After rewatching Ken Burns & Lynn Novick's powerful 18 hour reckoning with The Vietnam War, I felt the need to write something on the conflict. Upon reflection I probably jumped in too soon...

In the #Wikipedia article of #StarshipTroopers3Marauder, writer/director #EdwardNeumeier claims the movie was inspired by #TheVietnamWar - NOT the #WarOnTerror. What a load of baloney. Ed clearly didn’t have the balls to admit what he was ACTUALLY satirizing.

Fact you need to know: In Vietnam, we don’t call it the "Vietnam War."
We call it the Resistance War Against America for National Salvation — and that says everything. 🇻🇳

Currently watching, for the second time, a 10 part #PBSAmerica documentary #TheVietnamWar on Sky Documentaries. You can get it on PBS through Prime, too. It's utterly rivetting, uncomprimising and very thorough. It starts with French colonisation in the 1800s & quickly moves to the US war.

Over the semester break, I made a point of rewatching @KenBurns' and @LynnNovick's documentary series #TheVietnamWar. Such a special experience. Thanks @PBS. I've now started rewatching #TheCivilWar. Surely both are prescribed viewing in US schools.

Credo di non aver mai visto un film documentario così ben fatto, equilibrato, profondo, dettagliato e intenso. #Netflix #TheVietnamWar

Did anyone else tune into #TheVietnamWar on @PBS instead of the Emmy's?
