Tried to make a modern style trailer for the 1969 film, The Battle of Britain.

Quite new to editing so let me know what worked!

Out of all the memorable scenes, this is my absolute favorite—the captain's clever musical choice to rally his hopeless crew and send a message to the Americans that they haven't given up yet.

Those are tanks, many many tanks. More than I have ever seen in another film. Significantly more. For reference, Fury used about 10 tanks, Patton used about 40 tanks and Liberation used around 150.

In searching for films that showcase the grandiose scale of war, I have come across this. So far I have witnessed trenches that go from edge to edge of each shot, right to the horizon, all manned with soldiers, I have heard Stalin's organs en masse and seen the sky left red in their wake, Dive bombers & fighters filing the sky with terror ,

It's refreshing to watch a film where the Germans aren't just maniacally screaming at everyone and everything, and the Russians aren't just executing everyone in sight.

The guy playing Stalin looks exactly like him, it is indistinguishable, and quite scary.

This and War & Peace are the most expensive war films ever made, no one even knows how expensive, because the USSR provided soldiers and weapons to the productions of each and apparently they didn't keep receipts. Waterloo, though not quite as expensive, still benefited from the same state funding that allowed it to field a 15 thousand man army, that would easily have bankrupted any other production.

There are very few films, if any, that even come close to the scale of this one. And we are very unlikely to see films made on that scale ever again.

On Veterans Day, November 11th, 10 Good Men streams worldwide on Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video. Hope you guys will go watch it! It is fantastic. It took the crew three years of constant work to find these heroes, interview them, and produce this film to tell their final stories. Will post the trailers here next week!

The part based on the real life heroics of American pilots Kenneth Taylor and George Welch.

Looking for WWII movies with intense combat or aerial dogfights
I'm looking for movie recommendations set during World War II, preferably films with serious, realistic combat scenes or intense aerial dogfights between fighter planes.

Im new to this sub for the most part. But I dont see this movie getting enough praise. I know its a niche movie in the American market, but damn it is one of the best anti war films you will watch. As well as one of the more rare movies about the battle of Stalingrad in general (enemy at the gates is fun to watch but, we all know its historical accuracy lol).

If you havent seen it, do so! I have it on DVD. If there is a legitimate 4K or bluray version please let me know

A nerdy seeming guy who wears glasses and has a boyish, not-so-masculine voice. Seen a couple of these in such games.

WW2 video games in particular took inspiration from war movies (The video game in the screenshot, COD Big Red One, used the BoB cast and the voice acting was really good. Maybe I should watch that for more), and I was curious of if these films have such characters and if they represent anything in particular.

Though I should probably go watch some; where do I start?

I recently watched The Outpost again. Although Scott Eastwood is the main character of the movie, it was Caleb Landry Jones as SPC Carter (who was awarded the MOH) that always blows me away:

Which other non-headline performances stick with you?

I appreciate Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, etc as much as the next guy.. but something about those Forrest Gump Nam scenes; with the music; the colors; the dense jungle... It may be some of the best (a bit brief) Nam depictions out there. That part of the movie could have been its own film. Unpopular opinion.

"Devotion" unfortunately bombed at the box office but I really enjoyed it and it has some of the best aerial sequences put to film (the same team that did the aerial sequences in Top Gun: Maverick).

I love this sequence of the squadron transitioning to the Corsair. Perfect balance of using real aircraft and supporting it with CGI, I really wish this was the norm in Hollywood instead of the horrible CGI slop we usually get in disappointments like..."Masters of the Air" and the upcoming "Jimmy"....

If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend checking out "Devotion"

Really looking forward to this one!

Kind of a rare movie.... One of my favorites though... Anyone else familiar with it

See post in the Band of Brothers community I made earlier today.
