+Fates Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Speed and Angels anticipated June 2008 Release In 2003, Director Peyton Wilson entered the world of U.S. Navy fighter pilots. Thanks to unprecedented access granted by the Navy, Peyton captured and created the most intimate film ever made on fighter pilots. Epic High Definition aerial footage and stunning cockpit photography provide a dramatic backdrop for the larger story of fighting for your dreams. Inspired by the passion of two young Navy officers she encountered, Peyton followed Jay and Meagan as they chased their childhood dream of becoming naval aviators flying the F-14 Tomcat. Their two and a half year journey takes them through dogfights in the Nevada desert, night landings on aircraft carriers off the Atlantic coast, and eventually to the biggest challenge young officers face: wartime deployment to Iraq. What begins as a story of realizing a childhood dream turns into a story of fighting for one's life and career as Jay and Meagan face the realities of war. Based on the original concept of producer F.A. Chierici, Speed and Angels is an action-documentary directed by Peyton Wilson.

+JediMaster Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 I can't believe the planes will have been gone for a year by the time the movie is out... Quote
Rambler 1-1 Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 wow, I didn't think a good, realistic fighter plane movie was possible. Maybe in this one a ham-fisted pilot won't crash because of the light breeze from an A-4... Quote
+JediMaster Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Well, it's not a "movie", it's a documentary. There's a difference. Quote
Sixgun Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Hate to break it to you guys, but the DVD has been out for about 9 months now. I have it and it is pretty good. Quote
Rambler 1-1 Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 DOH! probably not in Canada yet anyway. Quote
Colt40Five Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 (edited) What is this "releasing in 2008" crap? I got my copy on DVD months ago...like 6 months at least. and it is excellent! Edited February 16, 2008 by Colt40Five Quote
Fignuttz82 Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 What is this "releasing in 2008" crap? I got my copy on DVD months ago...like 6 months at least. and it is excellent! Same here, this documentary is awesome. My favorite part was when they're doing trap qualifications and you see the guys eyes go wide as he approaches the deck. Really sweet watch, would recommend it to all aviation junkies. Quote
