I think there is now sufficient evidence to suggest that this movie is going to suck very hard indeed.

I would still like to see a film version of 'Bomber' by Len Deighton- great book, well balanced showing the stupidity, heroism, and mundanity of both sides. Not to mention luck enountered by all concerned, both good and bad. I read somewhere years ago that the guy who made 'Memphis Belle' originally wanted to do this book but couldnt get funding or a flightworthy Lancaster.
I believe a big problem with something like the story of the Tuskegee airmen is that it is too complex for a blockbuster movie. I predict the story will be weighed down by too much sentimentality and a need for drama that an audience can immediately appreciate- that's why these movies often have such one-dimensional characters with instantly recognisable angels and demons.

Just in case you do go and it is sucking big time, every time an allied aeroplane goes down let out a great big... HORRIDO! You'll get yourself kicked out of the theater for sure after a few of those. Maybe even punched in the head LOL. Who knows you may even have an IL-2 flyer answer you back and you can go for a beer later and discuss flight models and this terrible movie. That's my plan anyway.

I wish it was summer because I would walk into the theater with my T-Shirt with Puffs 109 Pilot Art on it.

I like it....

Hahahah, sounds like a plan...if you want to get in a fight and called names that is :-P

I judge all movies these days by seeing if they can measure up to what I consider to be the greatest movie of all time, and from what Ive seen of the trailers I dont think this film is fit to lick 'Teen Wolfs' boots!!

Probably one to see on the cheap at home. For some mad reason I do feel like I need to see 'air combat' type movies, but usually just end up shaking my head afterwards at 'what might have been' given the money thats spent on them.

Dark Blue World is the best ww2 flight movie IMHO even if it had the usual love triangle and buchons :( it was still very good

S!

Dark Blue World is one of the best ones indeed. These trailers really made me feel sorry for the people watching the movie. Really for what kind of audience is it targeted to? Someone with no brains and any clue of WW2 history? Cheebus...Even Memphis Belle with it's inaccuracies was better than this crap.
