I wasn't sure what to expect from this book. However, I'm not sure this exactly falls into that realm. Riddick, escaped convict, murderer.Īctually, books and movies who follow the did-not-know-who-he-was-fucking-with trope are some of my absolute favorites. “Did not know who he was fucking with.” - Richard B. “Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'.” - Will Smith MIB, not the originator of this quote. And when they come back from the war, you can't stand the smell of death on them." 68% You tolerate a system that lets others do it for you. So I didn't mind that they just wanted to shoot the hell out of each other. I thought in the book he was just a tad nutso and was tired of anyone pushing him around and he pushed back. The movie is a tad different as Rambo is a poor misunderstood hero.
Now, I do get forced to watch it every time it comes on TV by my fanboy husband but usually I ignore it while I read. One of my teachers at school actually brought in his copy for us to watch one day. My household was super religious so we didn't get to watch movies like this at home. I remember watching this movie when I was in about the seventh grade. He's on his own, doesn't have to follow orders, doesn't have to synchronize himself with other units, so he can move fast, shoot and get out and hide some place else, then do the same all over again."
He's learned patience, so he can hide somewhere and wait out this fight all year if he has to. "He's an expert in guerrilla fighting, he knows how to live off the land, so he doesn't have the problem that you do of bringing up food and supplies for your men.
So then let's call in the state police, national guard and everybody else. That pisses off the sheriff so he and his men go after Rambo. So Rambo goes a bit bat-shit crazy on the town. He also takes offense to Sheriff Teasle wanting to shave his beard and cut his hair. Rambo takes offense to being told that he can't be in town. The local sheriff doesn't like "his kind" being in his town so he takes him and dumps him out at the end of town. Rambo shows up in a small town in Kentucky.
So when my friend 11811 (Eleven) reviewed this book I put in a request for it immediately. I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't know that the movie "First Blood" was based on this book.
