sappy. This had everything that they could not do on TV, sex, drugs, and Japanese pop music.

[ramblinhaze]

While I love the movie...the show was AMAZING>

[Juliaflo]

Next year marks the 40th (omigosh) anniversary of the movie M*A*S*H.

[bampop]

Don't let him kiss you, Hawkeye!

[Bodie007]

@bampop Watch out for your goodies Hawkeye! I don't think Hot Lips satisfied him!

[happylmc]

I never saw any of the movie except for the suicide funeral scene. I have all 11 seasons of teh show on DVD though and I love it!

[jksonny]

. . could have even introduced the film characters as some of the series characters departed, like bringing in Duke when Trapper left or Vollmer when Radar exited. I know some of the secondary film characters, like Spearchucker and Ho Jon, were in some early episodes but they disappeared quickly.

[jksonny]

Big fan of this movie, much better than the series (although the first few years of the TV show were funny). Gould is a great actor and did a lot of good stuff in the seventies. He was a great P. Marlowe. Trapper was my favorite character in the movie and the series.

I wish the film would have left in all the scenes involving Ho Jon's death. I'd still like to see them included but with Altman gone, it's unlikely.

Also, the series should have included more of the film characters. They . . .

[yorricksfriend]

Hotlips you incredible nincompoop thats the end of the quarter

[OoryanoO42]

haha good stuff.
