| Saw into the wild Have any of you guys seen into the Wild yet. Pretty decent movie, wasn't crazy about the ending, but that's life. Favorite part was living in alaska in the old Bus. I found that funny because a week before i saw it I almost bought a old school bus somebody had converted into a camp. I think I would have brought something bigger than a .22 to Alaska though.  It was a pretty decent survival oriented movie though for those who haven't seen it yet. |

| I saw the story on the news years ago. Tragic. I guess the guy just went nuts toward the end and wound up starving to death? He did take pictures of himself showing the effects of the starvation. Almost as weird as the Grizzly man that was on the tube not long ago.

| Yeah I ordered it on Movies on Demand because the preview had some cool stuff like hunting and showed him getting away from a grizzly..... the grizzly part never happened in the movie one just looked at him when he was starving and moved on. Waste of 4 dollars. The movie was all emotional and whiney. Last edited by Ruckus; 04-10-2008 at 08:54 PM. Reason: addition |
