What is the best ever mini-series and why is it Generation Kill?
dekalog, berlin alexanderplatz and and heimat i & ii, all better faggot, now delete the thread and kill yourself
>>62767214
That's a weird way to spell Band of Brothers.
>i'm american therefore if a movie/show doesn't involve gunfire and explosions every two scenes i can't watch it
>>62765501
Generation kill was the GOAT miniseries for me as well
>>62765501

>In a world without consequences and propaganda, our stories would be perfect!
>Except when our story makes every seem better than it really was, muddle the actual story and turn an entire war into one, ten hour long recruitment video.
>>62767521
>muddle the actual story and turn an entire war into one
>turn an entire war into one
>entire war
I didn't know the Pacific and the Western front were the entire war. There are other series which cover other aspects of the war.
>Captain America was a real person
>they didn't even show the most ridiculous shit he did
I'm baffled how someone who's clearly not right in the head got to command people.
>tfw the most badass soldier was a Jew IRL
true master race
>>62765501
riiiight behind Band of Brothers, but i fucking love GK .. so many quotables kek
>At least my mom took me to NASCAR!
>>62767733
That's not Fruity Rudy.

Band of brothers except for the last episode skipped the pacific entirely and had very little in the way of showing horrors of war besides Buck dropping his helmet and giving a theater performance in the middle of a forest.
I juxtaposed the Pacific because in a lot of ways, it had BoB moments but it showed a lot of why those guys hated the fucking war. I felt like BoB made people want to sign up to fight bs and was told in a manner that was very spielberg.
I'm sorry, if your story is being told right, you should not want to fight in a war.

Welcome to the suck.
arent tom hanks and spielberg doing another war mini-series about the fighter pilots or something?
>>62767733
He is a Nord, he was adopted.
Yeah, at least for war miniseries. GK actually confronted the horrors of war but kept them in stride and even managed to have a black sense of humor about it, like "yeah a bunch of people just got killed due to sheer incompetence that was entirely preventable if one vector of communication hadn't failed but fuck it the sun's gonna rise tomorrow like it always does".
That and the wonderful quoteables that make up at least a quarter of every hour long episode.
>>62767705
Fucking screwby
why is BoB the only good series ever that is about soldiers/military?
>>62767705
I don't know, how does a nation allow someone who had fewer votes than his opponent become president
>>62765501
I like it because it triggers naziboos
>>62767860
band of brothers portrayed it all perfectly imo. and to a lesser extent private ryan.
if watch the jump on d-day and want to join up to be a paratrooper that's the fault of the audience, not the show.
i would much rather prefer combat be portrayed accurately and as realistic as possible rather than have "horrors of war" cliches shoved into the camera at every moment. i.e. the pacific and fury
>>62767934
American fighter pilots? Boring.
>>62767860
BoB is more like a monument to Easy Company to honor their deeds, while Pacific is more about the horrors of war in the Pacific. They're both amazing and the best stuff HBO ever released.
>>62768226
>>62767934
Actually it's about bomber pilots.
>>62768309
cool, thanks. I wasnt sure exactly what it was about, could only remember it had to do with flying.
Vietnam mini series when?
>>62767238

What's worse captain America or a desk jockey who doesn't even know what danger close is?

>>62771837
He's talking about the character not the actor.
>>62765501
Does Darkplace count as a miniseries?
PO LEEECE THAT MOOOOOSETACHE
