We also compare First Blood to #TheIncredibleHulk TV series.\r\nIn the second half we examine the most recent 2008 Rambo film, simply titled, Rambo. This was the first Rambo film to be directed by #SylvesterStallone. In this part of the episode we discuss the excessive violence, the usage of the #BurmeseGenocide and how this film shed some light on a clonflict that had been largely ignored in the west. We also discuss how #Stallone was able to cast genuine #FreedomFighters in this film, why this film was banned in certain countries.\r\nWe also examine the series in general and how Rambo was trapped within the #franchisemachinery of the #1980s.&amp;nbsp;\r\nyou can download, subscribe, rate and review us at&amp;nbsp;iTunes\r\n","author_name":"The Soylent GreenScreen Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/soylentgreenscreen.libsyn.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/3124797\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/0ba629\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/7751377"}
