It was ok, but I'm telling you, at the start it ripped off footage from Starship Troopers. What the heck was up with that? I must say, I liked the ending though :)

Am I the only one who thinks this movie sucked? :) I thought it was incredibly boring. Basically three hours of character development for the next two films. I thought there were going to be these epic battle scenes. I think there was about 30 seconds in the beginning showing that one battle...

Something in the trailer I just noticed about two seconds ago.. look at the Light Sabre that Anakin is carrying.. particularly the COLOR. About half way through he has a green one.. while Obi-Wan has a blue sword.. At the end of the trailer Anakin is fighting with the blue sword.. Could be an...

I got a copy for free from Amazon.. why couldn't they send me Mummy Returns or Star Wars EP1 :) Oh well.. at least I have one Christmas present I can give away :D ------------------ DVD Collection

Looks the same to me.. whats new about that trailer? ------------------ DVD Collection

I'd like to see them use unknown actors, similar to what they did with Band of Brothers. I guess SPR was the same way at that time, as well. Now most of those actors are quite famous. I'm sure it will have Oscar potential as well. :) ------------------ DVD Collection

If you want to drive a little ways into town, CNL (www.cnl.com) has a huge selection. Not that close to Kits, but they usually have all the odd DVD's you kind find anywhere else. ------------------ DVD Collection

If they do show the Japanese on Iwo Jima, we probably won't see much of them. They pretty much just hid out in the caves and tunnels. Also, every single Japanese who was defending the island was killed (some 22,000). ------------------ DVD Collection

Found another article about Dreamworks buying the film rights to the book "Flags of our Fathers". I'd think this is what they would base the film around. http://www.jamesbradley.com/press/dream.htm ------------------ DVD Collection

Ambrose was on Letterman Friday night and mentioned this. I looked into it a little more and read some articles on the internet. Heres one: http://ww2.pstripes.osd.mil/01/apr01/ed041001c.html "Spielberg wants to do a film on Iwo Jima," Ambrose said. "So the pressure just grew. Finally, I...

I have heard and read that there is a good possibility that Steven Spielberg with be working on a new movie based on the Battle of Iwo Jima. Basically a Pacific counterpart to Saving Private Ryan. Stephen Ambrose will also be a involved with this project, although I'm not sure if it will be any...

I sure hope its in widescreen. We can see what we are missing on tv :) ------------------ DVD Collection

The first three episodes have been just awesome. I really like this series more than I did Saving Private Ryan. I will pre-order this baby the second it is announced. The only semi-real release news I have read about was saying it would be out sometime in December. This would make sense by...

I'll definitely buy this when it comes out on dvd, regardless of how much the box set costs. The first two episodes were awesome. I liked them even more than Saving Private Ryan. Can't wait for the third installment. ------------------ DVD Collection

Very Impressive!! It looks like some kind of keepcase will fit inside the center (white) part of the packaging. Glad someone is pushing the envelope yet again. ------------------ DVD Collection
