Before Men Who Stare At Goats became a film, author Jon Ronson ran his real-life paranormal military findings in a documentary series called The Crazy Rulers of the World. Meet the real goat-starers, and compare it to actual film footage.
The Men Who Stare At Goats is about warrior-monks with psychic powers, who call themselves Jedis over and over again. But the movie's structure also echoes the original Star Wars trilogy, and it's full of fun Lucas riffs. Spoilers below...
The Men Who Stare At Goats transports you from the Vietnam War to present-day Iraq, that journey through time succeeds largely thanks to Jeff Bridges and George Clooney. We asked director Grant Heslov how they pulled it off. Minor spoilers...
It's a spoiler-crash! Ed Norton talks Avengers, Milla Jovovich reveals a Resident Evil showdown, and James Marsters shows up in a Caprica ad. Creepy new Doctor Who/Fringe clips! Plus Red Dawn, Ghost Rider, The Box, Supernatural, Smallville, FlashForward and Chuck.
The latest trailer for The Men Who Stare At Goats demonstrates George Clooney's Jedi/ninja skills. Check out his special warrior monk abilities, honed by the U.S. government for secret spy espionage. It's based on a true story!
Now that you've already seen the Jedi mind tactics
The Men Who Stare At Goats features a long-haired drugged-out Jeff Bridges, men trying to run through walls, and hot mustached Clooney-on-goat action. The film, inspired by the military's secret psychic experiments, actually looks pretty hilarious.
