DAS BOOT.........Tonight!

Elder-Pirate · 06-30-07, 05:22 PM

In case some of you captains have not seen "Das Boot" well now is your chance ( at least in the States ).

AMC channel 7:00 pm to 11:30 pm Central Daylight Time.

All ashore that's going ashore.

Set your VCR.

Sailor Steve · 06-30-07, 05:25 PM

Yes, by all means watch it on AMC.

BUT...

Do yourself a favor and go buy the 'Uncut' version. You'll thank me later.

Trust the Old Sailor.

Elder-Pirate · 06-30-07, 05:33 PM

Well whichever way you watch it don't forget the popcorn.

I took Steve's advice not long ago and ordered the 5 hour version from Amazon, got it in a couple or three days and enjoyed the hell out of it... Thanx Steve

I just finished watching the 5 hour version, first time I have seen this one.

Much better then the shorter ones, imo

My Wife couldn't figure out why I hung all our meat in the hallway, and the veggies were put in the bathroom until she saw the movie...

Das boot kicks arse

1480 · 07-01-07, 07:40 AM

is the 5 hour version the 2 sided disc??? Otherwise known as the directors cut???

WernerSobe · 07-01-07, 07:56 AM

no the directors cut is not 5 hours version.

Das Boot was actualy a tv production and came in 10 series of 30 minutes each. Later they have cut it together into a 2 hour movie. But people wanted to see all so they released a full 5 hour version. This one was to long for some so they have pushed out directors cut which is i think about 3 and a half hours.

After hanging out here for awhile I found myself just picking apart the details of the movie for this and that I didn't think were quite right. The most awesome movie ever made of U-Boat warfare and I'm wasting my time criticizing! It's not like a better one is likely ever to be made. Oh well... Nature of the beast I suppose.
