RE: movie 'FURY' with Brad Pitt
I'm looking forward to this movie, both good and bad. At the end of the day it is only a movie, but it has real tanks.
I've been following a couple of WW2 veteran's comments about this and they all seem to give a thumb's up, especially the few tankers that went to see it. Looking at the Easy 8's and Tigers makes this pretty much a no brainer for me, after all I sat through Battle of the Bulge many times. PS, I think Bulge is probably one of the worst war movies EVER, but I still go to see the tanks even if they were M48's and M24's.
There is another movie coming out called Unbreakable about an Olympic runner that was shot down over the Pacific and lived through Japanese prison camps. Even if the director is Jolie, I'm going to see it because the story is true and so fascinating.
Thanks all,
Jim von Krieg
