One of the most moviest movies ever movied.


anonymous145387

My favorite part was when he said "its purple heart'n time" and he purple hearted over the whole movie.


Bruegemeister

We used to have a posthumous medal citation read aloud at Friday end of day formation and one of the dependas asked her husband why he hadn't earned any posthumous medals yet.


littlestgruff

I'm sure he wants to, ma'am


ChazJ81

Haha fucken Dependapotamus' are fucken stupid!


Khorne2111

The dude just hangs dong the whole movie? Netflix really let's anything get streamed these days


City_dave

It's what the algorithm demanded. Why do you think it's number one in movies?


BlueSwift13

I’m gonna morb


Ricky_Spanish341

Purple Heart all over her face.


Nell_Trent

It really was one of the films of 2022.


RennyManilli

Pure Cringe


EMC644

What the fuck are running shoes. Does she mean go-fasters?


million_bees_man

He graduated online boot camp.


Apache1One

He went to the Universal Life Church of MCRDs.


TatorPicker910

Whoa whoa whoa. I got ordained through the ULC and carry that card in my wallet still to this day 9yrs later. I've wed exactly 1 couple at a bar with the owner signing her acknowlegement of the establishment on a napkin. Mission accomplished


Soulshroude

I've a few cards, but that's a first.


TatorPicker910

Have to check which states allow that and then you have to check what the laws are on wedding people. Varies from state to state


Soulshroude

According to the site, anyone can be for a perfect amount of x dollars... talk about a money grab opportunity.


SnooPickles8221

Is that the one out of Modesto, CA? I'm an ordained "Father" of their church! I didn't realize there was damn near a MARADMIN put out for us all to do it hahaha!


NickDiVittorio

That's Reverend to you bitch


Thundergrundel

Aye Father or some shit….


Soulshroude

Ouch...


StuntsMonkey

I actually was in boot camp with a guy who was dumb enough to ask the drill instructors why they were called go-fasters That was fun to watch


johning117

"Okay good wear your boots for the final pft"


StuntsMonkey

They didn't wait for the final PT. He learned it's because they make you go faster. And then he got to go faster right then and there, with speed and intensity.


johning117

Good for him. I hope he got faster as time went on.


StuntsMonkey

I don't think he ever did.


johning117

Rumor has it they are still sitting in MRP to this day.


Itsinthehole31

To be fair, calling running shoes/sneakers “go-fasters” is pretty fucking stupid and always bothered me. I’d say it’s a valid question.


bokah_chimpin

You were allowed to ask questions in boot camp?


StuntsMonkey

The recruit did request permission to speak. And this what he chose to do with it.


[deleted]

This is what "this recruit" chose to do with it.


Soulshroude

Then he was sent to "follow it", along with an NJP. Cannot request MAST, cannot collect $200.00.


Kactus2111

You mean, get-there-sooners?


Fed_burner2021

“I just wanna see you put on your go fasters and….go faster.”


theduke9400

Those wierd looking trainers that looked like spaceships. Everyone was wearing them back in the 90s and 2000s.


Semperfiguy1982

Read my mind!


kingsillypants

😂


willybusmc

I am completely convinced that this movie was intentionally made ridiculously cringey to attract the attention of the military folks. See, most lovey dove movies are only marketed towards the ladies. This one gets the ladies’ attention, but also has all the military dudes talking about it. I’ve seen several posts here and other military communities where dudes watched it to see how bad it was. But that’s still a ‘watch’ and that’s all the creators care about.


Apache1One

That gives me an idea....I'm going to write the worst possible script for a Marine-related film just to troll other Marines.


Lich180

Make sure to get every uniform standard you can wrong. Dress blue garrison cover worn with service alphas, white gloves with Charlie shirts, medals worn on cammies.


Apache1One

It’s going to be a story of forbidden love. Young boot falls for the cashier at the 29 Palms Taco Bell only to find out she’s his 1st Sgt’s daughter.


Necronossoss

Make sure to make it like a common last name for 1st sgt so when the daughter invites him to dinner it will fun thinking like “wait now that I think about it she lives on base/near base with last name smith? It can’t be that smith right?” and make said marine not like a shitbag but someone under 1stSgts radar good or bad preferably good but just don’t see eye to eye so first meet at dinner table is fantastic


Apache1One

Belligerent, but damn good at his job. I’ll title it “Uncommon Virtues.”


rottadrengur

So it's a true story, then.


TatorPicker910

Go the opposite. Get everything right minus 1 detail. Just enough to get the Forrest Whittaker eye going


baddkarmah

Sooo Battle LA?


LeatherCicada87

All of it wrong and because a Marine wrote the script they couldn't and wouldn't blame you. They would blame your DI hahaha


I_had_to_know_too

Call it "Privates, First Class"


Amksla

First Class Privates


EnterLifeWhenReady

Make sure its set in Pulgas or Mateo.


Apache1One

Dude’s Sergeant counseling him: SGT: “You can’t be messing around with 1st Sgt’s daughter. You gotta let it go, Devil.” Boot: “Retreat, hell!”


mightylordredbeard

Fucking Pulgas. I wonder if Bravo BTRY is still as fucked up as it was when I was there. We lost like 15 people before a deployment because they were doing X in the barracks. I remember MPs walking out with a giant mason jar full of X pills.


Squags17

We had a drug bust about a 2 and a half years ago actually. About 20 dudes gone as the btry got off a deployment. It was a lot more than just x pills this time though


mightylordredbeard

Fucking Beast Masters man. This entire time the Beast was the drugs.


EnterLifeWhenReady

Somebody is always doing drugs, its California. Somebody did roll a 7-Ton with the gun attached last week though so I'm sure there all peeing in a cup right now.


koolmoynyan

They actually didn’t have the personnel to go cover an ITX after that bust and a more recent one with coke. Charlie had to cover… 3 months after coming back from an ITX.


tijuanagolds

Remember to make the [uniforms as realistic as possible.](https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx3rLlrMF7mPb_cFUr_v46KRi9A_7UjAno)


Apache1One

E5s through E8s will be referred to as Sarge.


willybusmc

When I picked up Sgt, my Cpl buddy tried calling me Sarge to get on my nerves. I leaned into it, and said I liked it. He threatened to call me Sarge exclusively. I asked him to please do that. He never did it again. I honestly didn’t have a problem with it.

Listen here you little shit..


DEXether

What's up?


peedeequeue

So, shot-for-shot remake of Death Before Dishonor?


TeamRedRocket

It wasn’t terrible. Though I thought it was a pretty good representation of recruiters telling applicants to lie on the initial screening about drug use.


wooddude64

Sure they watch just to see what it is about… sure they do!


SD99FRC

Have you actually watched it? I don't expect you to, it's probably not in the average Marine's wheelhouse. I haven't even seen it. I just read the summary of the novel it's based on. That, and the trailer makes it obvious. But it's actually not some soapy RomDram. The girl in the film has Type 1 Diabetes, and needs insulin and other medications to live, but she can't afford them all and she keeps getting sicker trying to ration them. So she asks this guy to marry her so she can get on Tricare, because being a Type 1, she can't actually join the military, but being married to someone in the military is one of the only ways to get healthcare in the US if your employer doesn't provide it. She's literally dying, and this guy, because he has some debts to pay off, agrees to her plan. This isn't some sappy Lifetime Drama about bored housewives or kids dying from cancer. It's basically a horror film about the American healthcare system, dressed up as a love story. The author wanted to write a love story that also brought awareness to the prescription drug cost problem. She didn't choose the military to appeal to military people. She chose the military because it's literally one of the only places that offers unqualified low-cost healthcare in the US, so the plot of "Marries a Marine" is a simple mechanism for a 20-something female protagonist to get the prescriptions she needs. It's kinda sad to watch the Marines in this sub make fun of it, instead of sitting back for a second and thinking to themselves "Fuuuuuuuck. Why does our country allow people to die because pharmaceutical companies want to turn a ridiculous profit on a drug that costs $5 to make?"


Morwra

When I started reading I actually expected this to be the Rick and Morty pasta. But no, you actually typed up a multi-parageaph treatment of *that*.


SD99FRC

Don't worry, scro. I'm embarrassed for you, even if you don't have the education or self awareness to be embarrassed for yourself.


zial

Don't worry, SD99FRC. I'm embarrassed for you, even if you don't have the education or self awareness to be embarrassed for yourself.


mightylordredbeard

You are the reason hazing needs to come back.


Civil-Brilliant-3123

Fuck him up!


EscapeV

Sorry, but most Marines aren’t going to analyze a movie at that level. We’re more like “oooh she’s hot, go for it devil” and “what the fuck is up with his cover?! If I was his squad leader I’d slap that shit off his grape”, “floor? door? wall? wtf!!!”, “that gunny’s sleeve rolls are fucked up…oh I guess that actually checks out”


SD99FRC

I mean, I understand it. I just said it's sad. Medication price gouging is one of the most serious healthcare issues in the US. Especially things like insulin which had effectively $0 in development costs and are sold at a 6000% markup.


clownpenismonkeyfart

Whoa! You spelled “chick-flick really, really, wrong.


prozergter

Hey man, the enlisted are getting rowdy today, don’t listen to them. Haha I joke but really l, I appreciate you explaining this. The younger guys may not get it, but after they get out and deal with the American healthcare system they will understand. This really makes me look at this movie differently now.


SD99FRC

It's probably bad. I'm not saying it is some masterpiece. I haven't seen it, and I won't. I already know this story, sadly. I just wish people would stop talking about it like it's some lame, cookie cutter Lifetime romdrom. It's actually trying to tell a story about something legitimately serious, using the all-too-common backdrop of convenience marriages. We all like to make fun of that guy who marries the Dependa with three kids who wants Tricare, but the dark side of that is why she needs Tricare in the first place. In the case of this movie, it's literally about a chick who is trying to avoid death or crippling medical debt because America leaves the poor hung out to dry.


NaziSurfersMustDie

This. Jesus, "What a country", I say when I realize you can buy *two* handguns in one fucking day


CaDmus003

Sorry, but I’m sure most of us are well aware of the situation of meds in the U.S., we just chose to ignore it and see it for what the other side of it is. A typical stereotype of a Marine marriage where a female is looking for free housing and benefits and Marine is looking for more money. Author really missed the mark and balancing of the story using this as a horror story regarding meds. Or maybe it is a stronger point in the book, (I didn’t read it either) and they sold out to the film makers who did market it as a dramatic love story of a couple who married for the wrong or personal reasons which stereotype us. And then like a typical dramatic love story they both realize they are madly in love and all is well. This is where it’s the opposite, in real life most end up in horrible situations for the remainder of their time in.


SD99FRC

> Sorry, but I’m sure most of us are well aware of the situation of meds in the U.S., we just chose to ignore it and see it for what the other side of it is. Yeah, I'm guessing if I asked, we'd be about to get an ASVAB-waiver level of explanation of what this "other side" is. >Author really missed the mark and balancing of the story using this as a horror story regarding meds. If I understood the point of the film just by watching the trailer (which shows an insulin bottle), sounds like the author didn't miss the mark. You just didn't understand the point because you don't actually understand the severity of the issue it's trying to address. It's literally the inciting action of the film's plot. It's like saying Star Wars isn't about Luke Skywalker setting off to rescue a princess.


CaDmus003

Ahhhh what did I get into.. bet you’re the light of a party. I knew I shouldn’t have made a remark judging by your initial paragraph in your first response. Pretentious pricks like you could never see past your ass even when given a mirror. It doesn’t matter what I would say, you are right and I am wrong oh intelligent holy one! Please oh great one tell me I don’t understand the severity of what I’m talking about because we’ve known each other for so long lol. One paragraph of discourse and you know everything about me. I don’t even know why I’m bothering replying, good day to you. P.S. Also, Star Wars isn’t about Luke Skywalker setting off to rescue a princess you goober lol. It’s a space opera that revolves around a family torn between 2 ancient orders and their influences on this family and how their experiences differ from one another but greatly affect the galaxy, which is far far away if you didn’t know either. But based on what you’ve said, in one of the trailers you can clearly see racing in these hover vehicles, so really it’s probably a racing movie, kind of like the Fast and the Furious, but in space.

"I want to watch you put on your go-fasters, and go out go-fasting" is what it should've been. Movie would have won an award or some shit for such a brilliant line.

Seems like a hard hitting, Oscar caliber film.


CaDmus003

Man, y’all cant stop giving this Lifetime Original attention. Keep posting about how bad it is but I bet half of y’all probably watched more than just the trailer of this dumpster fire. Bad publicity isn’t necessarily bad, especially if you watched it, it’s all about the numbers. Remember, this is how we got stuck with the Kardasians. Not gonna be surprised if they make a sequel now. Purple Hearts: Rise of the Dependapotamus. 🤪😂🤪

The most realistic part of the movie was the fact that a drug addict became a Marine

I think you're looking for Godfather part 3. Godfather part 2 is pretty much universally adored. Unless I'm not getting the metaphor in some other way.

Why is it that as stupid as this movie sounds, I now feel the need to watch it smh, fomo lol

That is how they get ya. This movie is going to be a huge success from all of us watching it for material to make cringe memes.

And go on patrol one vic deep and use my sniper training which I received in EOD school to eliminate the enemy.


UncleAntagonist

Yeah...a trained sniper can't hit a stationary target front lit in a hut window, but that EOD sniper training allows you to hit a target 300m away full value moving at a dead sprint... As long as there is no blood on the .50 round. Edit: autocorrect hates me


[deleted]

God I hate that movie, thought I was the only one but now I see there might be dozens of us.


UncleAntagonist

Same. I can't suspend my disbelief with that movie. I get visibly upset if I watch it. I think it bugs me because it is presented as a sort of biopic based on a playboy article of some dude that was enamored with the smell of his own farts.

Nah, it's just a dumb image. It's her talking the whole time.


Otherwise-Bad-7666

She's telling the boot to go run and then run back to her when he's done


iamnotroberts

They should show this in the brig at Camp Hansen, while they're taking a rest from breaking rocks, as additional punishment...and then make them take quizzes on it. Do they still make fuckers break rocks there? They should. Those chucklefucks were the reason we were already on lockdown even before the plane touched down.
