Has anyone had a chance to see "Shooting War"
This is the new Speilberg compilation of combat footage that is now in limited release.

Speilberg put a crew together to comb the vaults, they came up with 500 hours of lost footage. Some of this film was shot by the best in the business(John Ford for 1). The end result is 90 Mins. of never before seen footage.

This is supposedly scheduled to be televised some time in August.

You brits are forgetting one thing, if americans wouldn't save your butts in WW2 movie, it would face heavy criticism and therefore sell badly

Superfly,

Thank you for the link to the trailer I am hoping for an enjoyable movie. It really cracks me up how this became a mini flame war between the U.S. and the Brits I am sure the majority of it is people just having fun.
I have to agree with Jim Bear on the Saving Private Ryan remark though, that to me was uncalled for. I was fortunate to see it opening day and the impact it left on my fiance and myself was staggering, the entire theater for that matter. To see a packed movie house silent as the screen went black tells me that Spielberg accomplished what he was looking to do and that is make us think of how horrendous war is, and have appreciation to those who payed the ultimate price for us.

Well a majority of the aircraft are the realdeal, maybe not the right model but its not replica. As for Russian dueing the restorartion Juzz.. what wrong with that. Its about as crazy as the US doing the restoration and the Russians restoration program believe it or not IS just as good as the USs and in some aspects MUCH better. I seen the Aviation museum in Moscow... better then most museums here in america. Sorry had to go off on that statement because heritage is in Russia.

Anyway, no matter what is said about it, SUPERFLY Thanks a billion for the info and I am probably going to see it 3 or 4 times anyway.. then buy the video.

I just thought it was strange that they would have A6M's in Russia. I know they did a whole bunch of I-16's and an I-153 for NZ, and alot of German stuff is coming out of Russia, that makes sense. But where did they get Zeros from?

leonid · « **Reply #39 on:** July 08, 2000, 08:59:00 AM »

juzz,
The last campaign the Soviets did in WWII was in Manchuria, where they crushed the Japanese army in China. That's probably where they got the Zekes.

Actually the landing on Saving Pvt Ryan was realistic, according to a documentary I saw on History Channel, the Normandy invation was divided into many beaches, each assigned to different countrys.
Omaha Beach was a landing point for the yanks. There were no brits there, they were busy fighting on another beach (cant remember the name) but I know it was kinda urban warfare.

So move on brits, Omaha was flowing with Yank and Hun blood, ONLY.
