Does /tv/ love Band of Brothers?
I just watched it for the first time (bought it for $10 on blu ray during black friday) and was stunned at how fucking great it was.
yea it's great .. after a recent watch though, Generation Kill is better

Its one of three miniseries people ever remember.
The other two being generation kill and the Pacific
>>63234042
Need to get The Pacific and Generation Kill. I'm still waiting for HBO to do a Nam mini series
>>63234228
Don't forget John Adams and North and South
The combat is not gritty enough. Too much like an action movie
>>63234228
>Its one of three miniseries people ever remember.
dumbass
watch more movies
>>63234076
I related more to generation kill for its accurate portrayal of modern-day military, but I think BoB is the better series

>>63234337
how is this? I read the books and I liked it, but I can only imagine so much shit happens in this
also, what language do they speak? is it portuguese or did they push in some english instead?
>>63234293
>not gritty enough
>people losing their limbs, bleeding all over and screaming out in pain isn't gritty enough
>>63234397
not him but
>some english
its almost all english
>>63234288
No one remembers those
>>63234489
just wondering because they were supposed to be 2 european languages in teh book that they would switch over between.
is there a spicy hot-tempered spaniard in here?
>>63234404
yeah hundreds and hundreds of Germans just being mowed down without a single american casualty
>>63234288
>John Adams
Too good for this world
>>63234615
Germans just suck shit at fighting
>>63234615
I don't know how true it is, but that part was in the book.
>>63234076
Have you read the book for GK? It's really good.
>>63234655
They were actually probably the best overall at fighting in WW2
>>63234560
its mostly them narrating over the lines if i remember right. not too sure about the story.
my family usual hates subs and they watched our copy 100 times over the years.
>that scene with the two guys from Oregon fighting on different times talking to each other and the guy fighting for Germany gets executed
>that part where the two guys each lose their right legs from mortar fire and try to play it off
>>63234076
>>63234310
BoB is definitely better than GK, but I did enjoy GK.
>>63234757
I've read both as well and I thought again BoB was a lot better. The Generation Kill book was good but seem to drag on a fair bit at times.
Have you read Dispatches?
>>63235114
>Have you read Dispatches?
No, but it looks interesting. Thanks.
>>63235714

Herr was involved in the production of Apocalypse Now and FMJ
>>63234042
I just turned one of my old high school bros onto it. He texted today to say its one of his new favs.
>tfw you let your bro without cable start leaching your amazon prime account

>>63234639

>its a buck took everything the krauts could throw at him, but couldn't stand to see his friends torn up like that episode

Gimli is the Portuguese pilot. Make sure you get the miniseries and not the neutered 2 hour theatrical version.
