Introduction & Generation Kill

August 31st, 2008 by Mason | Posted in Review, TV |

Howdy, this is my first “entry” I guess you could say. I’m Mason a friend of Fullforce, who is a dick,  gave me the ability to make posts on his blog. I suppose he did this because after he would make a complaint or a valid point I would shoot back with the phrase “Why don’t you blog about it.” So here I am.

Anyway.

If you watched Generation Kill you’d know, it’s finally came to an end. And how sad I am to see it go. This short little series was amazing and probably the best thing on since The Sopranos. If you haven’t watched the I’ll quote IMDB’s Summary and expand on it.

Generation Kill follows  Rolling Stone reporter, embedded with The 1st Recon Marines chronicles his experiences during the first wave of the American-led assault on Baghdad in 2003. That reporter’s name was Evan Wright. After his experiences with the Battalion he returned home to write a book called “Generation Kill.” Which was turned into an HBO Mini-Series.

I can’t really put the show entirely into words due to the amount of epic that it spews.  The ending really left me wanting more, not so much wanting more of an ending but more of the show. I wanted to hear more about these Marines and their lives. I wanted to hear more of their banter and how they adapt to eachother.

I can’t say much more except if you haven’t seen it you need to.
