Mighty Eighth trailer

Not a problem my man. Easy mistake to make seeing as how Speilberg’s series has the same working title. He’s done his best to confuse nearly all of the internet 😉

I believe this Trojan horse of a trailer was discussed here weeks ago…at the time it drew plenty of comments from the usual suspects here about how the Yanks were going to tell everyone how they won the war.
How many times have we heard that?
And it’s not even the real trailer….

My apologies for posting the link, folks. Obviously, as Rick Blaine said to Captain Renault “I was misinformed.” Must admit, though, that I was a bit underwhelmed by this, especially by the B-17 wingover.

To redeem myself, I only just recently watched “Angels One Five,” which I thought a terrific film, despite some of the clunky use of models in some of the aerial combat scenes. Of course, I’m always on board with almost any film with Jack Hawkins (except maybe Dr. Phibes). My favorite bit was the lecture to the defaulter: “Christmas daisies! Where’s my crib!” In many ways it was a worthy miniature predecessor to “The Battle of Britain.”

Have a good week,

Bob

Just to clarify, this doesn’t have anything to do with Speilberg/Tom Hanks project about the 8th Airforce. This is actually a teaser trailer for a movie that is currently being shopped around to see if anyone will pick it up.

I can hear it now. “Where do we get such men?”

There seems to be no happy middle ground between looking completely OTT or just unrealistic.It does look interesting in that clip but that is only a small part of it.

What a shame, some young sprog who put the graphics together has spent too long on the X-Box.

Is that realistic? I’ve no idea. But it looks interesting.

NO !

Oh dear .

Wow!
