Recently watched Samurai X / Ruoronin Kenshin from ep 1 to 95 (again - took about 3 or 4 days) ..you just can't beat a story like that, except with a reverse blade sword, that it is...
Now I just need to get the final OVA/film - where he dies after returning from 1890's Korea into Karou's arms...

Nothing apart from a M14A1 says manlyness like a reverse blade sword/katana/wakizashi.... ...if your living in the uk, a BB or AEG-BB is the closest you can get to legal rifle
 
Captain America.
A good surprise, anti-dumb hero, dark atmosphere and a great superbad German flying his Horten like America bomber !
 
Me too! One of my favorite war pictures. I loved seeing all the carrier actions with those blue F9F Panthers and that HO3 helicopter (I used to love drawing that one when I was a kid). I did notice some F2Hs on the carrier that were light grey. I am not sure that is correct color scheme for the Korean war. I read in Wiki that the F9Fs did not really bomb the bridges portrayed in the movie in that they could not carry the necessary bomb loads. They did participate in anti-aircraft suppression. Interesting note: in the book the plane used was the F2Hs Banshees.

Dav, if you liked that you might like "Launch 'Em.' It's a comic short film that was made by a squadron that spoofs carrier ops. How they got it made is anyone's guess but its legendary fare in CV ready rooms.

The ship, CV-19, is the Pre-27C modified USS Hancock on which I did a very eventful 2 week carrier qualification detachment in 1972.

I'm a little shocked Wayne, you've seen The Leage of Extranodinary Gentlemen, but not Bram Stokers Dracula!? - ok Keanue's (spelling) in it, although he's less "Whoa! I think left my gas on?" Speed a like in it thankfully... Still I'm awaiting the possible Bill Ted 3.

Seriously fething funny, a real good film, a little bit 32 going on 18-ish humour, but the flow, story, progression and package is a modern guys 'quivering stiff upper lip' film (awww, so it almost makes you a lttle bit misty eyed *Sarge's voice - from Red Vs. Blue*)
