Crusoe Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Excellent. Loved the original. Second only to The Wire in my favourite dramas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 As mentioned earlier, if you enjoyed watching these boys in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjQWBzGRCKU...feature=related ...then I'm sure you'll get into this which starts very soon on Sky: I got the Band of Brothers box many Christmases ago, and I still watch it like it's the first time I've ever seen it - it is amongst the best TV that as ever been produced, and it never loses any of it's appeal.

Ackey Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Wait if you want to........ this /\ !! Spoke of this in the pub tonight... I think it's hard to express how excited I am about it. As Matt says above; Band Of Brothers, for me, is the best dramatic TV (or; critically - Movie) ever made. I genuinely believe it's the most poetic, poignant thing ever recorded and to think they could come close to this with Pacific excites me greatly. I can't wait to watch the first edition.

Ackey Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Watched episode one yesterday. A 'builder' to set the scene and characters for the rest of the journey. But even so it feels wonderful. So immersive, the depth of shot and attention to detail is astonishing. This looks for all the world as good as it's predecessor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in work at the moment and the Flash player here is crap but the HBO site has a couple of videos showing how it was made on their site. Really worth a watch. Try here.

Crusoe Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I have it to look forward to this afternoon. Just getting my snack supply ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Just watched the first one and enjoyed it. I won't give any spoilers apart from the Japanese lose I think it sets it up nicely for the rest of the series and thankfully there wasn't a big piece on the training incorporating montages and the other tired clichés that was films/series usually resort to.

Crusoe Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Yep, agreed with that. Just finished it and it sets it up nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I want to watch the second one now! I am half tempted to wait until I can watch it all in a row.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I know the feeling. Me and some mates have a regular Christmas Band of Brothers/Generation Kill marathon. Hackney's off licenses don't know what's hit them that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
