I think this trailer's intent was to show how "action packed" the series will be. The innaccuries are a pain though as mentioned already, lack of oxygen masks, proper footing on the cameraman, stars and bars on both wings etc. On the positive side the rendering of the bomber formation gives a good sense of how massive these formations could be though the graphics leave much to be desired. I will for sure take a look at this one.

Shinpachi, your CGI projects are some of the most accurate projects I have ever seen.
There is no way the CG models in these movies could ever compare to your work. As a matter of fact, these movie producers could certainly benefit from your expertise if they ever wished to have accuracy in thier movies.

I agree with the guys too. Perhaps, Shinpachi san, you should get in touch with the producers, and offer your advice and expertise. It would be a shame to see a potentially excellent series ruined by such poor CGI - although there is also a lot more for the production company to adjust too!
Agree with that Terry!

Completely agree about Shinpachi's CG skills.
But I'll take a WWII movie with bad CGI, wrong decals, no masks so you can see what the actors are saying over all the other crap movies Hollywood keeps delivering. Hopefully the acting and script will make up for any shortcomings, otherwise we will have another "Red Tails" movie.

I agree. I think based solely on the teaser trailer that it is in early production and not even close to being finished. That said...at least the bomb crew in this teaser had actual emotion compared to the Red Tails bomb crews. "...Those glory grabbing bastards!" <- worst line in WWII movie history lol

I could not understand the Zero's flying between battleship row as if they were in the Star Wars canyon ... Soooo Bad !Now Terry...even if it turns out to be a poor production, watch Pearl Harbor first!
Neither do I.Last thing I want to do after work talk on a dang phone!

Even John Wayne and his Flying Tigers looks better after that awful PH movie!

Amen brother!
It took less than 30 seconds before Hollywood was rewriting WW2 again
The first Mighty 8th raid on Germany didn't take place until January 1943.
If they are that inattentive to facts I really don't hold out much hope for this movie.

I might be being overly unfair, but, so far, this makes PH look like a factual documentary !

PH is a factual documentary. It's a fact that Kate Beckinsale is hot.
