Hi /k/, just sat down and watched Fury. I enjoyed it and thought it was alright and hard some good action - even if the last part was slightly unbelievable.

What are your thoughts on Fury?

What are other good /k/ approved tank movies?
>>
>>29488526
Im not autistic with tanks so I enjoyed the movie a lot.
The tank battles were really cool to see, but the plot and the guys fighting on the ground looked like pure garbage.

Marching Fire was official US tactic back then though.

IMO the first two thirds of the film are outstanding and the last part so over the top Ramboish that it levels the movie down to average. There are a number of inaccuracies that will upset autists, but personally I highly appreciate that they took old tanks out of museums.
Also liked the moral ambivalence that showed that both Germans and Americans are dehumanized by war. Even goes so far to differentiate between SS soldiers, which is quite rare for American films.

The last scene was bad, I found it stupid that the Germans couldn't hit the tank a single time with all the panzerfausts. Other than that, it was okay.

Some other tank movies are "The Beast" which is set in the Soviet war in Afganistan and "Sahara" with Humphrey Bogart, WWII classic.
Also, if you are into fantasy movies you could try the Battle of the Bulge, where both the Germans and the Americans face off against each other in the Belgian desert in american made tanks.

What is up with tank movies and deserts...?

Flaming pile of shit.

The "battles" were laughable, especially the first one and then later the city fight. No regards for realism or tactics. They thought that one vintage tank was enough to satisfy that requirement, and they can go comic book Hollywood on the rest.

Not even going to mention the last stand or the Tiger duel because at that point I was already so annoyed I minimized the player window and was doing something more interesting: like doing my taxes in Excel.

Stop making excuse for horribly trained extras that they used in that battle scene.

I loathe how they tried to make it super gritty, with retarded shit like having the burning tankers hit by a Pfaust jump out and commit a spectacular suicide in the middle of the road while gazing deeply into Bradley Pitler's eyes.

Or the sniper in the town picking off Ol' granpa, because Nazis prefer to shoot at senior citizens rather than unbuttoned tankers with plot armor.

Or the retarded ass Nazis concentrating in the attic of the most exposed building so they can be elegantly blown up with a single HE round.

Fucking retardation all around.

Obviously the creators of the film.

They even admit it in the commentary. One of the "historical accuracy" advisers spouted off some retarded cliche about it "taking 5 Shermans to blow up a Tiger".

That is LITERALLY the basis for this movie.

The film is literally created off a meme. You must feel pretty stupid.

And care to demonstrate a single historical engagement in which 6 Shermans went up against a Tiger and lost 5 tanks and then destroyed the Tiger I?

Kind of strange considering that there were literally two engagements in France when American forces even saw a Tiger tank.

The British were the ones that fought against the SS Panzers around Caen and got their asses kicked pretty hard.

There were several engagements where groups were ambushed and took heavy losses.

Americans did not commit fucking war crimes with such casual ease. People were way more principled back then.

There are no areas on a Sherman that were resistant to a Panzerfaust HEAT jet.

So basically, you pro-Fury dick-sucks have no arguments except to get into Reddit-style semantics games?

Pretty simple: prove the 5 vs 1 cliche which this movie is based on.

overall excellent movie. how often do you see a REAL tiger tank in a movie. maybe just a little over the top with the tracers, thought i was watchin' star wars for for a minute or two. the ending was a little weak also in that a few well placed panzerfaust would have made quick work of the crew.

No, they didn't flank it. Walking towards it then trying to walk 50 feet around it, isn't flanking, they had miles of fields with plenty of cover they could have gone through instead. All you've got to do then is hit it from the rear, unless the turret is facing rearwords at that particular time, there's not much the tank can do if it can't move.

If anyone cares, I was a Tanker in the Army and deployed to Iraq, so my opinion might matter to you, it might not. Whatever.

IMO the movie had really good parts and really bad parts.

I thought the good parts were
>gore
>mud, filth, etc
>gunshots, tracers, explosions
>frustration
>crew interaction
>showing the Americans weren't your stereotypical hero types

The bad parts
>3 Jews, a Mexican. Only Brad Pitt is White
>The Tiger scene
Even at that late stage in the war (April 1945), only experienced crews were allowed to touch a Tiger. An experienced crew would have no doubt destroyed every one of those Shermans in the allotted time in the open like that. I know it's just a movie, but that scene was particularly hard to watch, knowing it was an actual Tiger, and the fact it was taking so long for it to load, barely moved, sat out in the open, and missed almost every shot. Not to mention it hit Fury in the side armor, with no effect.
>The finale
Pure hollywood garbage, but again, it's a movie, and like someone else pointed out, you could maybe explain it away by saying "oh it was the end of the war, and they were idiots by that time" but infact, the leaders were mostly all hardened combat veterans at that point and were smart enough to know how to stay alive. Any sensible commander would not have engaged a tank without the proper means to take it out. My first thought would have been to distract in the front with harassing fire, while a small panzerfaust team circles around to fire one up their ass.

Overall I enjoyed it, but the Tiger scene and the finale really took the movie from a 10/10 to a 5/10 for me.
>>
>>29492935

I'm a pretty ardent Wehraboo myself, but I'd like to point out that the Sherman 76's could have penetrated the Tiger's frontal hull with regular AP at under 600m - even further with HVAP which was more plentiful near the end of the war. The dramatic circle-strafing would have been completely unnecessary.

well, the again, the germans did like to line the sides of the tank with ammo racks...

The Tiger was in trouble as soon as they hit it with WP and made it advance on them to be able to see it, but none of that was particularly inaccurate. The only inaccurate bit was Fury or the other 76mm armed sherman not being able to put rounds through the front of it.

Second Tank of Kliment Voroshilov is without fault. Can be used in 1945 just as well as 1941. Mighty 152mm howitzer is capable of destroying any capitalist or fascist tank with a simple diagonal shot. Only Soviet tanks are proof against such firepower due to having armor of the people.

It was nothing past Russian propaganda masquerading as an avant garde art piece. I mean that literally. It was Soviet produced propaganda and it showed with mediocre production, cinematography, acting, and technicals.

/k/ slobbing the knob of that film is like jumping on a Reich propaganda piece like Jud Süß or Der Ewige Jude. Same kind of shit.

I haven't seen the movie, but from what I've heard they used and abused the Sherman and Tiger 131 and then told Bovington to go fuck themselves when they asked them to pay for repairs.

I enjoyed it a lot, one of my favorite recent war movies. Thought the portrayal of the tank was badass and offers pretty good footage for a tank movie. Sure the ending was somewhat unrealistic, but Audie Murphy did hold of a couple hundred germans himself with an M2, granted in daylight in an open field.
