Angel of the Skies...
« on: November 28, 2013, 12:27:28 AM »
it's a new movie by a south african director, so i am keen to see it - i'm going to watch it tonight. 8)
it has mediocre reviews, so don't expect anything great if you do watch it, but it is the kind of movie i think most of us are at least interested in knowing about...



will report back after watching it...  ;)

apparently some of the CGI scenes are pretty bad, but overall it's a decent movie...
well, this is what i hear prior to seeing it, though... ;)

I must say, it is strange seeing Bf-109 Es attacking British B-24s!  ;D
Honestly, if you're going to go to the effort of making a film on the subject, how do you end up with COMPLETELY the wrong sort of aircraft?

Lol, I see where the terrain looks just like CloD in WOH Trailer.

But with TF Patch the terrain looks much better than that in the Trailer:



Sorry for OT Eugene.

~Mike

why completely wrong?
It has german guns and german balkenkreuzen.
so it is not "completely" wrong


and it does not even matter!
they could have used Zeroes and i would not have complained.
The Liberator is such an ugly Piece of Machinery, only focussed on function, not at the very tiniest bit on form...
anything that shoots it down gets a silent nod of approval
even Emils.

The only report I know about Bf-109-Es encounters with B-17s is when Swiss Emils had to intercept Flying Fortresses in the Swiss sky...
