1. Only if the Military Technical Advisor is Dale Dye
Do I see a war movie, with the exception of FMJ. This looks good, though.

2.  Funny thing about movies that take place in the desert --
the photgraphy often looks gorgeous. Something about the landscape, all that nothingness is very appealing.

4. Kubrick?
You're right. I thought it seemed familiar.

I saw a pre-screening at my university.

The plot centers on an intelligent computer named Gomer Pyle that goes insane and commits a bit of the ol' ultra-violence with an ax against its creators in a large motel.
