Some new movies i came across in the last weeks:
The Marksman
What a dumb movie but Wesley Snipes saves a little and a short display of a F-14
besides a fictional Carrier USS Oakla and wrong military uniform markings.

And i noticed that in National Treasure  they walk around on a Carrier museum with many different planes on deck. Is there such a museum in Washington or New York area?

One of the craziest movies I ever saw was in Dallas, Texas.  "Fanny Hill Meets The Red Baron".  Absolutely nuts.
