I cannot WAIT for this. Finally, a reason to renew my HBO subscription.

(I ended it when The Sopranos and Deadwood were cancelled.)

I am all over this movie. BoB is still one of my all time favorite movies. (series)

[TADSLOS]

Excellent.

“The Pacific”

A 10-part mini-series from the creators of “Band of Brothers” telling the intertwined stories of three Marines during America’s battle with the Japanese in the Pacific during World War II.

Spielberg and Hanks did OK by “Band of Brothers”. I’ll assume that they’ll give the same respectful treatment to this. Looking forward to it.

Bump for later watch.

Thanks for the heads up. I don’t have HBO, but the BOB DVD set that came out was well worth the money. My DAD was WWII Pacific, so this one is a must see.

[Shqipo]

This looks great. Hope they stay true to the history and not sprinkle it with PC.

Dale Dye is the Senior military adviser, so you know it will be realistic. He was the adviser for “Saving Private Ryan” and “Band of Brothers,” as well as acting as Col. Robert Sink.

I don’t have HBO but been waiting for this. Might subscribe just long enough to watch this.

[Domandred]

Ah crap. Yanked due to copyright. /sigh. Trailers shouldn’t get yanked for copyright.

[Petronski]

I believe Band of Brothers is the finest war film ever made, even at 11+ hours.

Any word on when Pacific will air?

[NavyCanDo]

Any clew on what battles they will cover? the Marine landings on Peleliu, or Okinawa would be great material for a series.

[MrPiper]

video no longer available .........just FYI

The main difference between this and BOB is that “The Pacific”, as I understand it, is fiction along the lines of “Battle Cry” as opposed to BOB being a dramatization of a nonfiction work.
