    If they made a 2 hour movie about pizza starring only Jessica Simpson and Jessica Alba AND they appeared in every scene AND they were nude the whole time AND the MPAA decided that even an X rating was not harsh enough, then I would watch it and not be bored. In fact, I could probably watch up to 8 hours or so of that movie before I got "bored".

    Other than that though, you're right, pizza movie=boring.

    Jessica Simpson doesn't send me but if they can clone Ms. Alba and have her play both roles I'm in.

    In keeping with forum tradition in this type of thread at this point we would be remiss were we to not include some slight slur intended to let "those people" know how we feel about them.It doesn't have to be factual or even rational, as is demonstrated time and again. So here goes nothing.


    Damn British, always acting like they think they invented English.

    Sigh....I know, feeble but what can I say. I have trouble working up animosity for people I have never met.

    Glad to read your comments, HuninMunin, and I am now looking forward to the film. American cinema lovers have become rather cynical. The story of von Richthofen deserves to be told well. He was a fascinating man, and there certainly is a great deal of quality biographical material available on his life.
    I can imagine how cynical you must've been after leaving Pearl Harbor
    I think the difference between european ( british aside a little bit) and american war movies is just that a <span class="ev_code_RED">typical</span> american audience expects entertainment even in such serious topics like war movies.
    As beeing very well aware of the cruelty of war and the absolute absence of pride in the actions our country did in war, although mostly beeing aceptional in military terms, a movie that has history wrong and/or dipicts it in an emotional frame that doesn't do justice to the real events, will be slaughtered in no time by critics.
    For example, Das Boot was slaughtered aswell when it was released because it depicted the Nazi soldiers as normal men.
    Totaly over the top and caused by the heavy left wing attitude that ruled this country and is only about to finaly break up.
    As a result of this "reawoken" pride we feel for our country as it is today and the attitude towards war I can imagine that a movie about the Red Baron made today will be both historicaly correct ( in a certain way) and entertaining.
    But again, I only hope so. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>


    As u said, European war movies is totaly differant from thoose made in Hollywood, darker and feels more real. Even the lovestorys within the movies ( if there even is one ) is differant.

    I have 1oo times more hope for the RedBaron than i have for Flyboys. Just to name a WWI movie "Flyboys" says it all in my book.

    Let's put it this way, HuninMunin and BaronUnderpants, it will be a cold day in Hell when an American director will do a film as great as THE TIN DRUM.
