great Gene Hackman movies.
I think Gene Hackman is the most watchable actor of all time.

That said, while I think the Russian CITIZENRY should be applauded for standing up to the technologically superior German army despite losing millions of people, Stalin should never be considered (no matter what part of the war) as some heroic stand-in for their citizens or military. I think the lack of ability for some people to disassociate leaders from their people can make it hard... like somehow giving the Russians any credit for standing up to Germany and holding Stalingrad for as long as they did is somehow giving Stalin credit. If it were up to me, my script would probably read something like this: "Russian forces withstood brutal attacks from the Germans, stalling their advances with the aid of American resources in the forms of arms, ammunition, and logistical support, buying time for Western forces to marshal their own militaries in preparation for pushing Germany on the Western front." "Meanwhile, Stalin was still a count."
Good post, and accurate.
The Russian people in WW2 fought for patriotism, nationalism, and many other isms that were all pretty noble. Stalin cynically used that for his own ends which was pretty much solely the consolidation of his personal power.

Hopefully this is actually historically accurate and not woke garbage.
It will be what all of these types of things are these days - historically accurate, but not historically complete. For instance, yes we were generally pretty racist against the Japs. But they leave out how imperialist Japan was one of the single most racist cultures in all of history. Yes, we did dehumanize the Japs and were much less likely to take them prisoner. But they leave out that the Japs were absolutely fanatical and routinely fought to the last man and faked injuries and faked surrender to take out Americans who were trying to help them. Americans couldn't trust them even in surrender so they had to kill them or risk being killed themselves.
Yes we were more likely to take Germans prisoner and treat them better, but the average German soldieralso generally behaved more like a Westerner.
The Pacific was a nasty fricking war on both sides from start to finish, and all the tut-tutting and lecturing by the likes of people like Tom Hanks will never change that.

I don't want to say to much but I just caught wind of this story. I'm not sure how long this trial has been going on but she hasn't aged well. If you want these pictures you would have loved the pictures a maybe a couple videos from around 2003 in college.I started dating my Ex and thought I should probably delete them when it started getting serious. But I had plenty of wild nights with her in college but I was welcome at apartment anytime. She was really in shape and from those pictures I dont think she had surgery, they look smaller. They were huge in college. We were together for one reason and didnt have many conversations without me being full of whiskey. But this really blew my mind, I would've never thought this was something she would do. But i havent seen her since around 2007. If I remember right I think her family owned that four wheeler shop on the right when entering Deridder. I'm going to have make some calls to find out everything. I actually know some people that has to know more. And reading who is involved in the case i might know several of them, Ive said enough, if you see the pictures just picture what she looked like at 20-21yrs old. I just cant imagine her kids being able to look at her the same. I cant imagine having to look at my son and explain why i chose to ruin our family and apologizing why i ruined his life
youve come to the right place

i look forward to fully half of this show convincing everyone that women and black people made up about 80% of the Allied effort and the other half lecturing us on how racist we were against the Japs.

How fricking retarded does one have to be to visit the middle east and just assume it's safe? I know Dubai is probably the best place in all of the middle east, but it's still in an incredibly unstable region. I'll never understand the attraction to that region. I wouldn't be caught dead visiting the middle east.

Crimson Tide is peak young Denzel + peak old Hackman made during a time that Hollywood was still churning out bangers. it's almost a perfect movie.

you're probably right as far as pure quality goes, but if i just sit down to watch an Indy movie on a whim, it's almost always ToD. it's just so fun. the cold open in Shanghai, the unsettling visit to the village rolling right into the threatening and sinister approach to Pankot Palace, the bonkers Kali ritual, the mine car ride, the bridge, the crocs....dude, it's just such a fun ride from start to finish.

hmm. fair point.
