Looks like he obtained the rights in 2008 and then hasn’t done anything with it since.
Yeah, America hasn’t been the whole world since, like, 1990 or so.

Looking at MovieMogul ’s coding after having quoted the original, it looks like the link is correctly formatted, but when I hover over it the link shows some extra gobbledygook “%3Cbr%20/%3E” at the end. When clicking on it, that gobbledygook stays attached and brings up the error message. Cutting off the “%3Cbr%20/%3E” will refresh the page to the proper blog post. Still, looking at MovieMogul ’s coding, the extra “%3Cbr%20/%3E” doesn’t seem to be there.
Here, I’ll make an attempt at posting the correct link .MovieMogul ! Something I had never given any thought to!
Thanks for figuring that out, bienville . Excellent blog post and a really good insight into Ridley Scott’s films, MovieMogul . I’d pick a nit with BHD in that whenever he had an opportunity to show us wide open spaces, he did: there are numerous awesome shots of “Mogadishu” from helicopter’s vantage points and all of them are in-freaking-credible. But he does seem to favor closed-in situations (they do lend themselves well to tension, after all).

Thank you! And sorry for any confusion (I didn’t actually test the link myself).
