Silent Hunter 3 gave me the sub bug so I ordered both Das Boot (Directors Cut) and Down Periscope. I've seen parts of Das Boot here and there, already knew about the end, but the ride was still awesome.

There was something I was wondering about though. When Thomsen is being helped out of the bathroom by the Captain and Werner, why does he say "I am not in a condition to fxck" in English? (I am watching without the English voice dubs of course.)

I don't know much German so maybe that phrase happens to be that similar?

I could be wrong, I got distracted during a couple of scenes, but I think he was kind of peefed that he was too drunk to get it up and show that German beauty from the party a good time.

Actually, I meant why would he say those words in English and not German?

Also, I have been really impressed with some of the WWII movies the Germans have made lately. Sophie Scholl: The Final Days and Downfall are excellent movies!

I would really love it if they made a movie about the luftwaffe now.
