Javito1986 14 Posted August 4, 2011 I do somewhat enjoy the movie, although it's not a good movie. Every now and then I come across a bad movie that I like even while knowing it's bad. Catch-22 has genuinely funny scenes, but it's not at all a good adaption of the novel. The novel of course is one of the great American classics. One of the few books that makes me laugh out loud when I read it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hauksbee 103 Posted August 8, 2011 I'd like to see a summer-popcorn-extravaganza about the Sino-Japanese fighting (1937-1940) in which the Boeing P-26, and the Polikarpov I-16 met the Japanese A5M in air combat. Baring that, I'd like to see a Spanish Civil War-era fictional piece in which German/Italian aircraft of the late 30's meet fleets of Soviet Avimatkas.

JFM 18 Posted August 9, 2011 I have zero--ZERO--faith that any of those movies you guys wish to be made would be worth a damn. "Less Hollywood, more facts." Nope, not gonna happen. That's asking Hollywood to be less of itself. But, as far as a wish list, I guess that'd be at the top, eh? I've not seen every war movie because I have little interest in any movies, but the only one I've seen that has been halfway decent was Tora Tora Tora.

Olham 164 Posted August 9, 2011 ...the only one I've seen that has been halfway decent was Tora Tora Tora. Indeed - it came almost like a well made documentary of the day, when the Jaspanese Navy went out "waking the Tiger". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyby PC 23 Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Indeed - it came almost like a well made documentary of the day, when the Jaspanese Navy went out "waking the Tiger". Tora Tora Tora actually means Tiger Tiger Tiger. Also, TTT (1970) was made just a year after MGM's Battle of Britain 1969. TTT also bombed at the Box office. @Hauksbee - Some amazing pics there Hauksbee. Edited August 9, 2011 by Flyby PC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hauksbee 103 Posted August 9, 2011 @Hauksbee - Some amazing pics there Hauksbee. From an ancient (1982) copy of AIR Enthusiast magazine. (British) I've been carrying it, and a few other copies, around for years. Always lots of interesting esoteric stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
