Default Das Boot (the original uncut version DVD)

If you play SH3, you must see this movie on DVD. This was my holiday gift to myself. I ordered it from Amazon for approximately $36.

Oh yes. This is the best Sub movie ever. I think there should be a question in the installation of SH about it. It should be something like 'Have you seen Das Boot?' If you reply no then the installation should stop and tells you 'Fine go buy a copy of the movie, see it and then come back and continue with the installation of SH'!!!

Hide the install key somewhere in the movie.

Personaly I find the uncut version much too long, and some scenes I can understand why they were cut (the mistaken bird for an airplane bit was horrible)!
But it was nice to see Francoise...

If you buy the DVD you can play it with German language and english subtitles or you can play it dubbed over in english. It's your choice.

There really isn't a choice. You must watch it in German with English subtiles if so desired or else you're going on bilge duty!

They did get the actual actors to do the English voice overs though, so that helps a little, but it's still not as good as the German language.

The subtitles in the 5 hour version are slightly different than in the 3 hour version, not as good I feel, and the sound is supposedly not as good either (but I couldn't tell on a DTS/THX system) but the extra footage makes up for any shortcommings.

It hurts me down real deep because I have only see the Directors Cut!

BTW, I don't think there's a Kaleun here that hasn't seen Das Boot (If they haven't, go lunch yourself from a torpedo tube till you reach the coast of some country and buy Das Boot there! )

My copy is still in the plastic wrapping. Its been a toss up of play the game or watch the DVD since I got it. I'm a very long way from being bored of the game yet and the other half "doesn't like war films". I will get around to it soon but which would you rather do for 5 hours?

Umm...you can't play the game one day and watch the movie the next day?
And btw, tell your other half this war film is actualy an anti-war film.

Most probably true. The Nazi propagandy most surerly wouldn't play it around!

Keep an eye on your TV guide. It has been on several times, full width, and in German, no breaks for commercials ! That's where I got MY VCR tape of it...
