Re: The Pacific
I don't subscribe to HBO, so I'll wait and buy the DVD set when it comes out....just like I did with Band of Brothers. I think this will be nails too, just like Band of Brothers, and I'll probably end up watching it 10-15 times too. My son and I have Band of Brothers weekend where we watch the entire series....will probably have to do the same with Pacific, and I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Re: The Pacific
This would be a most excellent time to click on the "free HBO for 2 months" link on AT&T's shit website.
I might even pay the bill... nah, fuck that.

Re: The Pacific
Definitely in! I watched the History Channel's series "WWII in HD", and it was mostly on the PTO ( Pacific Theater of Operations), and it was freaking brutal! You will see lots of backlash of this series from the Japanese. Those bastatrds were tough as nails, but also psychotic as a nation. When the U.S. took Saipan, half of the civilian population killed themselves, their kids, ....cutting their throats...throwing them off of cliffs, cause the Japanese told them that the Americans would rape, pillage and plunder....which is what THOSE bastatrds did, not the U.S. Hard stuff to watch.
Anyway ...I will be watching, and RACK!!!!! all military vets that saw and lived through such brutality and lack of humanity. Especially you BF.

Re: The Pacific
I'm watching Band of Brothers with my 8 year old son for the first time. He loves it. His grandfathers both fought in WWII and fortunately my son has had the opportunity to know them. We're in Episode 9 when E company runs across the death camp. I'm gearing myself up to explain that to him, and I look over and see that my son has fallen asleep and I was grateful, no one should ever have to see that, but everyone should have to see it if you know what I mean. What a bunch of evil cocksuckers and the Japs might have been more evil than the fucking Germans. One of the things I love about Band of Brothers is that I never knew my dad when he was that age, of course, but I can imagine what he was like in his 20's, honed to the razor's to the most serious enemy the world has ever known.

Re: The Pacific
My dad played a small role in "the raid at los banos' in the phillipines http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raid_at_Los_Ba%C3%B1os considered to be the most successful raid in modern history. My dad drove an amphipian tractor and helped ferry the freed pow's across the lake. He broke down when he tried to tell how happy those pow's were to see them. Over 2000 prisoners rescued.

Seriously. A response like that begs this question - Instead of a brain, what is in your head? I am guessing some form of excrement? Cow would be to passe'. I am thinking.....some form of swine. Or something more exotic. llama perhaps? No...I have it......whale shit!

Not to mention cannibalism. It wasn't widespread, but there were plenty of cases where the Japanese ate their human POWs to internalize their fighting spirit and to feed themselves after being shutoff from their supply train.

Re: The Pacific
One the stories in this series is apparently this guys story, or so I've been told:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Basilone

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Basilone

Dude gets the CMOH, comes home and does the War Bond circuit but can't stand it and wants to go back to combat. He's denied time and time again and finally they allow him to go. He gets killed at Iwo Jima.While on Guadalcanal his fellow Marines gave him the nickname "Manila John" due to his former service in the Philippines with the Army.[3] On October 24, 1942 he engaged the Japanese in the Lunga area with his unit when their defensive positions came under attack by a Japanese regiment of appoximately 3000 soldiers. The Japanese forces began a frontal attack using machine-guns, grenades and mortars against the American heavy machine-guns. The American forces fought for the next 48 hours until only Basilone and two other men from his squad were still able to continue fighting. Basilone moved an extra gun into position and maintained continual fire against the incoming Japanese forces. He repaired another machine-gun and personally manned it, holding his line until replacements arrived. With the continuous fighting, ammunition was becoming critically low and the supply lines cut off, Sgt. Basilone risked his life by fighting through hostile lines and returning with urgently needed ammunition for his gunners. By the end of the battle, the Japanese regiment was virtually annihilated. For his actions during this battle he received the United States military's highest award for bravery, the Medal of Honor.[4]
Afterwards Private First Class Nash W. Phillips, of Fayetteville, North Carolina, recalled him from the battle for Guadalcanal: "Basilone had a machine gun on the go for three days and nights without sleep, rest or food". "He was in a good emplacement, and causing the Japs lots of trouble, not only firing his machine gun but also using his pistol."[3]

Anyway, this thread spurred me to watch Band of Brothers, which I am doing now. I had never watched it - 2.5 episodes in, I see what the fuss was all about.

Re: The Pacific
I just switched back to Time Warner cable after fucking off with AT&T U-verse for 10 months.
Ordered HBO just so i could watch The Pacific and just got around to watching the 2nd episode on demand.
Wow, just incredible. What a portayal. If even half of that's what's it was really like, shudder....
Just two episodes in and it's already one of the best, if not The Best, war flicks I've ever see.
I don't see how they can top that, but I can't wait to find out.
Episode 3 on demand, up next.

Re: The Pacific
Try Graboid. It's $4.99 for 10 GB and 4 GB free trial. If you can hook a laptop up to your TV, it's the way to go. I downloaded 15 episodes of Fringe season 2 and 12 episodes of Dexter season 4.War Wagon wrote:Ordered HBO just so i could watch The Pacific
If you can wait, you can get all of The Pacific for about $5.

Apperently not, or this thread would've been at page 5 a week ago.

Re: The Pacific
Actually, pikkkle, you're the oral type, etc...
Okay, I've watched the first two episodes...and there's good and bad.
The good is that it's better than Saving Private Ryan (though Spielberg is only "executive producer" on this), with decent acting, excellent location feel, and dependable action scenes. A little schmaltzy and stereotyped, but it moves along.
The bad is that it's shaping up as a recruitment vehicle for young men who just want to shoot something! You know, like your standard militant Christer getting married in the woods.
Case in point: in episode two the fierce battles of Gaudalcanal are basically rolled into one eight minute sequence of non-stop automatic machine gun , etc, and while at least two thousand Japanese are seen running suicidally into the reaper of American hot lead, NOT ONE American is seen taking a hit. I'm not kidding. Sure, allusion is made to dead marines (next day burials), but none are shown getting shot during this entire sequence. It looks adventurous, exciting, and fun. ANd of course the 1st Marine detachment are total HEROES, etc.
Part 3...Spoils of war. Aussie brunettes spreadin' like flowers in Spring...all for you, forest groom Christer loon recruit, good sanctioned Victorian sex--thirty seconds of fumbling hydraulics followed by confession....
Sign up, sign up.

After watching only two episodes thus far, I wouldn't say that.... yet. Nice comparison, though.LTS TRN 2 wrote: The good is that it's better than Saving Private Ryan...
oh, and plenty of GI's are seen taking hits. Graphic shot to the jugular hits. How'd you miss those?
Re: The Pacific
Well, except for the beginning, Private Ryan blew chunks. Pacific is basically a nine-hour movie, and so the character development, details, and battle scenes are all more...realistic? And sure, wagoner, the American gets clipped in the trench--that was episode one. In the episode two sequence to which I referred, it's just non-stop slaughter of the Japs without a single American getting shot. I've got it recorded. I don't doubt the basic tallies of the brutal fight--32,000 out of 36, 000 Japanese killed, to about 7,000 out of 60, 000 Americans. Clearly if the Japanese had established their base on the strategic little isle the whole war would have been much much worse.
As if you need any further reason to rationalize or justify the slaughter of the Japanese army, try checking out The Rape Of Nanking (2007) a horrifying documentary of Japan's ruthless genocidal assault on China--starting with Shanghai and marching inland to Nanking, killing everyone in between. Even the German Nazis who were visiting were shocked.
(yeah, goober, yer grammar suffers what's known as a "predication error"--and a Freudian would interpret yours pretty easily. just sayin' :wink: )
