    This is gonna ramble.

    At one of my NCOERS while at SWIC my instructor/reviewer said that while he was at school and being reviewed he had been told:

    There are two kinds of people. Army Dudes and Dudes that are in the Army (this was before women could serve in combat).

    He said that like he was told that I wasn’t an Army Dude that I was just a Dude in the Army.

    But he followed up by saying that PsyOp is connecting with people and that’s what we needed: 5-5.

    I went off on this tangent to say that there are Movie Dudes and there are Dudes that Make Movies.

    George Lucas, Steven Spielberg even Tom fucking Cruise are Movie Guys.

    That is who they are. They love this shit and it is part of their identity.

    But a lot of folks in Hollywood are just dudes making movies IMO.

    Now to be clear I did a good fucking job and had the largest increase in local Shura participation in all of Afghanistan while there.

    I’m not saying I or anyone doesn’t care.

    All I am saying is that there is a difference between workers (even very skilled workers) and folks that make their identity their work.

    Just recently picked up Predator 1 on 4k. It was leaps and bounds above my blue ray. That film will never be crystal clear because of how it was shot, but the characters were so life like you could see details that wasnt visible before. Its hands down the best its ever looked.
