Rambo/Tear Jerker

Rambo is not only about shooting Complete Monsters and Mooks into tiny bits, it's also one of the most tearjerking examples of how really Hell war is. So it deserves a tearjerking page of it's own.


 * Rambo's infamous rant at the end of the first film. It's not only the longest in the series, but also sets up the character for the rest of it. Here's the entire dialog if you want:
 * Rambo: Nothing is over! Nothing! You just don't turn it off! It wasn't my war! You asked me, i didn't asked you. And i did what i had to do to win, but somebody wouldn't let us win. And i come back to the world, and i see all those maggots at the airport, protesting me, spitting. Throwing stuff and calling me a baby killer and all kinds of vile crap. Who are they to protest me for huh?! Who are they?! Unless they've been me and been there, how the hell they know they're jabbing about?!
 * Trautman: It was a bad time for everyone. It's all in the past now.
 * Rambo: FOR YOU! For me civilian life is nothing! In the field we have a code of honour: you watch my back, i watch yours. Back here is nothing!
 * Trautman: You're the last of an elite group. Don't end it like this.
 * Rambo: Back there I could fly a gunship, I could drive a tank. I was in charge of million dollars of equipment. Back here I couldn't get a job PARKING CARS! (throws weapon away)
 * Same for the second film:
 * Rambo: I want, what they want, and every guy who came here to spill guts, and give everything he had, WANTS! That our country would love us as much as we love it!


 * ->"Col. Trautman: You're always going to be tearing away at yourself until you come to terms with what you are. Until you come full circle"
