Thanks for sharing that...but I looked around and I like this one better. Well, at least the ending.

I used to know these guys... no really. I had them on my friends list until my account was removed due to "copyright infringement". A two-second clip of Family Guy is NOT copyright infringement...

What is the deal with that. It's a whole movie and no trouble?

The best review I saw was "First half fo Titanic meets the last half of Tora Tora Tora."

:lol:

Someone needs to do an update of Midway.

Steven Spielberg. That's who needs to direct a new Midway. It wasn't that bad of a film. Had a lot of good and vintage footage from actual dogfights during the war in the Pacific Theatre. Maybe a 6.5 or a 7/10.

I think that someone needs to make a film about the Wilhelm Gustloff's sinking. It's political, has huge potential levels, and would possibly make Titanic look like a finch to a... tropical parrot...?

At least Tora Tora Tora had some basis in historical fact despite it's many flaws.

I should imagine that would be viewed as offensive to the Russian Government.

Not that I'm disagreeing personally mind you http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/181...kbigsw1yo4.gif

The Midway film had many inaccuracies especially with the footage though I guess they had to make do with what they had at the time. With modern CGi they could do it just right.

I liked Tora Tora Tora, though could someone detail the flaws in it.

Pearl Harbour
 

One of my many little nitpicks about that movie that I didn't see mentioned here - the scene during the attack in which a BB's tripod most falls completely over sideways. I don't recall that happening in RL...:hmm: The forward tripod on the Arizona did fall over forwards as her bridge collapsed (although not completely).

Yes, the movie did actually suck very badly, but I think the other comments on this thread have more than accurately conveyed that point by now.:p

Guys, it's Hollywood, what else did you expect!?

110% accurate historical authenthic movies?

FORGET IT those kind of movies woldn't sell

The Russians complain about everything. You know they're still on the ass end of the relatives of Erich Hartmann? They threaten them to this day that they'll kidnap them and that they'll murder them, although in 1997 they cleared Hartmann of any remaining charges and said his imprisonment was unlawful... 4 years after his death.

There was a movie in 2 parts about the Gustloff just 2 weeks ago on German and Austrian TV, I haven't seen it tho, but from what I've read it wasn't such a good movie (surely better than Pearl Harbor tho)

Anything and everything was better than Pearl Harbour :p
