Nobody is really interested in war flicks anymore, particularly WWII.
I think pretty much "Pearl Harbor" sank that genre.
Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan seem to indicate otherwise. If it's a good movie they will watch. I sure did.
IMO, WWII was the biggest single event that ever occurred.
Why pay to see a WWII movie when the History Channel has shows about it all the time?
"Nobody is really interested in war flicks anymore, particularly WWII."
Ummm...I am.
And I was oh so disappointed by "The Great Raid". What a great story. What a disappointing movie.
I had heard that someone was making a movie about Iwo Jima...I cannot imagine how they could make a movie about it that would be accurate while allowing people to stay in the theatre watching it...
