  • @RATMagainstbush8 Were you in EOD?

  • hundreds of thousands of us troops have been to iraq..... its just a coincidence, im sure there probably another 10 others dudes somewhere in the us army who have even more similar details to the hurtlocker dude.

  • This guy just wants some free money, clearly. They just said the character is a blonde haired guy with blue eyes from a trailer park in Tennessee. This guy's from a trailer park in WEST VIRGINIA. Totally different state. How is that representing "him"? The movie was made cheaply - that's not because of this guy. It will make hundreds of millions worldwide - it wasn't this guy's idea to make it. How does he think he deserves money? He wants money from another's work? Shameful soldier.

  • Wow. he got banned from oscar....

  • I doubt if the resemblance is the only premise of the lawsuit.

  • umm how would typing slow matter? wouldnt it depend on the speed that he reads it???? O_o just saying. Oh and there are multiple people in the world that fit that description, same with many other movies. How does he know that the movie was based on him?

  • My dad was in vietnam. He has brown hair. And brown eyes. Therefore- he should sue the makers of platoon.

  • Go collect your social security checks asshole, you're a dubmass who doesn't get a clue.

  • 0:33 HE'S TEH JUGGERNAUT!!!!1

  • entirely coincidental. what a money grubber.
