‘Lone Survivor’ Luttrell on ‘Sniper’ Success: ‘The American Public Knows What They Like’

‘In Hollywood, I don’t think they have an idea if a movie is going to do good or if it’s going to do bad’

LUTTRELL: “I think that they’re really well made and really good movies. I understand people say Hollywood — it’s important not to pigeon hole everybody in Hollywood and -- kind of into that corner. I've made a lot of friends up there in going through all of that. It was a great experience for me and I know that sometimes they get frustrated with it as well. I think when dealing with movies with 'Hurt Locker' you got EOD. You got movies, 'Lone Survivor,' ‘American sniper' - that deals with the black side of the military and the American public is fascinated with that. If you get a chance and especially if it's something that's really -- to get an insight into that, sure, you’re going to watch it. And like I said, they’re really well made. They’re entertaining and keep you focused and the American public knows what they like. Trust me, in Hollywood, I don’t think they have an idea if a movie is going do good or bad. That’s kind of a hope thing but it goes from there."
