WOW thanks for the headsup... Just checked the tv guide and its on in 15mins here on the Westcoast.

HBO signature channel btw.

"It's a great movie. The stories of what happened after the war are pretty typical of what happened to Czech and Polish pilots and soldiers. For these guys the war wasn't over until 1990 or so"

Hehe somone read the credits

The Movie was "ok" Can't belive they took from the same love story as "Peral Harbor".

Commies worse then nazis?... Very sad. Usually I stop argueing with people who show such a high degree of ignorance and obviously suffered from heavy brainwashing, but some of your points are new for me and refreshing.

Brain washing?  Let me see here, your government killed and/or imprisoned MILLIONS of your own people after WW2 and during the Cold War for crimes as simple as not agreeing with Stalin, communist ideology, and just plain being different.  Too top it off your country has spread weapons throughout the world to ensure the poison and corruption of communism continues to cause misery upon humans world wide.  Ohh, and should we mention Chechnya?  Thats another Russian graveyard that your government is perpetrating.

It's beautiful. Brilliant. Your "land of free" showed such dedication and effort preparing for a nuclear war with my country, planning total destruction of Soviet major cities since 1947! So nice that international state terrorism that was, and still remains the main way of your foreign politics is excused by "fighting the evil commies". Millions of murdered Koreans, Vietnamese and other victims of your "crusade" must be happy you were saving them from "communism".  

Dedication and effort to protect our country against a possible attack from yours?  That's wrong?  You truly are as idiotic as you sound Boroda, your country's attempt at arming and maintaing it's army bankrupted it and starved millions of it's citizens.  We were able, to not only defend our countryand project our forces to try and help against your world wide onslaught, but we did it why staying the best free market place worldwide.  Still are for that matter.  As for our involvement in Korea and VIetnam, gee Korea was a UN stand against a menace backed by your country, and Vietnam was not lost, we gave up from lack of public support, but atleast we tried to help the people there.  But low and behold, guess who is again asking us for help.... the government of Vietnam, guess we really are horrible people.  Name something that your country and communism has done that benefits the world...

You know nothing about my country, you know nothing about Communism, and you still make conclusions about it, based on 50+ years of propaganda that inherited all the dr. Goebbels's lies. Very smart.

I know enough about communism to know that it is a failure of a system.  It does not work because it is so open to corruption, and is frought with a few "haves" and a whole bunch of "have nots" who toil to support the "haves"  Sounds like a wonderous deal...  WHy do you suppose the remaining communist nations are failing?  Because it DOES NOT WORK!  As for us being students of Goebbel?  Boroda, that is so pathetic, have you ever read that man's work?  

As usual, your comments are baseless, agressive and stupid. What education did you get yourself? Church Sunday school? Lessons of hatered at the military camp? Go read some books.

Boroda, I have a four year degree not to mention many further specialised trade certifications for my profession.  Love to read too, just did not enjoy any of Marx's or Stalin's BS.  When is the last time you read something about human rights and / or oppresive governments?  

If you have read my posts on this board, you had a chance to read my explainations about my status in my squad and wbfree.net project.

Too even joke about it Boroda is sick... that in itself makes my skin cringe too think you would be proud of something like that.

As every righteous American you still think that every Russian is a communist. Very smart. Who told you that? Your "free press" that still is in chains of corrupt ideology and political warfare?

I do not think every Russian is a communist, as a matter of fact, I know, that MOST russians are not communists.  Rather they are a people like me who seek to live happy and fulfilled lives.  Yet unfortunately they still live in an oppressive society, and that is where my problem is with your country.

I am proud of Commissars of 1941, who preferred to die by torture then to tear their Commissar's Red Stars from their sleeves. I am proud of my Grandfather who was a true Communist. But I am not a Communist myself, I'll never vote for our modern commies and I don't want to go back to Soviet times.

You can be proud of something all you want, that does not make it right.  Communism has no benefits for the world, you are exercising some good judgemnet in not wanting it back.

You have to understand that Communism is only another religion. It's the easiest way for people like you to get it.

Another religion?  I repeat myself... It's a failed system that does nothing but oppress the masses to support the few in luxury.  How thick is your head??????  Cripes, you go on and on about how great it is, then say you do not want to live under the ideals of it?  You truly are delusional Boroda.  Nationalistic pride is one thing, but plain stupidity is another.  It seems very obvious what you are suffering from, I truly feel sorry for you.

i find it amazing that some of you go to great lengths to justify "some SS" because they weren't all evil, yet all commies are the same bad guys.

Be consistent please. If you're going to generalize it has to be both ways.

Sorry to jump in a "bit" late, but I'm not a regular reader of the AH forums

I could call it an exellent movie.

But the starting scene with evil Russians and good and nice SS doctor is a little bit too much.
 

There was not a single Russian (not even an evil one) in the whole movie, as there was no reason for Russians to be there at all.  Nor is a single word in Russian spoken in the movie.  It is interesting to note that you have imagined an evil Russian being there, though - I wonder why?

The Movie was "ok" Can't belive they took from the same love story as "Peral Harbor".

The fact that Pearl Harbor and Dark Blue World came out together was a pure coincidence.  Work on Dark Blue World started about 5 years before it came out, and writing of the script started even earlier, with no knowledge of Pearl Harbor whatsoever.  So the (very remotely) similar love stories are a coincidence, too; you be the judge of which one is more believable
