Found these today on the net. Promising, despite the inevitable reliance on CGI. I doubt they’l get much of a release in cinemas, if at all. But I for one will be keeping an eye out for these on Blu-ray when the time comes.

Apparently Bruce Willis plays a character named Jack Johnson. Clearly meant to be Chennault. The question as to why the makers of “The Bombing” haven’t simply acknowledged the founder of the AVG remains to be answered . Though probably politics has something to do with it.

The trailer for Dywizjon 303 was unavailable in the original post, but I found this one instead….

Did they take the bailout scene at the end from the BoB film? As TallyHo said, looks familiar. Doesnt fit the colour of the rest of the film aswell.

A couple of clips from another Chinese movie. Pretty sure it’s not the one with Bruce Willis. Excellent CG. Certainly puts “Pearl Harbor” to shame……Not that that’s hard to do.
Have they superimposed aircraft over Battle of Britain footage and that bail out at the end looks awfully familiar?

Also a couple more trailers popped up today, one on the Flying Legends Airshow Facebook page, the other on BHHH’s Facebook page. Both for the upcoming Spitfire documentary.
I also note that Pinewood Studios are showing The Battle of Britain on a upcoming charity evening to celebrate the 50th anniversary

Thanks for posting – 303 Sqn looks pretty good- apart from inevitable Brit bashing – and the static Hurricanes are rubbish but the CGI looks great!
