"Fury" - Movie. Bollywood Boycott Time again
 
*Sigh*

Brad Pitt and a Sherman tank, Bollywood strikes again it seems.
Because you know, 3 Americans against 300 SS and attempting to re-write history by displaying the Sherman tank in the Ardennes Offensive as a imba and invincible weapon is the thing that needs to be seen by people.

Err yeah right.

Entertainment you say? Riiight.

Shermans were infamous for being easy prey to German armor.

And who could forget Brad crossing no-mans-land in Legends of the Fall and took out a machine gun nest with a knife :haha:

What a joke.

Seriously, who watches this tripe, unless of course you need some propaganda quick fix.
Or you want to fantasise some more about killing Nazis.
This is old.


Only good thing in this film (Fury) is that they are using genuine Shermans and the last remaining working Tiger Tank.

Does Brad Pitt sic the "Bear Jew" on an unsuspecting German for interrogation purposes at some point? :O:

Sounds like the U-571 of tank movies.

He did sneak up on the gun team in the cover of the night, and took them out with a knife unspotted :03:

He'll do the same with a sherman, sneak up behind on a tiger, stab it with a giant knife at the end of the barrel and sneak off

In it's defense I don't think very many war movies have been much more than entertainment and bend history as needed for the screen play.

I'll save a seat here for Hunter, I'm sure he's already typing a long rant about Hollywood movies (don't call them Bollywood...some Bollywood films are actually quite good).
I had hopes for Fury when I first heard about it...but those hopes have gone down the more I've heard about it. Hollywood seems to do for WWII American military forces what Russian game developers do for WWII Soviet military forces. :dead: :nope:

Well, I'll just keep it down and just say one thing.
Don't label Fury as an Bollywood film as Bollywood films even a bad one can be enjoyable to watch, can't say the same regarding Hollywood films especially when they're bad.

Yeah, Bollywood films are about dancing, singing, bright colors, dancing, singing, some personal story, dancing, singing, retelling of folklore and some more dancing and singing.
But they do focus on the story a lot more than effects.
