Title: Update on the movie "Dark Blue World" (ww2 RAF)
Post by: Czech on November 06, 2001, 07:46:00 AM: For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, it's a movie about Czechoslovak fighter pilots in the RAF in WW2.

Here's my unofficial page:

Here's official Sony Classics page (nothing there yet):
http://www.sonyclassics.com/darkblueworld/ (http://www.sonyclassics.com/darkblueworld/)

This is another decent web with info on the movie in English:
http://www.upcomingmovies.com/darkblueworld.html (http://www.upcomingmovies.com/darkblueworld.html)

Here's a review I wrote (warning: Pearl Harbor mentioned!):

You can view the trailer here (warning: nudity!), it's 13 megs!:

---------
But why I'm writing this in the first place - the opening dates for U.S. and Great Britain are now known.

Dark Blue World is scheduled to start showing in Los Angeles and New York on the 28th of December, 2001!

Other relase dates scheduled:

UK 11 January 2002
Germany 14 February 2002

Remember to check on it and if you can see it, go, you won't regret it.

Czech 6!

Do you know if it going on general release in the UK?

I'm guessing it will, given the Sony involvement.

Post by: Kratzer on November 06, 2001, 10:05:00 AM: I'm hoping this one makes it into a theatre near me at some point... The trailer looks incredible - been watching it every couple weeks for the last few months...

Thanks for the update Czech!

Post by: Czech on November 06, 2001, 04:23:00 PM: Raubvogel: Yes, subtitled; there would be no point in trying to dub it. But roughly 30% of the dialogues are in English anyway... "Hitler has only got one ball,...." You'll remember :)

Dowding: I presume that it's because the directors ask her to. BTW if I'm not mistaken it's much less-obvious in the movie than in the trailer.

Pollock: Yes, hopefully, but I would still suggest to go see it in a movie theatre. The Cinemascope format (Phantom Menace...) and digital sound (WOW!) really call for it.

funkedup: I believe that quote isn't original, someone already used it in my last post about this movie :) Maybe it was you though.. :p

Tits and Spits!!! Three Thumbs Up!!!

That would make a *great* billboard quote. I can see it now:

"A great film, heartily recommended" - Empire

"Superb effects and a touching storyline" - CNN.com

"Tits and Spits!!! Three Thumbs Up!!!" - FunkedUp

Post by: Czech on November 09, 2001, 04:48:00 AM: Since I've published the link to official Sony Classics page, and since it's been recently updated (to be found here: http://www.sonyclassics.com/darkblueworld/ (http://www.sonyclassics.com/darkblueworld/) ) I owe you people a warning:

DO NOT READ THE "SYNOPSIS" SECTION OF THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE! It is a complete SPOILER, as it will tell you all that will happen in the movie, who will die and when, and how the whole thing ends!!!
