Army recruitment ad at Star Wars showing
Pissed me off. Capitalizing on the masses going to see Revenge of the Sith.

You too can be a stormtrooper.

1. Any boos from the crowd?..
The Star Wars crowd may not be receptive to Unjust Wars.

4. Huge Boos!
Edited on Fri May-20-05 08:55 PM by jzodda
Saw it during the 3:30am screening at the Zigfield in Manhattan, it was sold out with at least 1000 people in attendance. When that ad came on the boos were overwhelming and sustained. It was not for the army though, it was for the National guard.

But I guess people will discount it because they seem to think we NEw Yorkers are from another planet :(
