This looks very promising, Brad Pitt leads a WWII tank crew.
It does look like it could be a winner.
Looks good for achange.
Real hard for me to be excited about any movie with BP as the lead.
Sherman vs a Tiger in an open field. It’s going to take some pretty interesting story telling not to make that suck. The rest looks pretty good.
Yeah I caught that too. We shall see, I got the impression that he set up some sort of trap and used themselves as bait for the Tiger drawing them out into the open.
Looks like it might be a good one.
Open field, mud and some slick driving by the Sherman to get to the rear or flank and it could be done.
God Bless the Second Armor Divison, “Hell On Wheels”.
I watched the trailer for a second time when I was showing it to a buddy of mine and at 1:59 I noticed Pitt’s character uses a captured StG 44. Sweet!
I noticed that too. Looks like a good gear head movie…
Yeah, I was sold when I saw the panzerfäust scene. 
M4A3E8 “Easy Eight” against a Tiger I? Not necessarily. Now if it were an earlier variant, like an M4 or an M4A1, yeah, they’d be pretty boned.
Yeah, I’m still not over Inglorious Bastards, one of the worst movies I’ve seen since Natural Born Killers.
Looks like it has potential.
Tanks blowing shit up? What’s not to love? I’ll leave it to the ex-armored guys to assess it’s authenticity.
Looks good and I will be going to see it.
That’s not because of Pitt though, we all know your love affair with Tarantino films, Natural Born Killers was written by QT not directed however. :jester:
I too was disappointed with Inglorious Bastards as it was supposed to be QT’s “guys on a mission” movie based upon one of his favorite films of all time (and mine) The Dirty Dozen.
One of my drill seargants had a 2nd armored division patch from the gulf war. Pretty rare patch nowadays. Most men are retired tha would’ve worn that patch.
^ Tiger Brigade, 2AD…what a unit! Guys like Doc Bahnsen, JW Thurman, and others all helped build that unit during the 70’s and 80’s.
Getting back to the movie - I think I actually heard a fire command and an “on the way” from the gunner. Looks great!
Actually, that movie has some basis in fact supposedly. I don’t know how much but a woman that works for my wife’s grandfather was a consultant on that movie and he was in some serious action.
I actually heard about this movie last year some time, IIRC, when my wife was telling me about her new hire that was talking about her Grandfather doing a bunch of consulting for a new movie with Brad Pitt about WWII tanks. She knew I would be highly interested in it.
Of course you know how Hollyweird is with movie accuracy. I can ask my wife if she can find out more about it, assuming that woman still works for her.
