How in the hell did you reach that conclusion?

The trailer can give you nice visuals, but it was the characters that made Band of Brothers great. I hope The Pacific is the same.

Umm yea it's different scenery. All those islands they had to go to. Not all islands looked the same. Germany/France/Belguim all look the same as well.

I can't wait for this, but i've gotta wait to watch the trailer at home.

I think they could have done a series on the book Battlecry by Leon Uris. Would be great.

Thats one damned high minded and philosophical soldier doing the narrating. Needs more racial slurs.

Holy shit. I'm sold. Looks a lot more "professional" than BoB (characters aren't as fun/chummy?).

And how would it be politically correct to remove that?
Correctly portraying how a lot of American soldiers thought then? Or perhaps it might be a quote?
Do you really think Hanks/Spielberg are bigots?

I have to agree that for accuracy the racial slurs should be in it.

God created Japs too, right? There is one. Only one I remember though.

Also remember the tits.

If Clint Eastwood in it, then it's almost a necessity. :heart: Gran Torino

I can't wait for this. I heard about it last year or so and have been pumped. Band of Brothers is the greatest TV/Miniseries/Movie ever.

After the Pacific it would be great if they made a Vietnam War series.
