Stratos 3,192 Posted May 19, 2019 Pretty cool films! And yes, I agree in that filming is way better than today CGI's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+yakarov79 11,103 Posted May 19, 2019 The best thing is they really filmed it with real aircraft, real airbases... a whole lot of propaganda..but lot of nice equipment. I would also recommend watching Soviet war movies from 70-80's. Although they are hard to find. Mostly they also filmed it on real airbases, ships etc... Even with the whole bunch of propaganda can be a nice reference for modelers, etc.. 'Toward the unknown' - also good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,850 Posted May 19, 2019 A pity Toward the Unknown isn't out on DVD -- one of my favorites of the time period (young James Garner bites it in the "XF-120"). Another would be "X-15", which I have on VHS. Found the trailer for The Hunters: Along the lines of Bridges at Toki-Ri, would be "Men of the Fighting Lady" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
