The giant pool makes a brief appearance in Shin Godzilla when it’s filled with mud and composited over a live action shot. Long live the giant pool.

No rubber suit though

I would like to see a nice movie about Karl Muller and the Emden.

The problem is that if they made it true to life, no one would believe it.

Jim back in the day, when he had hair.

No Buna's were harmed in this picture although a lot of bananas were consumed.

They aren't. It's clearly part of the film score edited to the rhythm of the trailer. It's about creating a mood to help market the film. For all we know that may not be the films actual score. It sounds very Dunkirk-esque.

Pretty sure I never read about that part of the Battle of the Atlantic where U-boats with goofy conning tower emblems were doing Age-of-Sail style drive-bys on American destroyers which massively outgunned them.

Yes, I know I'm an idiot for expecting slow-burn tension or realism in a modern war movie.
