Grammar has nothing to do with it. It was obviously a montage of clips from the movie. Using your "logic" we can also criticize the trailer for having pilots magically transported from the ops building to Germany in 2 seconds.

Let it go David, you didn't see what I was talking about in the trailer, hence you called my description "absurd", then after Sokol1, who did see and understand, posted images to illustrate it, you turned it into a word game.

hey Lord of the Rings are great movies, it was no easy task. of course it could have been different, but see not many ways to do it better. if Dambusters goes forward i also trust it will turn out ok.

While there are undoubtedly many errors in this movie, I think the above was caused by the trailer-editor-probably-knows-nothing-about-WWII-fighters effect. (the 109 cut to a shot from a different scene featuring a 262)

EDIT: Wow I'm late. Must've neglected to refresh/missed the page count

Trailer looks good. Lucas is also a vintage aviation afficiando so he will have put in a fair bit of love (and cash) to this project.

For the record the the freaky maneuver with the p-51 pulling a stall turn and shooting up the me 262 did by some accounts happen. There was an episode of that history channel's dog fights about it.

There will be some smaltzy moments - the film has to make money after all.

Tell your friends and go see it at the cinema chaps. Who knows - if it sells lots of tickets it could revive the genre and the sim market as well.

You guys are nuts.

It's movie: The primary purpose of a movie is to generate money - not please some virtual fighters jocks with realistic FMs or historically correct paint schemes.
In other words: We are only a few and therefore notr really important.

Although the theme imho sux, I'll rather have crappy movie one than none.

George , you are no Ridley Scott.

No, I saw exactly what you saw, and it was obviously a montage. But, let's assume for a second you are right. Let's assume that the movie has a scene where a P-51 driver shoots the wing off a 109 which then morphs into a 262.

Do you think that:

a. The people who made this movie really don't know the difference between a 262 and a 109.

or

b. it's a plot device to get the movie from mid/late 1944 to the end of the war.

Basically, there are 2 possibilities.

1. You made an absurd assumption.

2. You made an absurd assumption.

You obviously have some sort of fixation on me. In any case, I have better things to do than engage with my latest internet stalker. If you want to further discuss the scene at 2:15, please address your posts to the one who kindly went to the trouble to illustrate my point with screenshots so that you could understand:

Now, kindly remove yourself from my leg, nobody here is interested in seeing such a display, which has no place in this discussion.

Your surrender is duly noted.
