Yes, I think I will be doing the same. Also with it being based on a true story they always seem to be that much more better for it storywise. Also with a pretty cast usual signals a good movie - Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Gleeson, Fletcher etc. |

| Star Wars maybe will have the biggest revenues in the history of any movie. Even after Jurassic World made $ 1 Billion in sales earlier this year. Been a long time since epic WW2 movie was made. Hollywood usually screws up with cookie cutter CGI or out of scale models. Saving Private Ryan was the only top tier WW2 movie made in recent memory. |

Wow - good advice. Just saw the trailer. The camera angles and cinematography are quite impressive. I'll see it for sure. |

Yes, a new WW2 block buster would be nice. What period in WW2, as most major periods have been covered. Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings repute was meant to be making a remake of the Dam Busters ( military aircraft being a passion of his ). Nothing has been said about that for sometime but it went past the drawing board. |

the action is so good it's hard to watch the subtitles[/quote]
There are some very good ( as we say ) foreign movies out there. My best WW2 foreign movie - Downfall. |
