Green Zone film with Matt Damon
Ok so here is the story. Back in 2003 I was in Iraq as part of a small team doing the search for chemical weapons. As you can imagine it was a pretty crazy time and we were all convinced that we would find stockpiles of WMD and get our picture taken and make the news blah blah blah. Obviously that didn't happen. During our search we discovered the intelligence was very bad (very bad intelligence) so we began conducting our own investigation...in a way. It was a very crazy time as you can imagine and my boss, Monty Gonzales, Chief Warrant Officer, was the man searching for the truth.

Anyway 4 years after I got back from Iraq and out of the Military I receive a call from a producer making a film based on those events. They asked me to be an advisor and basically play myself in the film. We filmed in 2008 and the movie is due out March 12. As you can imagine that was a crazy fun experience. Since this is my first Thread I don't know how to imbed video so I will just add some links to a CBS interview that has me in it and the movie trailer.

I would really be interested in peoples take on the subject matter and the film itself. I have been on Chiefs Planet for years and I find that there is a solid mix of good points and good humor.

Did you ask Matt Damon if he really f**ked Sarah Silverman?

FIlm trailer looks decent, and Damon always entertains. I'll probably check it out.

Well it starts off dead on accurate. Then it turns into an action flick where Matt is not quite Jason Bourn but still a bad ass.

So I would say 30% very true 70% total BS

well, that's still around 20% more 'true to life' than most hollywood movies 'based on true events.'

Awesome Brah!

I suspect the film will be top notch. Paul Greengrass is one of the best directors working today.

Of course I say that now. I go to the premiere on the 25th and see the finished product for the first time so expect that number to slide to the left...pun intended.

There will be lots of the shaky camera which is hit and miss with some people. Paul was great to work with, we basically had no script and he would tell us to just react as if it were real and whatever we said was good for him.
