And neither Tom Cruise nor Ben Affleck are in it. NICE!!!

 

[Crimea_River]

I hate it already.

 

[T Bolt]

CG looks pretty bad, and I'm sure they're showing us the best of it in the trailer.

 

[Matt308]

Looks like utter $hit.

 

[bobbysocks]

i dont know...i thought the CGI looked better than the upcoming Red Tails and that's a Lucasfilm..big time production.

 

[kettbo]

Looks like a lotta Hollywood should be edited out

 

[FlexiBull]

Reminds me of when I used to play a mission on B17 "The Mighty 8th" every Friday night, those were the days - - -



- - - that's the trouble with reminiscence, it just isn't what it used to be

 

[Coors9]

I've got a question, how fast does the ball turret travel ? It looked mega fast , maybe it was slow ??? Anyone know ?

 

[Airframes]

One to miss methinks - music similar to 'Memphis Belle', and CGI worse than a comic-book hero flick. And looping a B17 ?!!!

 

[GrauGeist]

What a bummer...and I had my hopes up (a little)

And Terry, there's two ways a B-17 can do a loop:

Hollywood or German Flak...neither of which ya' want to see :/

I dunno, the CGI looks pretty amateurish and the trailer says for 2010. I hope they are behind schedule to make the flying scenes look better.

 

[evangilder]

I don't know about looping a B-17, but during testing of the prototype, it flew into a storm cloud where the turbulence inverted the aircraft. The pilot was able to right it and land safely.

 

[vikingBerserker]

Bummer.....

 

[tbfighterpilot]

Cool

 

[Trebor]

omg that CG is an absolute eyesore.....

 

[Dixon Cannon]

I try not to be critical of other's creative work. I know that budgets are budgets and they all can't be at the 'Spielberg' level. I can't find any other information about the film out at IMDB.com or Google. I look forward to seeing more, just because I appreciate creativity and other's attempts to tell a story. Let's wait and see, shall we? - Dixon Cannon

Nearly brought this one a few days ago...but something kept telling me to put it back on the stores shelf. Having seen the trailer now, I'm glad I did. It looks like the flying sequences were made using something like Microsoft FlightSim 2002 and some Photoshop !!!

Might get a copy later...in a few years...when its down to a few quid / bucks, but only then and after I've had a skin full of the falling down water !

 

[Capt. Vick]

Straight to video then huh? Hahahahaha

The movie whould be better if they hired Tochibayashi. He can really do some realistik CG movie. See his work at.
