TV/Movies Megathread

God, I haven't seen Kelly's Heroes in so, so long.  Blu-ray?

FUCK YEAH BLU-RAY AND IT COMES WITH WHERE EAGLES DARE FOR $9 I CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO BUY IT.

Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit.

This movie just reeks of lost opportunity. Great cast, decent script, good director, great DP. What we get are individual great performances, trapped by shitty camera work, unfocused directing, and uninspired editing to render a muddy, visually stilted film that fails to take advantage of three of the most physically expressive actors working today: Chris Pine, Keira Knightley, and Kenneth Branagh.

When you have the director and DP of Thor working on a movie set in Russia, you expect more. WTF? No wonder this thing tanked.

Yeah,I inadvertently watch that and afterwards couldn't decide if the copy-protection dvd played on my pc was causing the thing to jump and miss bits or because it was really badly edited.

...

and that's giving credit to the movie for using the only running Tiger Ausf.E in the world.

...

I'll go and see it running in the summer if I have time.

I watched a reality show one time about fixing up a Jagdtiger.

I think that was just coverage of 11B4V's latest customising of a muscle car.

The dad of a chick I work owns one of those Ferret armored cars from WWII.  She came into my office on Friday to show me a pic of that and then one of her firing an SKS.  I really hope she didn't notice my huge boner because she might have misinterpreted it.

If it's a British Ferret AC then those are post war, small things with jaguar engines and several thousand made, hence when retired a huge number were sold off, army surplus for nr pennies.

You just had to show up and harsh my buzz didn't you 

[11B4V]

11Bravo is the WW2 equivalent of all the history fascists that flipped out over 300. 

YOU CANT HUG CHILDREN WITH COMBINED ARMS

But really, it was a bad movie. I can forgive a lot of things. For craps sake, nothing like watching this steaming pile mouth agape for 130 min.

and another thing, who the fuck sends out four tanks w/o infantry support.

and another thing, a single broken down medium tank holding off a Waffen-SS infantry battalion. This is set 1945 not 1940 when infantry hand held HE antitank weapons were non-exsistant. Apparently Ed did not instruct his troopers in proper panzerfaust marksmanship. For shame Edward, for shame.

Sorry. 

But there really are tinny things, which is weird because the Brits made some really huge unweildy AC in ww2, Greyhounds and the Staghounds(brit name for hv US AC) are works or art in comparison.

I was complimenting the US designs, they seemed more mature and effective fighting machines.
