BTW - wasn't there soe movie about Iwo Jima being filmed in Iceland or Greenland or something because they also had black sand beaches?  I remember seeing some articles about it, but for the life of me can't remember the name.  What ever happened to that one?

Maybe thinking of "Flags of Our Fathers", directed by Clint Eastwood?  It is coming.

He also said he plans on doing one from the Japanese side, tenatively called "Lambs Before the Wind".

EDIT:

Bah, should learn to read the thread befor eposting.  Saxman beat me to it.

Btw, did anyone notice the Bi and Tri planes sprialing uppwards and rolling better then a Spit 16?


Yep pretty stupid, they could have made a great movie instead they just plain phked it up.  If you can't get the planes right you got nothing.  Plus, like many said the sub plots look totally ghey.

It's too bad.

And hey now Wilbus, what's wrong with Sky Captain?


Oh nothing ;)

However, it doesn't claim to be based on a true story
