You guys were talking about this a few days ago and I just watched. Holy shit it was awesome.
Any more good naval films?

Hornblower is GOAT boat show.Seriously check it out.
>>70852758
Fuck off to tumblr or reddit SJW, we dont take kindly to your types around here!
>>70852758
Thanks that looks perfect.
>>70852565
Not really, not as good as that.
There are these though:
Crimson Tide (submarine)
Das Boot (submarine)
Run Silent, Run Deep (submarine)

>Hornblower is GOAT
You are absolutely right there anon.
>>70853051
Im pretty sure he thought about Victorian era ships, Horatio Hornblower series is last fresh addition every other is pretty old wish they made more of these,
>>70852565
WTF I hate the French now
>>70852565
I was happy to find the 2 disc edition at a cheap second hand store other month.
>>70852565
Is this the pirate version of Das Boot?
>>70852565
Das Boot and The Hunt for Red October senpai. Enjoy.

Don't fall for it OP. I got suckered into it too

Are you actually retarded?

That doesn't sound like "I'm not a woman"
I loved it until they decided to insert the bizarre subplot, presumably from the book, about the guy who failed to ever be promoted and thus had bad luck. Really strange little insertion of what amounts to magic in a very realistic movie.
>>70856687
The fuck you talking about magic for, the doctor even mentions how stupid the sailors are with there superstitions.
The guy was on duty both times they were attacked and he wasn't a very good sailor hence no promotions.
>>70856687
What magic? Just bad luck and random coincidence. Realistically showing superstitiousness of sailors really fits into movie.
>>70856755
>>70856811
The film clearly intends the "Jonah curse" as a real thing. Right after Russel Crowe finishes his eulogy, instantly, the wind picks back up and it rains.
>>70852611

>>70856972
how can you miss the point that hard
>>70856972
That's why its a superstition because coincidences happen like that all the time.
But no your right they thought they would add Gandalf but he was busy.
>>70857084
What's the point then, oh enlightened one?
>>70857086
No wind at all for days, constant rain and wind right after Hollom's funeral is held. The chances of those events randomly coinciding are nearly astronomical. Very obviously intentional.
>>70852565
The Sea Hawk and Captain Blood are fun swashbuckling movies starring Errol Flynn.
>>70857129
its a fucking movie you realize that right? They need "dramatic" moments like that to entertain people.
>>70852565
With tallships? Not much.
Tried watching this on netflix, all it was was random abstract shapes bumping into each other with white noise in the background. My friend came over and he said it looked great, wtf?
>>70857372
think it might be a tumour mate
>>70852611
My wife didn't get it either but me & her boyfriend really like it
>>70857186
So it's a movie that blatantly panders to audiences with absurd unrealistic moments? Why do we like it again?
is Michiel de Ruyter good?

Bitch
This one. The biggest number of naval battles in a single movie I've ever seen.
>>70852758
Yeah Hornblower is good but the other one is Marvel tier ship fun
>>70857992
And this maybe. It's absolutely god-tier but it's not your typical naval movie.
>>70858052
This was super great
Has anyone seen this? I watched the scene from Master and Commander where they're on the Galapagos Islands and immediately thought of something like this. I know there's also an old-timey series about Captain Cook.
>>70852565
I haven't seen anyone mention Bounty... Fucking plebs.
>>70852611
BITCH
LEAVE GODDAMN IT
TAKE YOUR FUCKING AXE WOUND AND LEAVE MY EXCLUSIVE GENTLEMEN'S CLUB
And another one. I highly recommend it. It's not as "deep" as the book but it does the only reasonable thing by focusing on the story and the Ahab-whale relation.
Moby Dick looks great.
>>70858600
A bit underwhelming. Maybe it's the effects or unnecessary changes from the real events but I would recommend everyone to see it at least once.
>>70853160
Both of these
>>70858589
Samefag.
>>70858635
And finally this one. Surely the story wasn't THAT great to require five fucking movies. This is the latest and the only one I've seen. Blight deserves a biopic for fucking up three times in history (Bounty, Australian rebelion and Cook's death).
>>70853160
this are the only good suggestions in this thread.
there aren't a lot of great naval movies. mutiny on the bounty is pretty good too.
>>70857129
>No wind at all for days, constant rain and wind right after Hollom's funeral is held. The chances of those events randomly coinciding are nearly astronomical. Very obviously intentional.
The events of the movie jump around in time and it's not at all obvious that weeks or months have passed. It's all in the books though
>>70857129
"Calm before the storm" is a saying for a reason anon, ships were regularly becalmed before a big storm. In this instance it happened to coincide with some superstitious drama among the crew.
Sailors are stereotyped heavily in this era as being extremely superstitious, so this part of the movie makes perfect sense. It has nothing to do with magic and everything to do with sailors treating coincidences as if it were magic, which is stuff that actually happened pretty frequently in that era.

Bligh is unfairly maligned because of the movies and other media in the recent past taking christians' side completely and twisted events for dramatic effect. Historical accounts don't indicate any huge issues with Bligh, though he could have handled things better it was a long rough journey and Christian certainly wasn't blameless (nor was a good deal of the rest of the crew).
The worst thing Bligh did was allow discipline to lapse somewhat on the long stay at Tahiti while collecting trees.
You should remember he was cleared of wrongdoing and many of the conspirators/mutineers were hanged, and Bligh was appointed governed/rear admiral many times as time went on, and ended his career as a vice admiral.

>It's not as "deep" as the book
That goes without saying fambles.
>>70859010
>Sailors are stereotyped heavily in this era as being extremely superstitious
Its not a sterotype if its true. These guys were on these ships for months or years at a time and possibly not running into another soul. They were at the mercy of god, the oceans, luck, fate, nature or whatever you want to call it. All of which are so much bigger than men in a wooden toy. You were superstitious because its the only way to create some sense of things so far out of their control.
>>70858688
No actually.
>>70859346
There's still some internal monologue but of course Ishmael doesn't spend time thinking about the color white (my favorite chapter desu).
>>70859498
I didn't say the stereotype wasn't valid.

It's weird, I tried watching Hornblower because I heard it was even better than Master & Commander, but it was just more of the same stuff. Big boring ships and lots of talking, occasionally some action which is cool I guess.
The guys in it were pretty cute, though!
Goat naval movie coming through
