for fucks sake

>>28702504
It's completely understandable and expected. All of the men left who actually fought and lived through WWII are in their '90s now and Hollywood can start spinning history now unopposed. Our great grandchildren will grow up knowing that WWII was about spreading American imperialism and that we tortured innocent civilians and used overwhelming force to crush civilian populations.

There hasn't been a good one in at least a decade.

>>28702596
Well I thought The Pacific was good, although that was a mini series and not a movie.....

>>28702581
Well, it was tho.

The Pacific was brilliant. Hanks and Spielberg know how to make good, realistic, and historically-accurate war movies. Band of Brothers is god-tier (also Spielberg).

less-known movie? Letters from Iwo Jima. Made by Clint Eastwood. Told from the Japanese perspective, with japanese actors, spoken in japanese. Beautiful movie, historically accurate.

...Are you 12? That movie is incredibly well-known and popular.

>>28703812
....yes.
What the fuck else would it be about.
An excuse to watch an army of hicks get their shit pushed in by Sherman?

>>28703812
Well, it was tho.

>>28703843
But the war started in 1861, emancipation proclamation didn't happen till 1863

>>28703843
Slavery was just a portion of it. The long and short of it was economics.

>>28703878
So? Even if the EP never happened, it still started because of slavery.
>>28703940
Economics in relation to slavery.
An economic system based on slavery as its most widely used form of labor.
Someone has to pick that cotton. And get whipped.
>>28704034
It was to keep the south from succeeding, for the reason of slavery, you autistic dipshit.

>>28703940
Yeah. The economics of slavery.

>>28704034
Sorry they don't teach "the war of northern aggression" the way you guys have revised it.

>>28703940
>>28704034
Contemporary politics are shit and this is proof. Our "liberals" are pro-government and our "conservatives" are faux-libertarians who defend economic liberty and a plantation/slave economy in the same breath.

I know libertarians love using the American Civil War as a safe conflict where they can practice their disgusting form of historical revisionism, but I'm fucking sick and tired of it.

>>28704034
>IT WAS TO KEEP THE SOUTH FROM SECEDING YOU FUCKING RETARDS FUCKING PUBLIC SCHOOLS

and they seceded because an anti-slavery candidate was elected president

He was so unpopular because of his anti-slavery stance that he didn't even appear on the ballet.

And he didn't even want to proclamate the emancipationing at that point.

Clint Eastwood already did this. Mel could have made the viking movie instead which he has talked about for a long time.
Since he made Apocalypto and used actors that didn't speak english, it looked historically accurate etc. I had hoped for a viking movie with the same authenticity.

>>28704516
holy balls that would be neat.

I probably still wouldn't till it come on FX or tv in general

There's probably a reason the men that took these hills gave them names like that.

I'm just happy he was able too make it back into the system after taking shit about jews and big Hollywood and telling his wife in a recorded call too get raped by a pack of niggers.

I mean both sides kinda fucked up. South tried pulling shady shit like 3/5 compromise. South didn't like the north constantly getting in its business. North didn't want the south trouncing around like they controlled the country so they wanted more sanctions. Slavery was just a means to an end, love Lincoln but ep was just a means to an end. It attacked the south where it mattered most, its economy. He realized that after 2 years of war, which is why 1861 the war starts, 1863 ep, which BTW slavery was only abolished in southern states, Lincoln still needed the border states to be neutral. Which is why in 1865 slavery was abolished everywhere. Slavery was just a means to an end, but then people started saying great emancipator, he went with it

The next HBO WW2 miniseries will be out in 2017/18. About the The Mighty Eighth and based on 'Masters of the Air''.

Scripts are done as of last month, start filming soon. Budget bigger than Band of Brothers and The Pacific. I have high hopes.

People say Pearl Harbor was a surprise attack but establishing a foothold in the country you are invading before it even exists is some meta strategy of the highest level.

Do you really think a grunt private on either side cared a rats ass about niggers? They only ones who did in the south were the few slave owners with big enough plantations to benefit from slave labor and the only ones in the north were some Quaker ministers. The North had replaced niggers with machines and the south wasn't far behind.

>>28710445

That only became relevant when they finally started bombing the Romanian oil synth plants in the last months of the war. The entire campaign was either devoted to dehousing Germans (Which like London, only made the German will to resist highten) or bomb the factories (which were increasingly being replaced with underground sites.)

Speer himself said that if they concentrated their air power on the synth plants for three to six weeks, the war would be over. Everything leading up to those last months was a farce.

This entire thread is cancer

>>28710388
>and they don't roll with the fucking bullshit in that demo reel they put together back in 2013

That was a separate project pitching an independent movie, not related to Masters of the Air

>>28710421
>pretending they did things other than murder civilians

American bombers never intentionally area/carpet bombed with the exception of Berlin.

>>28703812
>For the last ten years we have had numerous and serious causes of complaint against our non-slave-holding confederate States with reference to the subject of African slavery.
Second sentence from the Georgia Articles of Secession

>The people of the State of South Carolina, in Convention assembled, on the 26th day of April, A.D., 1852, declared that the frequent violations of the Constitution of the United States, by the Federal Government, and its encroachments upon the reserved rights of the States, fully justified this State in then withdrawing from the Federal Union; but in deference to the opinions and wishes of the other slaveholding States, she forbore at that time to exercise this right.

*and the fire-bombing the entire surface of japan, directly aimed at the highest civilian centers

U.S. isn't any less guilty of war crimes, we just have very selective textbooks.

>>28711251

One has to remember the ways of Japanese industry were different that German.

>>28711251
>*and the fire-bombing the entire surface of japan, directly aimed at the highest civilian centers

But we're talking about the Eighth. It essentially took FDR's personal persuasion before US bomber command would entertain the thought of bombing anything other than military targets. They were paranoid about their post-war reputation as the air force becoming its own branch depended on it.

Yeah, they killed a ton of civilians and even allied POWs, it was inevitable, but I'd argue that intent matters.

>U.S. isn't any less guilty of war crimes, we just have very selective textbooks.

Compared to the Japanese? They're not even comparable.
