Don't get me wrong, I'm in the same boat.  Better to have actual aircraft do all the fancy work.  Problem is, do you happen to know where to get a bunch of G3M's, or even of a plane that could be modified to LOOK like them, and in numbers?

I’d rather see B-25s with fake markings than what we see in this trailer.

That would be akin to running TMB's in place of B5N's.

Wow I find it hard to believe it has been almost 38 days since our last path. We should have release another 38 versions by now  :bhead

Or SBDs or BT-15s, which has been done before. 


I say go for it.

You'll never beat the real thing unless you have actual aviators staging the scenes.   Nevermind this fascination with explosions and crazy eye candy that's totally ridiculous.

A Zeke trailing smoke and spinning downhill is far more believable than the crap they do now.   I absolutely cannot stand it.   Give me a real airplane any day.

It's a movie.  Would you also rather see real people actually getting shot and dying?  Much more realistic.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

No, but if I want to watch a cartoon I'll break out ROBOTECH.

CGI sucks.  It looks like crap and ruins the movie.   My gosh, FLYING TIGERS in 1942 used models and did a better job than CGI does.

Oh, I'm not looking for it to be like Twelve O'Clock High, or Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo, or Midway, or Battle of Britain, or The Blue Max, or Dark Blue World.

Still, I would still definitely watch it with gusto with the appropriate mind set and expectations.  :aok  :banana:

"Pearl Harbor" with more cheese.

I think Bruce Willis is mad at Nagumo for his role in allowing the takeover of the Nakatomi building...

 :furious That Movie caused my phobia of Glass Panels indoors :furious Almost as scared of these as I am about not pulling my bed covers around my neck, to sleep. Thank you, baby sitter from when I was TOO LITTLE to watch DRACULA in 1976 :rofl  Almost as bad as watching the movie Arachnophobia night before Opening Day of Squirrel Season(last Saturday in August)...when ALL trails are crisscrossed by webs and you are walking in before Daylight :uhoh Didnt think that one ALL the way through :rofl Surely, this Movie experience will be ok :devil

That's exactly why I think I'll like this one a lot, but I didn't like Pearl Harbor at all.   :aok

Also, this one looks to have way more air combat scenes.  :airplane:

Wait, there was action scenes in Pearl Harbor?  I must've blinked when I watched it, because it look like a chick flick set in WW2 era. :noid
