I feel for you bro it is a rough spot to be in - cant stand the pain and cant stand the dope but need the dope to kill the pain enough to live. As another person that lives in some pain due to injuries I feel for you and wish you the best. I believe that someone has the right to look for the best solution to their pain. If that includes a little (or a lot) medicinal herb to cut back on the pain and opiates - than so be it. My mother in law has lupus and she makes her special "herbal" tea that we have to make sure no body gets into. When we visit in LA we have to make sure grandma's tea is well marked. Of course watching my mother-in-law and wife (wife is in the early stages of lupus) get basted was hysterical!

Thanks Scourge,that means alot coming from you man.I am very sorry about your wife and Mom's Lupus.A very good friend of mine I chat w/online from Austraila has it too.I know what you are saying about the pain and I am glad you said what you did and don't look down on me like I am weak or a loser.Thanks alot my SF buddy.

One small favor?If I ever get the chance to meet you you have gotta show me a few things as I am pretty proficient w/blades and aguns but nowhere near the pro that you are ok?I can teach you to play the guitar in exchange ok?LOL!Oh yeah,I would be happy to mail you a CD of my record that was released worldwide.Any chance you like the heavier music at all???(Pantera/Metallica)

 

The following is my list that i think would make a good cast for a live action deathlands film:

Ryan Cawdor:    Hugh Jackman
Dean Cawdor:   Open to Suggestions
Krysty Wroth:    Rachel Lutrell
JB Dix:               Micheal Shanks or Quentin Tarantino
Mildred Wyeth:  Open to Suggestions
Jak Lauren:        Tom Felton
Doc Tanner:       Hugh Laurie
The Trader:        Kris Kristofferson or Harvey Keitel

I actually love to teach - and have studied knife fighting in Krav Maga and karate. One of my favorite tours of duty was teaching Ranger school hand to hand combat. We are one of the few SF units other than the Commandos and Delta that teach hand to hand to all soldiers. I can't carry a tune in a bucket and never had much luck with instruments. I am very ecletic in my music and although I listen to mostly country, I love heavy metal. Metallica is one of my favorite as well as SOAD. When you spend 15 months in the desert it seems that no matter how many gigs of music is loaded on your MP3 you are going to crave new music. In our Stryker (and our CSV before) we hot wired the interior communication system to either a CD or MP3 player to play music while we roll along. Although about the only thing I can not listen to is rap, I have listened to alot of black music as the black brothers get to play thier music as well. After a while we listened to anything that was new. I am always open to new music. I bet if they make a new DL movie it will probably be set to heavy metal or hard rock.

Good taste in music too bro.Metallica is the reason I had long hair from age 14 to age 27 and the first cassete I ever bought was Metallica "Master Of Puppets"in 1986!I think you mean S.O.D.(Storm Troopers of Death)?

Well I can always teach you how to use the Nuinchukas instead of the guitar.lol!!!I have some good new's man.That SA tour you said I need to do may just actually become a reality!I have been in e-mail contact with the owner and pres.of my old record label(Leviathan)and he says if I get a new vocalist(he loves music which I write 100%,but hates the singer)He will be interested in signing my band America's Nightmare to a full worldwide recording/promo/and distribution deal!(that name is not anti-USA in any way bro,it is just a play on how the American Dream goes wrong alot is all)
BTW NHDoucette,those are all excellent picks for the movie.

I grew up on Willy & the Stones. My dad listens to old country and my momma listens to rock.In high school I listened to Dio, AC/DC, Iron Maiden, and really liked the Ramones and some punk like the Circle Jerks. First album I bought was Aerosmith Toys in the Attic on 8 track!! SOAD is for System of a Down - one of my kids in my 3rd squad is a SOAD freak and we listen to quite a bit of their music when his turn is up to load the MP3/CD player. A lot of the termas play a lot of American heavy metal - last time I was down in Ipanema (my uncle has a friend owns a condo there) they were still playing American grunge too!! It is a rough place to be and want to remain faithful - thank god I was still single then!!

With the exception of the Circle Jerks I listen to every band you just named bro.I like System of a Down too.I grew up on Old Metallica/Dio.Maiden/Motley Crue.Pantera  and S/O/D/.as well as Led Zeppelin andBlack Sabbath.I love the Ramones and The stones as well as Creedence too man!

Ozzie will always be one of my favorite musicians. It was awsome seeing him at Ozfest. Talk about the poster child for why you do not do hard drugs. While I bet a movie such as we are discussing will have some kind of rock music score, one of the best things about the latest mediocre Iron Man movie was the Black Sabbath song, of course "Iron Man."

Mediocre?I though IM rocked!

I agree though that Iron Man by Sabbath made that movie!!!

I thaught IM was OK - but since I have been reading it since IM looked like a gray walking pot-bellied stove, maybe I was expecting too much. I still have some of my old Magalogs that featured IM in some of his earliest incarnations. I do not think there was really any other song more fitting than that when he comes out of the cave. Another turkey of a movie was the Dukes of Hazard remake. Only good things were Jessica Simpson' ass, the General Lee, and the music which was mostly old AC/DC.

Yeah,I been reading IM since about 1980.
That Dukes Of Hazzard movie was a turd.Jessica Simpson normally is not my type(blonde an all)but I will make an exception for her ass and boobs.haha

I think Hugh Jackman is perfect for Ryan,Ali Larter(Res Evil 3)for Krysty,
Any sexy curvaceous black woman for Mildred (Vivica A Fox)
Ian Mckellan (X-Men L.O.T.R.'s) as Doc Tanner?
J.B.???
Jak???

Is this topic dead?

Seems interesting to me.Any thoughts on my picks?

I am not sure about it being dead - but maybe we flogged this dead equine already?

Your picks were great - Ms Fox is hot!!!

I would still rather see some crusty old dude like Sam Elliot play JB rather than somebody like Bruce Willis.

Oh no, you sound like an old timer with a comment like that.

Be careful you don't get flamed for daring to say a thread has been played out...

Since three of the four were penned by the same (multiple times) banned poster why should they bother?

Yeah, please try to avoid it in future.  It makes my head hurt. 

I shall don my asbestos underwear but do not mind getting reminded that some people do not read all the previous posts. Would be nice if someone did read all the previous posts in every thread - might ease some misconceptions.

Not sure if we even have a chance of seeing another one of these even on the SciFi channel or direct to DVD.

I understand the last one did not do so well, and doubt that SciFi channel would want to invest in another likely low-return show when they are looking for a replacement to BSG which was hugely popular.

Despite our enjoyment of the various DL books, they are not huge sellers with large (enough) following unlike Nora Roberts, Stephen King, James Patterson, etc.

I should have remembered a lesson I learned a long time back...

Americans just fail to understand English humour no matter how simple or complex it is !
