Title: Update on the movie "Dark Blue World" (WW2 RAF)
Post by: Czech on November 06, 2001, 07:48:00 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:

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 UK 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!

Probably yes - the publisher for Australia is a company named "Dendy Films".  They should know more...

Nazdar Orle!

Litam ve WW2OL, predtim to bylo WarBirds (cca od roku 95).

AH jsem zavrhnul ze dvou duvodu:

- ciste pozdni valka, ktera mi moc nehovi, neb boom and zoom shledavam nudnym (190 D-9, Mustangy, F4U atd atd) a davam prednost manevrovemnu souboji.

- damage model - soudim ze to ze se mi letadlo rozpadne (s nadsazkou) po dvou zasazich z kilometrove vzdalenosti je na h.... .  Je to tak udelane proto aby mohli hrat a sestrelovat i lide, kteri nejsou schopni soupere udrzet v zamerovaci dele nez pul sekundy v kuse.

Jinak je to skvely simulator, hlavne vizualne, a doufam ze jsem se Te nijak nedotknul.  IMHO ho ale ww2ol do pul roku totalne deklasuje, a v mnoha ohledech (kromne HW naroku..  :( ) ho uz davno prekonava.

Tak nazdar!

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:

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!!!
