Great new movie!

Thanks for answering Worsham.
Maine? Interesting. Would have been Massachusetts then. They did go far away (almost Canada, like Marc suggested).

I consider all 3 old parties to be the same; they are all essentially under the thumb of a centre-left European commission.

Two more flag possibles;

simply drop the Scottish blue;

or add black and yellow for the St David’s flag.

Removed some posts in the interest that the thread does not get into a pillow fight or that Amon Sul didn’t deliberately set up the thread as a form of some backhanded insult.

they werent.  but the library of alexandria had a lot of monks, priests, and other laymen all over that place.  if they wanted to save some stuff they could have, and probably did, but let the rest burn.

so no-one has read ismael, my ishmeal, or the story of B?

Yes its on my top 5 movie list post!

This was broadcast on Soviet television in the late 70’s and the effort spared no expense for extras because they used actual Soviet soldiers and the budget was basically unlimited. The portrayal all the Germans and Soviets is extremely good. The sets are very realistic and the battles consist of perhaps 10,000 or more soldiers, plus hundreds of tanks ( the germans are mostly tiger 1’s and some decent mockups of elephant and panther).

all the battlefield combat scenes are panoramic which is IMO the only way to film a war movie. You can literally see the 10,000 soldiers.

5 movies were presented

Stalingrad ( 2 parts)
Kursk
Operation Bagration
Assault of Berlin

however no english subtitles of this exist. My girlfriend has to translate for me ( shes from Odessa). You wont find any copies of this with english either. I have tried for many years to do this but to no avail. I own all these movies and they are amoung my favorite of all time.

It will cost you at least 100 bucks for the set of movies, unless you rent them from a russian video store and make copies.

I still need a resolution.

Yeah it’s actually All Quiet On The Western Front I believe, but when it’s literally translated it’s Nothing New on The Western Front. I haven’t seen the movie, the book is good though.
