@MatthewModine @FMJDiary Wait... A new Vision Quest project in the works? Can you say where things are at? @MiddleAgedBaby2

My new favorite piece. Thank you @MatthewModine and @FMJDiary.

RIP Tony Stella. The world has lost a true artist. Tony was one of the last bastions of hand-painted movie poster art. He created this amazing FULL METAL JACKET piece shortly before he died. He only shared it with me and a few others. I hope someone puts out a coffee table book of his work someday. 🙏

My uncle, Captain Wylder Modine, was a real B-17 "Flying Fortress" pilot during WWII. After returning from a bombing mission, he got hit by anti-aircraft fire and almost had his right arm taken off. He had his crew bail, but his co-pilot was shot up really bad and couldn’t parachute, so my uncle, with one arm, landed the heavily damaged B-17 in a field behind enemy lines. He was awarded the Air Medal and Purple Heart. I talked with him before making MEMPHIS BELLE in 1989. He gave me his dress uniform to wear in the film and said, “when you put that on, don't disrespect it.”

Check out this great conversation with my friend @vincentdonofrio. Watch now on the official @StanleyKubrick YouTube channel. youtu.be/qwl-qmwUDx8

@Thousandandy @MatthewModine Will check if we have any more DVDs.

@FMJDiary @MatthewModine Unfortunately I only have a DVD player at the moment or I’d jump on that offer.

@Thousandandy @MatthewModine We’re auctioning off a collection that includes a signed DVD. We also have a few signed 4K and Blu-ray copies left. Feel free to DM us if interested.

@MatthewModine @FMJDiary Do you sell signed Full Metal Jacket DVD’s?

Shooting FULL METAL JACKET at Beckton Gas Works in East London. After serving as one of the largest gas plants in the world for over a 100 years, it was scheduled to be demolished in 1985. This is where Kubrick staged his Vietnam war. You can see the palm trees they had shipped in from Spain. Photo by Tony Hayes. Support the @FMJDiary project here: x.com/FMJDiary/statu…

@BravoTwoKilo It’s hard to sum up. It was always changing. So many stories. If you have time, check out my @FMJDiary. It’s all in there. The audiobook (where I read my book) is free if you have an Audible account.

Shooting Boot Camp in 1986. We filmed FULL METAL JACKET backwards: Vietnam in '85 and basic training in '86. Photo by Wayne Clarke.

@JustinMcMillen9 @MatthewModine If you’re still interested in a signed VQ poster, feel free to DM us. Matthew just found a couple in storage. We may auction them off.

@MatthewModine I don’t know how but some day I am going to add a signed Visonquest poster to our home wrestling room. We watch that movie no less than 10-15 x year.

Nice inspirational montage to start your day. 🎶 Bold and the 💪 🎶

@New64GTO @MatthewModine Sorry about that. We have a new auction running now. It ends Monday evening.

@MatthewModine @FMJDiary Crap. Bidding ended. Wish I knew about this before now

REPOST + be following by Monday, April 27 for a chance to win this signed 27x40" theatrical poster for ZERO DAY! I'll pick one winner at random and announce next #ModineMonday. Good luck! And if you want to support the @FMJDiary project and exhibition, you can bid on another signed poster here: ebay.com/itm/2062205808…

@mrleonjones @MatthewModine @ATRightMovies It’s hard to say. Some people like to place their bid at the last minute, but others may do that as well. If you really want it, it might be safer to just place your max bid now.

@FMJDiary @MatthewModine @ATRightMovies do you think its best to wait until the last minute to bid? i need this!!

Behind the scenes on FULL METAL JACKET, the crew film the sniper scene.
