The comical thing is that he uses Dogfights as a source.........
Thats just scary wildone_106..

Any movie where Mustangs blow up the Bismarck is epic by definition. I just hope they include the scene where they blow up that dam at night.

Did you know that it was a Mustang pilot that captured the German submarine with the Enigma machine on it?! It went down strafing with the Tiger killing .50cals and then German crew surrendered at once. In the following fly-by the pilot opened the canopy and caught the Enigma machine one handed!

The creators of Captain America told me this!



;)

Wow, i never knew that...

What a man!

And then I got back to base and drank 10 pints of beer and .......

On no! I'm still bound by the Official Secrets Act! It wasn't really me!

Don't believe a word of it.

It was done with the P40 Q prototype.

Trust me.

It's a trailer. (and very well said Hiro) And this is a film, not a flight sim! :) hehe

Hollywood and other Major Film Studios (LucasFilm included) makes movies to cater towards the general audience.

Using the statistics they gather, (numerous is an understatement) Each director has a formula whenever they try to create a movie. As much as we would like to think otherwise, totally factual based history can be rather dry and bland. Drama is needed because conversations, even confrontations can be ...for lack of a better word, boring. (Though now we have reality based TV shows to show each and every one of us how to be a 'drama queen', lol!)

The advantage Lucasfilm has is that it is a self-sufficient entity seperate from Hollywood so that his studio has total say in the product. He did this after his incredible success with 'SW' so that he would never have to depend on backers and Studios when creating his sequels/prequels. And as an Artist, he is constantly refining each piece with each re-lease.

How much of a full hand does he have in "Red Tails"? I'm not too sure. Unlike the 'SW' series, he's probably playing more of a supervising role and delegating some freedom to those he assigned to make the film. Not being 'his baby', he is very aware of how the movie needs to be in order to have general acceptance with the public. So be aware that when things don't look correct, out of perpective, or too close together, etc., there is a specific reason for it being that way as well.

Film is the art of storytelling condensed into a 2 hour (or less) movie.

...and hellyeah! I'm looking forward to seeing this one!!

(Have you seen the theatrical release poster??!!) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Red_Tails_Poster.jpg

BTW, it's just a trailer. Still 4 1/2 months till it's release, and a lot can happen behind those closed doors in Skywalker Ranch!

At 2:14 WTF? That's gonna be another LOL film...Mustangs go afte Me262 LOL GG! :D

Several 262s were indeed shot down by P 51s and not all of them on landing approach, also Kohzedub bagged one with an La7, which is a lot slower than a 51 in the real world.

Don't let the performance of these aircraft in IL2 blind you, oh and the first time I shot down a 262 online I was in a Brewster...

I had to laugh watching the video when it said 'based on true events'..

So was that POS Pearl Harbor movie with Ben Assflick

This hyper PC correctness world of ours is re-writing history faster than we can keep up with it.. And not just with WWII events.. Next time your at a yard sale.. by the old history books and save them in a safe place.. They will be worth something someday if not to you but your children.
