What does /k/ think of Fury? I just saw it and I thought it was the best war movie I've ever seen.
>>23353977
With it still fresh in my mind, I would have to agree with you. Best since Saving Private Ryan at the very least.
Personally, I prefer Saving Private Ryan. I must admit, however, that Fury is one of the most well done WWII movies of the last decade.
I saw it a couple hours ago.
THE first 5 star movie I've seen in years.
Powerful, gripping, I laughed, cried, and almost urinated all over myself.
>Large drink + 2.75 hour long movie = pain
10/10.
>>23353977
Saw it last week. I liked it, but wouldn't watch it again. Just because I can't stomach the horrors. They did a great job though. I like that they didn't make all of the characters as glorified good guys.
All the feels at the end though...
Oh look, its this thread again
Saw it a couple hours ago,
I liked it a lot, but I thought the dramatic cowboy ending was a little too much. Sort of anti-climatic considering how well done the tank on tank scenes were.
>>23355619
>Oh look, its this thread again
Last week's threads were initial opening night reactions.
The vast majority of people here do not see films on opening night. If they go and watch it a week later I see no reason why they cannot share their opinions as well.
A lot of people also avoided those early threads due to spoiler fears (and /k/'s lack of spoiler tags).
Is it another allied glory film? If so i dont wamt to watch

No, it's not. In the lead-up to the film's release, people all over the internet were saying it would be. But there is a vast quantity of Americans being deplorable assholes. Almost to the point that you don't feel sorry for some of the characters.
>>23357839
because it looks cool. 90% of the people watching it know WWII happened and that's the extent of knowledge they have
>>23358122
It also has to do with human beings having these things that we call 'hands.' They are our primary means of manipulating the world around us, including picking up weapons and ammunition.
Saw it last night. Unlike any [American] war movie I've seen before. The US troops come across mostly as sadistic hooligans fighting fanatical SS troops with kids mixed in. The film is pretty brutal in bits, it makes war look pretty ugly.
Pacing crashed when they got to the woman's house though. I get that it was trying to create an atmosphere of tension and unease by playing with your expectations of what was going to happen. But it felt drawn out and was kind of unpleasant really.
I liked the combat scenes but the last stand at the end was over the top and unrealistic. It asks you to believe that the Germans couldn't flank behind a stationary tank and that, of the at least four you saw in the marching column, only two guys were able to fire a panzerfaust at the tank, achieving a single casualty overall.
>>23358330
But they did flank it, Anon.
>>23358330

They just rip off the the real story of Audie Murphy

i could deal with the cowboy americans clapping ending and the fucking world war 2 lazors but the what bugged me was the scene where they are crossing the field with infantry. I dont know where they found their extras or who didnt tell them their queses but when they finally start "fighting" its a mix of people waddling hip firing their guns flinching every shot and guys looking around to each other obviously trying to figure out if this is their part to move

For the 100th fucking time /k/ does not hate fury as a movie.
/k/ hates fury as a production because they destroyed the tank losned to them by that museam and refused to pay for damages because "We just made it better, everyone will want to see the tank that was used in our movie"
>>23356863
No. About 20 mins in they kills kids. About an hour in their drunk and bout to rape some girls. Half the guys are assholes and the other half consist of a kid, a war vet with ptsd and a priestly shia labeouf who actually acts.

That kind of happens when a tank goes through mud, you know. The film's giving a huge cut of the profits to the museum.

>>23358978
THANK you. I'm getting sick of reviewers and people in general saying that this film was unfair to Germans as they are portrayed as being foolish or some other gibberish. What would have REALLY been foolish is if the Tiger sat in place while it couldn't see the charging tanks. I've also seen it said that they should have reversed, but that wouldn't have changed their situation as they still wouldn't have been able to get a line of sight on the attacking enemy armor until the distance had for the most part been completely closed.

He uses an StG 44 as his main rifle in the movie. Probably just one of those deals where he grabbed it off a dead German and likes to use it. I can't attest to how many people actually did that in the war, but I'm sure it isn't unheard of so it doesn't rustle me.
>>23358330
They did end up flanking the tank, quite a bit actually. But I'll agree, the ending was a bit over-the-top but compared to scenes like the Tiger fight, they kind of had to do something a tad in excess. I mean, it IS a movie. Was the scenario at the end feasible? Yes. Likely to actually happen? No, but anything is possible, and combined with the fact that it's a major motion picture, I'm letting it slide.
>>23353977
It was great. The battle with the Tiger kept me on the edge of my seat for the whole time. Loved how they showed that tank warfare works a lot with infantry too.
Still would have liked more tank porn.

But that's what was great about that scene.
Predictable movies suck.
What was the point of shooting the Tiger with one of the machine guns?
>>23360332
getting it's crew's attention
>>23360332
You can read here, for an example of machine gun effect on tanks:
http://www.lonesentry.com/articles/ttt_attacktiger/
If tl;dr,
>(b) "In addition to opening fire with the primary weapon -- the 57-mm -- the AT unit also opened with intense light machine-gun fire which forced the tank to button up and in effect blinded him. His vision apparently became confused and he was actually traversing his gun away from the AT guns when he was knocked out for good.
>>23360332
Desperation, maybe you can smash out some glass or something too. The sound is probably pretty disorienting as well.
I've heard tell of tanks crews being tortured into submission by persistent deafening small arms fire, though that isn't really relevant to the tiger scene.
Saw it with some friends two days back.
Dem tank fights.
>>23356863
At least it had a genuine Tiger tank and not a mocked up slav tank.
>>23360757
Aye, I was just trying to add something more if I could.
>>23358122
probably looted it from a dead kraut. I don't think it was uncommon to see troops use looted weapons. IE Nazi's with Thompson SMG's or Nuggets or Americans with MP40's.
>>23358122
> 90% of the people watching it know WWII happened and that's the extent of knowledge they have
MFW my little brother who turns 18 in two weeks told me that he wanted to see:
>" that Brad Pitt tank movie set in the 30s or whenever."
"You mean set in WWII?"
>"It's about WWII?"
And he claims to love America. I'd give him a fucking history book for his birthday if I thought that there was any chance it would get read.
>>23360332
I think they made a good point during the movie to show how loud small-arms are when they hit the tank, and how hard it can be to see when tracers/sparks are smacking all over the view-ports.
Also, I'm sure it's very possible to break/ruin a view-port if you mange to strike it enough.
>>23361515
I dont think they teach about WW2 anymore in school
From what I remember, they told us:
Germany Blitzkreigs, Britain, France, and loser euro countries declare war on them
Germany pisses off russia after signing treaty and war is declared
Japan bombs pearl harbor and war is declared
US nukes japan and russia seizes berlin
They never talked about china, spain, or africa
And this was in highscool so i guess they didnt want kids thinking about political systems or anything other than the fact that we won and nazis and commies are bad
>>23357839
>You wouldnt grab a MP40 or STG44 off a dead nazi to replace your garand if they had enough ammo
I'd trade a Thompson or BAR too because the ammo weighs more
>>23361656
For today's highschools however....
>"AMERICAN WON DA WER WIT OAR T-M34KAMPFWAGEN IV TIGER"
>>23361747
That's not what they teach. At all.
>>23361656
That's pretty spot on from what I remember from high school history too, that and a lot of talk about how appeasement is bad.
Regardless. It's pretty clear that Germans/Nazis are the antagonist from the trailers. It just boggles my mind that America v. Nazi Germany didn't register as WWII for him, nor did the time period he assumed. Almost rethinking buying him a rifle for his graduation next summer, maybe I'll just get him some truck nuts.

>>23358895
Yes they sure are assholes leaving the tank in film condition so the tank museum can do a film themed exhibition before returning it to display condition.
Sounds like /k/'s earlier prediction of Saving Private Ryanberg Redux was spot on.
from Taki's Magazine:
suffice it to say that 15 minutes into the gross-out, porno-violent movie, I was rooting for Brad ... preferably roasted alive inside his Sherman tank.
The blood orgy was directed by one David Ayer, whose imaginative powers are on a par with those of a mosquito seeking blood. (Human faces lie around like dirty underwear, bodies are flattened out by tanks and become parts of the landscape, limbs and heads are severed, all in glorious Technicolor.) Pitt is the non-com officer who leads his crew into battle, taking on single-handedly a German battalion of 600, when all he has to do is walk away and fight another day.
Five Americans against 600 Germans; now, that’s instructive, because I always thought by April 17, 1945, when the movie supposedly takes place, it was the other way round.
Oh well, we can’t all be heroes in real life; some are only so on reel. What this movie needs is a bit of range, a bit of subtlety, a bit of talent, and a different director, different script, a different writer, and different actors. Otherwise, in its present state, only Dracula and ghouls will enjoy it. In fact, it could be advertised as the movie that turned Count Dracula to masturbation. But I’m being too hard on these “artists.” This is a low, dishonest period in film, with no class and certainly no dignity. Unarmed, unresisting prisoners with their hands up are executed by our American heroes, something that definitely took place and was done by both the good and bad guys during that terrible war, especially at the end. But to show it as deserved, a comeuppance, is a cheap shot that appeals to anti-German ghouls. No one, even among the bravest of the brave, wanted to risk his life two weeks before Germany surrendered, not even the Russians; but neither has anyone in modern Hollywood read history, so I shouldn’t quibble. Just take my advice and stay away.
>>23361942
Feels bad man
>>23361997
Did this idiot even watch the film?
Its made extremely clear why 5 Americans are fighting 300 Germans. And why 'walking away' would have disastrous consequences. It also does not even slightly portray killing prisoners as a good thing either, that entire scene is disturbing. Or are they referring to the other scene where an SS officer who hung children for refusing to fight is shot? That is not 'anti-German', every other prisoner is spared in that scene.

Some director could make a movie of only Audie Murphy's actions, not change anything, and it would be called unrealistic.
>>23362129
Tom Cruise is tiny enough to play him.
>>23362129
Audie Murphy played himself in the movie about him. Apparently, they had to tone down his accomplishments in the movie to make them believable for the audiences of the time.
>>23362151
And Tom's face is close enough.

Both of those happen exactly once.

Five men in an armored fighting vehicle isn't 'single handedly'
>of 600,
It was estimated to be 300, and it's safe to assume that this was an exaggeration from a relatively green assistant driver who was stressed and panicked.
> but neither has anyone in modern Hollywood read history,
And this jack off has never actually seen the movie that he's reviewing.
>That SS soldier at the end who see's norman underneath the tank and lets him go after getting his whole regiment destroyed

-D-Day
-Iwo Jima
-V.E. Day
-Nuking Japs
-V.J. Day
Is anyone bothered by how hypocritical they were about war trophies?
>german has American coat
>execute him
But then you have all kinds of metals and equipment like pitt's StG44.
So which is it? Why are war trophies only evil when it's your guy dead?
>>23362455
*medals, sorry.
>>23362265
Turn Pitts face to mince. That what they should have done. Two potato mashers going off at point blank rage should fucking pulverize your head.
>>23362262
>>Two grenades practically dropped in Pitt's lap
>>Pristine corpse the next morning
To be fair those were concussion grenades and not fragmentation grenades. Outside of a confined space they have a 2 meter kill zone which is pretty small. Inside a tank it would obviously kill everyone inside.
The shockwave passes through flesh and pulps organs. It wouldn't necessarily tear chunks of flesh off or disfigure people, but it will certainly kill them from the shock wave.

I wasn't really expecting him to look like a pile of hamburger, but I mean something to show that two explosions happened right next to him in a confined space.
Granted, I know nothing about WWII era grenades (did not know those were concussion by the way, thanks) but I would think there would be at least some sort of light marring of clothes or skin from the blast.
I'm basing this off of one of my finer moments: when I lit a pack of fire crackers from the wrong end once when I was drunk, and ended up with blast marks on my shirt and a small burn hole or two.
>>23359019
Please don't I cry every night about how glorious it would have been if japan wasn't a gigantic pussy who didn't attack siberia and italia, well, not being italian.
>>23362769
I'm pretty sure the filmakers were well aware what two grenades would do to someone's face in an enclosed space.
But do you really think they would do that for Brad Pitt? Of course not. Hell, they let his old assistant driver's head get blown off, a tankers upper torso ripped off from a Tiger, and a random German's head squished under a tank, but letting Brad Pitt's glorious face get ripped up? Unheard of.
How bad would it have sounded when a shell hit the side of your tank? Any accounts of this?
>>23362831
Point taken. I guess I just had high hopes that they would maintain a standard of graphic brutality by showing him with some sort of post-grenade damage, even if that meant like sexy wounds highlighting his cheekbones or jaw line or the explosions blowing his uniform off and leaving his body in some GQ pose.
Oh yeah, #nohomo, probably

>>23359030
Seriously, from a military/amateur historian standpoint I see basically no flaws with the movie. It nailed the aspects of the war, of the soldiers, and of war in general.
I could probably find some from the viewpoint of an amateur film critic, but everyone hates those faggots anyways.
>>23357839
because its a fully automatic assault rifle being the most advanced and lethal small arm for its time in history. Also pitt's character has a deep hatred for the SS and most likely grabbed it off of them.
>>23362129
That actually happened.
>>23362129
>That actually happened when they made "To Hell and Back"
>They almost didn't have Audie play himself
>>23362455
Basically, yes.
You hate them, they hate you, you all look for more excuses to kill each other.
>>23362455
Yeah but that's the point- there's no real good guys. That german with the american coat and his buddies would have done the same thing if they had captured brad pitt and found that he had been using an stg44 or saw his medals in the tank.
The whole point is that soldiers are human, and humans have flaws- like hypocrisy
>>23358330
To be fair the panzerfaust only had an accurate effective range of 60m max and was basically a tank grenade that could be thrown further. The panzershreck would have wrecked that tank from concealment had they had one.
This is the only war movie that has made me inadvertently "Yeah! Get those fuckers!" in the theater.
It felt a little weird, but I liked it.
>>23362966
>"They're young. And they're alive."

The WWII history course I took in college was slightly more in depth than this, but basically skimmed everything that wasn't related to Nazi territorial expansion. Then again the professor was basically in give no fucks mode and had like maybe a year left before retirement. Cool old Vietnam vet that cancelled more classes than anyone. Might have been mad because it was the only class I was really interested in that semester, but the complete lack of any sort of work/reading, easy as fuck essay exams, and ample time to do other coursework made up for it. The research paper I wrote was basically just a ten page timeline of the Manhattan project with flowery writing and redundancy to fill in the gaps. A-

It was always burning since the worlds been turning
My only critisism (but this is just nit-picking) is that they made the tracers look like starwars blasters
>>23363041
Not that guy, however, it wasn't a bad scene at all. In fact it was one of the best in my opinion.
>Also a fucking working Tiger rolling out of a hedge
>UUUUUUUUUUUUuuunf
Anyways.
It showed a lull moment in the chaos of war, and the want of Pitt's character to return to a normal life.
Which was interrupted by the rest of the crew and reminded he is still in a war, still in germany, and still their sergeant.
That was the purpose of that scene.
The shelling which led to the death of Emma served as a end to the scene and to tell Norm that this is war. People die.
>>23358931
>shia labeouf who actually acts.
Please tell me he does not try to be a tough guy.
>>23365097
No, he plays his character.
A preacherman with a major moral dilemma about being in a war and the main gunner of the tank.
He frequently crys in the movie and the only time he is seen being a "tough guy" is when he's smiling and cheering after firing the main gun and hitting something.

>That scene where Norm doesn't kill the German kid and the tank in front of them gets hit, and the guy on fire shoots himself.
LOOK AT IT NORMAN
THAT'S YOUR FAULT
>>23364691
The tracer effect has been overdone a tiny bit but I don't think it was too over the top nor unrealistic.

>this scene
>>23365443
Everytime I heard that "KONG" followed by the wobbling sound as the round tumbled into the distance my dick got hard.
>>23361997
>Unarmed, unresisting prisoners with their hands up are executed by our American heroes, something that definitely took place and was done by both the good and bad guys during that terrible war, especially at the end. But to show it as deserved, a comeuppance, is a cheap shot that appeals to anti-German ghouls.
>something happened in a war that the movie is about
>HOW DARE YOU SHOW IT YOU'RE JUSTIFYING THE NAZIS
>>23365450
Jesus Christ that was brutal
>>23365500
That entire scene was great, the way you looked out and saw lots of dead GI's before the tanks started rolling made you nervous since you knew the Germans were waiting.
Then once you saw that a lot of the GI's were still alive and they got up to follow the tanks was amazing, the few that almost got run over was tense as fuck. It was an amazingly well done scene
>>23365497
god damn this scene was horrible, I felt so bad for norman
>>23365532
>the few that almost got run over was tense as fuck
That shit was exactly like some of the shit I saw in the army.

>>23358895
I know that some of us believe that Milsurp has a certain spirit in it, in each rifle and that they are happiest when being used
If that is true, then that Sherman driving around in the muddy fields of England blasting at a Tiger, even if it was blanks, is probably the happiest its been in 70 years. Certaintly a better fate than sitting quietly in a warehouse collecting dust
Its a war machine

Fuck, when Pitt started using the .50, the sound sent a shit ton of huge vibrations throughout my entire body. A big "Holy shit!" moment.
>>23366729
I'm at school, with no movie theater nearby. Closest one is like a 20 minute drive, and my roommates/people with cars aren't interested in the movie.

why does audie murphy have an MG42? His heroism on the tank was with a 50 cal.
>>23366933
Even with the -2, it's still a 10/10. /k/ has been hyping this up for weeks, and I was not disappointed today.
>a tiger getting killed by a sherman
I mean, I know it's possible, but how retarded does your crew have to be?
>>23367206
That 76 with the right ammo could punch through the glacis on a tiger. They don't have to be retarded.
>>23355250
Are you me?
>>23366337
not as bad as it sounds its 4v1 and shermans get rekt
>>23365378
What references?
>>23365396
It's a regular M4A3E8 Sherman. You are saying an M1A2 abrams is not an abrams only the M1 is.
>>23354572
(1998) Saving Private Ryan
(2001) Black Hawk Down
Black hawk down was a great war film.
Anyone got dates for the rest between them?
>>23366337
It's literally an asshole puckering 3v1 where only one tank survives just by managing to squeeze around behind it at the cost of the other 2 shermans.
>>23362609
AS A MADDER OF FACT!
While I give you 1/2 points for being correct about the grenades, they actually had fragmentation sleeves on them.
Interesting little thing that I noticed I thought was rather neat.

That sort of leaves out
The fall of France
The entire Eastern Front

>4 Shermans killing a tiger
If it was more realistic the Shermans should have only lost 1/2 instead of almost all 4.
>>23355250
I literally just did that
>>23353977
It's kind of like Harry Potter. It was ok.
Ending was rambo garbage.
lel on the .50cal for 20 minutes and multiple mg42s miss
lel no one can aim
So any decent torrents yet /k/
fuck camrips
Just can't get past Pitt's stupid face...
...never mind Shia.

>>23358957
How is it a 'saturated genre'. The vast majority of war films are infantry, navy or air force. Tanks are cavalry and boss fights most of the time.
>>23365621
There is no source because they did not destroy it. The Museum is keeping the Sherman in film condition until 2016 as part of a tie in display, there would be no reason to return it to display condition yet.
Is that Shia laboof?
I've made it a point to not watch anything he's in.
I worked too damn hard to get him out of transformers to watch him in something else.
>>23369718
Holy shit, do not tell me you couldn't detect the fucking sarcasm dripping from that post.
Goddamn, nigga.
>>23369730
He did very, very well in this film. Some /k/ommandos may disagree with me, but I almost think he was right up there with Brad Pitt. Even if they disagree with me, I think it's pretty universal of people who have seen the film to think that he did a very good job besides.
My favorite was the latino, though.
>>23369734
That post could and probably would be written exactly the same way if it was serious, what is your point. Sarcasm is rarely obvious in text because it relies on tone of voice mostly.
>>23369780
I am the poster of that comment. It was pure sarcasm, don't worry.
The only 'tank' movie I can think of right off the bat is Kelly's Heroes, and that wasn't really about the tank.
>>23369777
Like many actors Shitlo LeBeef is a fucking turd. However he is actually good at his job. Would suggest you friends watch Lawless, last I checked it was still on the Netflix.
>>23353977
this is bait
there is no way you can actually think that was a 10/10 movie
+it did a great job of showing the horrors of war
-brad pitt topless scene shoehorned in
-cowwadoodie: the movie
-the SS running at the tank like commies
>not just set up a mortar position
-luis stevens
-only one tiger scene
6/10 would watch stream on superchillin
>>23369816
>-cowwadoodie: the movie
Didn't even watch the film did you.
>>23369816
Okay, then what would you have thought made it an "excellent" movie, instead of just 6/10

>>23368731
To be fair the first kill was a surprise attack so it was 3 on one.
And if i remember correctly Fury was the only one left that could still do any considerable damage, I dont know if those shorter barrel Sherman s had rounds that could pierce the tiger but I am shit when it comes to tanks so i could be wrong
>>23369880
Well he was half right.
>>23353977
>it was the best war movie I've ever seen.
Yep, totally not an obvious viral marketer. Nope, nothing to see here!
>>23353977
>best war movie I've ever seen.
Must not have seen very many war movies, plot was hardly there, the final battle was dumb as hell and the characters were dull.
The first battle was well done and the Tiger was cool but the film was nothing special.
>>23370016
The 75-mm M3 (the shorter gun) can do it, but only from close ranges. Knife-fighting, really. It wasn't ideal. That said, Tigers could be, and were, killed by Shermans using the gun in the war.
That having been said, it's somewhat of a myth that only the rear could be penetrated. The upper side hull, what you prominantly see resting above the tracks, was every bit as 'thin' as the rear, but without the reverse slope and with less coverage in the way to interfere with shell dynamics.
The gun that Brad Pitt was using, the 76-mm M1A2, could hole a tiger in the side or the rear from over a thousand yards. It's obvious to us that they were stressing the rear shot to add drama to the scene. But really, it's entirely possible that not every tank crew of the period had intimate knowledge of the Tiger like you and I have the luxury of having.
Nearly had a heart attack today when I realized /k/ommandoes have time traveled back and fought in ww2
