Over half these guys hadn't really "made it" yet when Black Hawk Down came out or were on the cusp. I swear that every time I watch Black Hawk Down a new actor jumps out at me that I go "Holy shit, I didn't know they were in this movie!"

@cyrusoccult so true OP. I was thinking of this when I watched it again for the 100th time a few weeks ago when I finally saw Tom Hardy

Except for Josh Hartnett. He was approached for the Dark Knight trilogy before Bale, but he turned it down. You don't come back after that.

Black hawks matter.

The guy played by Ewan McGregor molested a child. http://nypost.com/2001/12/18/war-film-hero-is-a-rapist/

Black Hawk Down was my *favorite* war movie growing up. Watch that before any athletic competition and my adrenaline was pumping
KleptoFerret
So many badasses played by great actors

God I wish Jason Isaacs got larger roles. He was so good in Awake and its always so much fun to watch him do his thing. Also hes handsome af

Imagine what that movie would cost if made today with those names!

BHD was a seriously underrated film. The tension with the snipers when they land, tears every time

Tom Hardy used to be skinny. Also, you can see a butt naked Hardy in Band of Brothers, one of the later episodes
god0fthunder
Tiggy was in Black Hawk Down?
Irish1228
He's one of the first to die. He has a longish scene when they're back at the base. I did a double take too

I love the soundtrack and bought it. Orlando Bloom did the movie after shooting LOTR 1st year, but before it came out in theatres.
SwiggityDiggitySwoo
Fun fact: I share a birthday with one of these guys... same day, month, year ... I call him my famous twin ...
SwiggityDiggitySwoo

IRL lol'd
Candyclysm
Lol has gone the way of the word literally. Mis-used so often that we need a new word or saying for what they used to mean.
koopaya
Seriously, I don't know 2/3 of these people. Just edit the descriptions.
pilotperson
You could go to IMDb.com and search for the movie.

Some might call that a LIRL

Worked for a guy that was a medic there when that all happened He took me to see the movie said it was ok but it was alot funner to be there
perseco
Did you kindly remind him that "funner" isn't a word?
Thebearpoker
He probably didn't since "funner" is a word.
OnlySupernaturalWillDo
Neither is "alot"
IEatYourSombrero
How about you alot yourself some time reading the dictionary.
OnlySupernaturalWillDo
Also, in the context you've used it, it's spelled "allot"
RaptorCav
140 chars is a bitch.
clutchthepearls
"We saw the movie, he said..." fixed.
OnlySupernaturalWillDo
Could've said "Worked for a guy who was a military medic there. He took me to see the movie. Said it was ok, but was more fun to be there'
MrDad
"more fun" would be less...
king0fthehill
No it wouldn't. "Funner" - 6 characters. "More fun" - 8.
MrDad
"alot funner" - 11. "more fun" - 8. (get rid of "alot")
FindYourChillMate
you arent great at math are you?
NotThatJoeYouKnow
this band of brothers and saving private ryan have every soon to be big male star that was coming up at the time
wheretonow
I find your lack of commas to be disturbing.
JohnFloorwalker
Ven fucking Diesel was an extra as a random soldier in Saving Private Ryan.
NotThatJoeYouKnow
he was more than a extra. they carry his letter back home between different characters through the movie. now Jimmy Fallon was an extra
throughthoughtthough
Maybe for men you misogynistic person.
lopthe
Thats why he said for men....
NotThatJoeYouKnow
I f you want a historical war movie with women go to the soviet ones like 'enemy at the gates'
art3ry
... and Vin Diesel
TheRealFireFrenzy
"says 3 lines, gets murdered" best role he ever had (JK)
MrFBI
At least he was trying to help. Poorly, but trying.
goonercrazy
Eric bana played a haunting character in black hawk down. War changes you subtle ways.
080080
okay, solid snake
ChrisLucas1
Waaaaar never changes
NotThatJoeYouKnow
mostly because they had huge supporting casts with speaking roles and didn't need any other look than 'could be an American soldier'
litelbrown
This is gonna sound more SJW than I mean it to, but white* American soldier.
NotThatJoeYouKnow
surprisingly few black guys in black hawk down now that I think about it
MrPink1
The people were based off of real people in black hawk down, so did you want them to change their races to be politically correct?
NotThatJoeYouKnow
I would have thought there would be more black guys involved in delta operations in Mogadishu than what was shown
MrPink1
The army was still segregated back then, so no, you would not see African Americans with the Rangers or 101st airborne
litelbrown
I'm not saying the did anything wrong. Just that the parts were only advantages to white male actors. I should have said 1/2
litelbrown
every soon to be white* actor.
VeinyFleshtTrumpet
Commas.. help.
NotThatJoeYouKnow
huge supporting cast with speaking roles
NotThatJoeYouKnow
cast that only needed to look like an American soldier
LuckyWristbands
Cast, only, needed, to, look, like, American, Toby, Kieth,
