As all the other modern wars, the Iraq War affected the American culture. Movies and TV Shows are the ones that are directly affected. The war didn’t only make Hollywood produce more new movies such as: The Kingdom, No End Inside, Redacted, but also, the existing shows like ER are producing episodes in Iraq. Another show in production now is: “Over there” and will show the tour of some US soldiers in Iraq.
Another part of the culture affected by the Iraq war is the gaming industry, and more precisely the Computer Gaming Industry. Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is a game that is considered the best for first person shooting simulation games last year. It gives the user control of one of the soldiers involved in the Iraq War and possibility to “win” the war for the Americans.
Yes, American pop culture is being largely affected by the war in Iraq. According to ABC News, “There are more military shows being made in the next five years than were made in the past 20”
