The producers are gonna destroy a ( TRUE ) war time classic. There is no way that I’d ever watch the remake of this great Classic. This film will be a load of ( ******** ).

Hmmm…

Hi Robert

You won’t know if they do or not as your not going to be watching it, but Jackson is going to use newly declassified War Office documents to ensure the authenticity of the film is not compromised, plus he also has the last living pilot of the strike team, Les Munro, who has joined the production crew in Masterton as technical adviser.

Whats with all this negativity about CGI, the majority of people don’t realise if anything is real or not nowerdays as it’s so good, most of the car adverts we see are not real, there’s even a food advert thats totally CGI that is unnoticeable from real, they made the change over a year ago now and nobody is up in arms…:rolleyes:

Anyway it’s just a remake of something that was done before, they’re not remaking a copy of the original film, word, action and frame perfect in every minute detail, its a telling of the same story, but different… Can’t that be done then, that first time telling is the best there will ever be…

God only knows how we would ever have got out of the stone age if we had thought like that…

I for one am looking forward to it!

Talking of Whirlwinds…

Original WFV Poster to be altered for new WFP poster

Ha!…

Funny thing is, if I’d wanted that to happen, the whole thing would have crashed and burned by the third post… :rolleyes:

And just to showcase one of a series of 4 WFP Whirlwind images, reminiscent of late 1930 aviation advertisements of the time, skilfully crafted by Mr Matt Painter, our resident CGI Artist.

Copies may be purchased in the theatre foyer…

We’ve been knocking some idea’s about Whirlwind models since the begining of the project, one of the favorites using the CAD Whirlwind would be to make say in 1/32 or even 1/25 scale a complete Whirlwind from the ground up, so with Kit 1 you’d start with the main internal structure, then Kit 2 would be according to the builders choice the ancillery units (Engine’s, undercarridge, cockpit etc… ) Kit 3 would be the exterior panels…

Then there’s desk-top models, using 3d printing a 1/72 scale Whirlwind would have all the detail that a full size replica would have, right down to a smallest screw, these could be either in wood or metal…

Then at last there’s a comic Whirlwind, not a kit, comes complete with working undercarridge, propeller’s and wheels, one for the kids, which will probably be the first to be released…
