Why do all historically accurate war films have shit direction and generally don't give a fuck?

>Talking to OEF vet
>OMG don't even talk to me about the Hurt Locker
>We used to laugh at that movie
>American sniper was pretty realistic

American sniper was the laziest piece of shit
They green screened a fucking American airbase.
AN AMERICAN AIRBASE.
That's MORE expensive than using the actual thing, it just requires you to put up the effort of flying to Arkansas or whatever.

All the bullet impacts were CGI
Direction was lazy "Get it done" in general, especially the combat.
Don't even get me started on pic related.

Go watch siege of Jadotville.

I felt like I wasted my time,everything was wrong from cast to acting.

Because Americans are stupid and will pay to watch shit blow up while their patriotic dicks get hard.

This is what happens when you eliminate the draft.

Yes it has. The SS hasn't, but we don't draft.

I don't know. But I'm also a father and prior Infantry.

Operating with a baby girl isn't easy.

In fact it's annoying. Don't put your penis inside a girl or it can happen.

We let Kevin Costner live despite his crimes but sacrificed Paul Ruebens for watching porn, disgraceful.

We Were Soldiers, Lone Survivor and Saving Private Ryan (first half hour), Band of Brothers (TV), The Pacific (TV) were all produced with accuracy in mind, or at least portraying the situation as it was. And for the first two mentioned, guys who were actually there helped during the filming to get it as accurate as possible.

Also because politics. I believe it's the French heritage part specifically. If someone tried to start one, they'd never get prime rib.

I had no idea anyone was pissed. I loved it, and most things I read of it were pretty accurate.
>>32923051
Still liked it
>>
>>32922894
>All the bullet impacts were CGI
As opposed to having people offscreen shooting walls rights next to extras?
>>
>>32922894

Probably because it is difficult to make a "real" story conform to narrative structure.
>>
>>32924312

Practical effects, dud. How do you think that action movies were created before CGI? It's the reason why the original trilogy Star Wars movies look better than the CGI-fest prequel trilogy and why Terminator 2 looks amazing even today but the newer Terminator movies are garbage that nobody ever talks about.

Because they don't have to, shit makes money regardless.

They're fucking movies. Go outside, bruh.
