Rambo: First Blood pt. II

No matter how many times I see any of his movies, I will still like watching First Blood and Rambo: First Blood: Pt. II. Despite the violence, I think these movies are good

Rambo: First Blood pt. II

-There was an alternate take of the ending scene. This is the scene where Rambo says "I want, what they want, and every other guy who came over here and spilled his guts and gave everything he had, wants! For our country to love us as much as we love it! That's what I want!" Rambo cried as he told this to Trautman

Trautman: John where are you going?
Rambo: I don't know.
Trautman: You'll get a second medal of honor for this
[Rambo looks over at the rescued POWs]
Rambo: You should give it to them. They deserve it more
Trautman: You don't belong here, why don't you come back with me?
Rambo: Back to what? My friends died here, and a piece of me did too.
Trautman: The war, the whole conflict may have been wrong, but damn it, don't hate your country for it.
Rambo: Hate? I'd die for it.
Trautman: Then what is it you want?
Rambo: I want, what they want, and every other guy who came over here and spilled his guts and gave everything he had, wants! For our country to love us as much as we love it! That's what I want!
Trautman: How will you live, John?
Rambo: Day by day
