Lucas does Red Tails...

[retrojet]

Maybe all swastikas should be reversed... Just to take the edge off?...

This whole movie could be fixed really quick, with the opening "in a galaxy far far away..."

If the film does justice to the story then ok il prob watch it and try to forget the P51 pulling a tie fighter turn and the rest of the awful CGI.

Did they get the roll rate in there from the AI roll rate in COD?

Oh and David Hayward, nice work again... they stuff you wrote in this thread actually made me gasp

Which stuff was that, furbs? Was it the part where I pointed out that only an idiot would assume that the people who produced this movie would not know the difference between a 109 and a 262?

More Hollywood brain washing ...

I can just see the treads coming now ... "I've flown the P-51 just like they did in Red Tails but I can't catch the 262 in CoD ... the FM is porked"

Looks more "Pearl Harbour" than "Dark Blue World" so can't say as I'm too excited.

The only modern-era production I have any hope for in terms of realistic portrayal of aircraft physics (why do all CGI productions have to suck so bad?) is Jackson's Dambusters remake, although given the way the dog issue turned out it's already lost all historical credibility.

If it makes you feel any better you can say "nigger" as much as you want at home since the movie isn't going to include it.

How does the dog even have any impact on the film? Did it work the bombsights when they were targeting the dams in Germany? If that one little thing is going to ruin the movie for you, then you have serious problems.

What people are complaining here about Red Tails is that from a 2 minute trailer they've already been able to find enough mistakes to pretty much rule it out as being anything other than a story that happens to be based on true events.
