Funnily enough, I hated Full Metal Jacket when it came out as I'd seen
production footage showing how Kubrick turned the east end into Vietnam
and
I couldn't suspend my disbelief when I watched it - I've managed it
since
then, but tof course now I play with Samurai Carrots and Bazooka
wielding
Potatoes. Funny world, eh?...

I think this is the one the post is talking about.  I watched it and
enjoyed
it - I was into Hell By Daylight (Jim Webster/Anchluss) then and was
anxious
to get ideas and visualisation, as you do.  Of course, that was before I
found Stargrunt ;-) (Which curiously enough does contain rules for
vegetables...)
