Hey Foz, Look what I found on Youtube now. I need to find a better quality version without the subs. Awesome Short movie Directed by Nick Ryan.

That English pilot is a right madman. The ending made me laugh.


If you haven't seen it before, you should watch Nick Ryan's other short film called 'A Lonely sky' . Thats pretty awesome too. Ive found that in 720p here http://dekku.nofatclips.com/?s=Nick+...hsubmit=Search

Sweet!! finally got to watch it,good find mate.

Looked good, sounded good, and was rather enjoyable.


My only concern......

Without spoiling the plot, how did they manage to get from where they were flying at the start to where they ended up? Can the fuel tanks take them that far.... how would you not notice?

About "The German" (warning: Spoilers)



The short film is not bad but I see two "little" problems.

1. From the English Channel to Ireland in 8 minutes, a true record

2. I don´t belive as the Messerschmitt is shoot down; the planes without the one of the wings, the belly landing is impossible.

If you watch closely they clearly exit a wormhole as they break through the cloud cover :P

Spielberg has decided cash in on all his hit movies by morphing them with a new subject. first is "aliens and cowboys" out now. next? a mix of starwars and pearl harbor....heres a screen shot from "Jedis and Japs" due our the 5th quarter of 2012.

I'm pretty pumped about Red Tails (as described in the other thread) and apparently John Woo is working on a movie about the Flying Tigers, which as long as it's not loaded with subtitles, should be pretty good.

I'm watching Catch-22 on the suggestion of this board and am rolling with laughter. It's a little obscure and the air combat doesn't seem to be anything special, but the off beat humor (and Orson Wells) is a riot.

ETA: Just finished the movie and wow. Parts of it were still funny, but I stopped laughing part way through. The film is incredibly dark. I still stick by my initial thought that the air combat isn't anything special. The B-25 shots were nice, but otherwise there wasn't much.

It would be nice to see a film made about the Black Sheep squadron and I don't mean the 70's Tv show. though Col. Pappy Boyington ret. make it fun to watch.

wasnt WW2 but was a good flick about the early days of aviation...barnstorming, movie making, and airshows....some great flying scenes for the day ( 1975 ).
