Why is there no watch crew when the boat is surfaced?

The captain forgot to click and drag the IIWO onto the bridge.

Alternately, the entire watch crew was somehow killed by depth charges because WWII.exe thought that their souls were still on deck when the boat was submerged.

I think this movie is about the fear of the "terrible" uboots. It has a similar environment that an ovni invasion movie. No uboot crew to inhumanize germans and do them more terrifing.

I'm super hyped!!!!!

Yes, but will there be red triangles?
Needs more Harvey Keitel, Jon Bon, and Mr. McConaughey.


I've been sailing a Fletcher for a long time.
I didn't do it, cuz WoWs gave me one.

Jim, this is a US made movie, so no RN. Royal Navy in WW2? lolz


I'll continue my rant.
Bonus if: Hanks sinks the U-Boat with his pistol.
Save by the Army Air Corps at the last second.
They show Pearl Harbo(u)r attack....as that is the offical starting moment of WW2.
Produced by Kathleen Kennedy, forcing 21st Century morals in 20th century. Will there be enough SJWs? ew, gross, the crew is too white. Lesbian, vegan love scenes? Did I miss anything?




update, no Kathleen Kennedy, so no mish-mash of Das Boot (tv series) meets Star Wars with emo-Vader. emo-nazi vader?

Ahaha I just watched the trailer and wow, this is going to be some bull****.

I like the creepy whale noises the uboats make, though. They're pretty badass. Definitely bull****. But badass.

Having watched the Accountant for like the 5th time?
I expect this to be just as entertaining as that.
I mean, who could shoot a BMG .50 Cal semi-auto at a standing position like that?
That thing is 30 pounds PLUS easy!
Mostly BS but still probably fun IF the Wife can handle how many times We point out the BS!

Well, I'd watch it, too. it looks entertaining. Unfortunately, due to corona virus, we're not going to be able to watch this in a movie theatre in June, are we?
