Tora Tora Tora...

Is it just me, or do other people play these movies endlessly on the TV while playing wargames like these...

Midway was good, but not as good as TTT. I hated the romantic subplot. Romantic subplots in war movies always seem fake.

"Pearl Harbor" nearly made me throw up; it felt like a tarnish on the memory of that day, I mean in the context of all that treachery and death and destruction who REALLY CARES if some chick gets knocked up and can't decide who she wants the daddy to be?

Well, at least it taught me that the best way to kill a CGI Zero is to lure two of them into crashing into each other. I was surprised they didn't have Yamamoto fighting Yoda.

Hehe

It was insufferably bad. Essentially a chic-flik that they tricked the guys into watching (at least part of) by the presumed subject matter.

How about this:

Character 1: "But they aren't trying to kill YOU"
Character 2: "Then why are they shooting at me?"

Yamamoto fighting Yoda would have been an improvement

Well done, PBY. Too much soap in the movie for my taste. But, I do love the way Douglas delivers that line...

Pearl Harbor was so stupid. I liked the attack sequence, until I saw the USS Oklahoma. Seeing as I live in the state of Oklahoma, I tend to study that battleship fairly closely. When it capsizes, it rolls over, jumps out of the water (the entire hull is above water, the deck is resting on the water, the superstructure was submerged). Pretty crappy if you ask me.

In Harm's Way was an awsome movie to me, but the ending naval battle was pretty cheesy, because you could see each spark coming out of the guns on the models, and it killed any atmosphere that they were real. Sink the Bismark did a lot better job of making it feel real.

i wrote an alternate history on the attack on pearl harbor a couple of months back and i had tora, tora, tora, in harms way, death of the arizona, couple of pearl harbor history channel dvds playing on my laptop while i wrote on my desktop.

how bad did it get? when i was stationed in germany in the mid 70's the choice of alcohol to consume during an evening of wargaming depended on what nationality you were playing (and us ships were NOT dry in our games). how is that for anal.

No Wayne, you mean "how good did it get" don't you?

Those were indeed the days... did all the same things!

Hello...

I concur on "Midway" and "Pearl Harbor". I liked the romantic sub-plot in "In Harm's Way".

Maggie Hanes was hot...
