1 word: EPIC. I don't want to spoil anything, but it was EPIC.

Everything went down in quality after PVT Pyle went insane at the end of training. Everything before was hilarious.

And yes twice more.

I must admit, I was very bored with Full Metal Jacket after the Boot Camp scenes.

Yeah, I still don't understand why he went insane. It was still a good movie overall.

The green slime. I watch it every month :D

Because he was a fat forget and couldn't do anything for himself.

I loving love this movie to death, I like the boot camp parts.

He couldn't handle training and was a fat forget and couldn't do anything for himself. So he decided that he was better off just killing himself than lagging the squad behind in real combat. This movie was actually an anti-war movie.

Why'd he try to kill Joker? Why'd he kill the drill sergeant? Why not just shoot himself then and there?

I'm really hoping you read my post first, because if you didn't...

we might be BROTATOES

He hated the drill sergeant because he PT'd him a lot.

*cough* wha'bout Joker? He aimed the gun at him and he was like "Pyle, chill out" or something, and he put the gun down. Then picked it back up and shot himself.

Ahhh, what a great movie! You didn't by any chance get the inspiration to watch the movie from the LTA movie club? :P
Anyways, if you want to watch more epic movies from the Vietnam war, I strongly suggest:
Platoon (especially this one)
Apocalypse Now

Full Metal Jacket is kinda like two movies in one. The first half is about the bootcamp, which is kinda funny. The second half is about the war itself, which is much more serious and sad. I like both parts.

Haven't watched it. Should I? What is it about and is it any good?

Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?
