Yes, that is the point. Losing wars has consequences. One of those consequences is that the winners make movies that do not reflect well on the losers. And no one goes to movies that reflect well on people who started massive wars.

How about if you post all the quotes from the trailer about how great America is?

And thats exactly were you're going deeply wrong, plenty of people would play games as the Germans in a compelling story or watch movies like BoB from their perspective where they're not portrayed as animals.
Would we be nazis because of this no? Some people enjoy watching Saw movies, are they murderers no? Portray them as good fighters or focus on something else instead of the political business.
(Or dont involve it at all, just focus a movie on a battle instead of insulting one or the other side from ONE angle).

The music industry got past this hurdle a long time ago and you've bands like Sabaton who develop songs about everything from the American Paratroopers to the Polish resistance and the German Ghost Division Tribute.
It's been what ~67 years, and thats exactly my whole point. Fed up with yet another American patriotic/biased movie. The discussion is useless because you refuse to see were i am going with this.

I shouldn't have to repeat this but you don't get it, its not about the politics. As I've said before I totally disagree with everything they did so I'm not trying to pick sides here.
It's about making interesting movies that can display both sides in a fair manner instead of using one angle.

And so back to the movie, i'll watch it for the CGI but i bet its gonna leave a bad taste.

And so back to the movie, i'll watch it for the CGI but i bet its gonna leave a bad taste both in terms of how the Germans are portrayed vs the Americans and also aerodynamics & realism. Hopefully we'll see more interesting war movies in the future with todays modern technology, such a shame otherwise.
Just think Indiana Jones when seeing these kind of movies, and everything is well =)

You should make a movie which shows the WW2 Germans as good guys and prove everyone who makes movies wrong.
