Flags of Iwo Jima question...   
Hi,

I've got Flags of Our Fathers, and Letters from Iwo Jima
here, does it matter which one I watch first?

According to IMDB, Flags was released first, is that the
way I should go?

Thanks.

It doesn't really matter. There are no interlinking stories or 
characters or actors or anything else.

Personally, I'd watch Flags first, but maybe that's just because it's 
the way I saw them.
Iwo Jima is a harder film to watch. That doesn't make it worse, but you 
might not feel like watching the other for a while afterwards -even 
though they're two completely separate films told in completely 
different styles.

HTH,

  -Kevin.

Thanks Kevin,

that's my sunday evening sorted, I'll go with Flags first.

Now, should I have Pringles, or peanuts?  :-)

Peanuts I'd say, but why not go wild and have both? Live a little! ;)
