This would almost have been a good movie if they had not included all the bs "behind the scenes" crap with DEVGRU and the CIA. --Charon68 (talk) 22:50, 16 November 2012 (EST)

I thought it was still pretty good personally, if a little inaccurate in the way events played out. We definitely could have done without all that BS between Stunner and Cherry, yeah, but seeing things from the CIA's point of view was necessary, IMO. As much as movies and TV like to make the CIA out as untrustworthy spooks (I'm looking at you, The Unit), they were integral to the success of this raid and countless others we'll probably never know about.

I filled out the page with most of the remaining guns in the movie, though there's probably a few more that are missing. I know a Pakistani ISI operative had a pistol in a shoulder holster that I couldn't ID, for example. I plan on picking this up on DVD next month (if it's available) and will do all the screencapping then, though I wouldn't object if someone went ahead and did so.

Okay... any particular reasoning why this was moved from the main page? Spartan198 (talk) 23:31, 19 December 2012 (EST)

This is just a picture of a firearm. I would understand if the firearm was unusual, but this one is readily identifiable. --Ben41 (talk) 20:00, 20 December 2012 (EST)
How does that exclude it from being included on the main page? The NCIS game page includes several "readily identifiable" weapons (M4, AK, Dragunov, M2HB etc.) found in-game on print material on the main page. Spartan198 (talk) 00:41, 4 January 2013 (EST)
Since this is a live-action film, weapons that were actually used should be placed on the main page. --Ben41 (talk) 05:51, 4 January 2013 (EST)
