Today i came to know the new published accesshollywood dot com that
" A bomb disposal expert who served in the Iraq war plans to sue the makers of “The Hurt Locker,” claiming the film’s lead character is based on him and that they cheated him out of “financial participation in the film.”Attorney Geoffrey Fieger says he plans to file the multimillion-dollar lawsuit in Detroit federal court on behalf of Master Sgt. Jeffry Sarver. He planned a news conference for later Wednesday. ". Heard it? What do you think this man is doing right ? Did he deserve the money he will claim? I need you valuable opinion.

there is no way to prove that the main character is based off of him. There are plenty of guys who go in and do this same stuff day in and day out. He doesn't deserve to win, and if he does, everyone else who has the same job should have the opportunity to do the exact same thing saying it was based off them.

I agree with you Cody, a lot of soldiers in the Army do bomb disposal, so it would not be fair to just give money to one soldier while so many soldiers who risks their life for a safer work area.
