F-80 vs ME262

[FLYBOYJ]

In another thread I mentioned a movie should be made about those two - alot better than some of the crap being made now!

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

That I will agree with. The movies they come out with now are a bunch of crap. They all seem to follow the Pearl Harbor way of doing things which was crap!

"Pearl Harbor sucked, A little more than I miss you"


Yeah crap movie. Tomorrow im treating myself to a DVD, not sure what to buy though. At the moment its between Top Gun and The Aviator.

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

I have the collectors edition of Top Gun. I just bought the Aviator.

 

[cheddar cheese]

Yeah I opted for the Collecters edition of Top Gun too. (As you can probably tell by the sig)

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

It is an all time great.

"TALK TO ME GOOSE!"

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i've never seen it..........

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

You are kidding right?!!!

 

[cheddar cheese]

Id never seen it until a few days ago!

"You were in a 4G inverted dive with a MiG-28?"

 

[evangilder]

Funny how that Mig-28 looked remarkably like an F-5!

 

[FLYBOYJ]

Funny how that Mig-28 looked remarkably like an F-5!

Yep! And how it could carry an Exocet!

 

[evangilder]

What made it worse for me is I first saw that in the base theater. There was a lot of chuckling going on with the aviation inaccuracies.

 

[FLYBOYJ]

It was entertaining

 

[evangilder]

But I will admit the flying scenes in that movie are first rate.

 

[FLYBOYJ]

I liked they way they simulated the pitching and rolling.

 

[evangilder]

Yeah, that was great. There is one scene where the F-14 lights the burners up. You hear the whoosh and see the swirling vortices behind it. That scene always makes me say "Oh YEAH!"

 

[cheddar cheese]

Funny how that Mig-28 looked remarkably like an F-5!

Indeed


Yeah its a good film though.

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Yes it is by far not the most realistic naval aviation movie ever gut it is still a great movie and it definatly was recruited a lot of people into the navy.

I just remember being in love with Kelly McGuilles (spelling?)!

 

[P38 Pilot]

Im going to watch Hamburger Hill or Band of Brothers: Disc two tonight.

Oh and Pearl Harbor Sucked on Ice!

 

[cheddar cheese]

Have a Band Of Brothers marathon...stay in bed and watch em all in a row. I did
