07.30.09 HELL YES ‘WWII IN HD’! HITLER IN COLOR!

And can I take a moment to say, “ABOUT DAMN TIME, HISTORY CHANNEL”? Because let me tell you, a reality show about people driving trucks on ice is NOT history. Now get to work on doing this for Korea and Vietnam.

PREACH.

Not the first time Hitler has given me a boner.

Wha? All this time I thought Hitler was black.

In 8th grade, I had to do an oral report about Hitler. I had to dress like him. It was the greatest day of my life.

I want to have a threesome with this and The Pacific miniseries.

Amazing how colorization makes it so much more real. It’s interesting that color in videos adds poignancy, while black and white has that effect in still photography. Anyway, I’ll be an appointment viewer for this one. Money well spent, History Channel.

I’m waiting for Howard Zinn’s historical account of WWII.

@UU — haven’t decided whether or not to go near this yet:

@Matt, sorry I brought it up. Damon should stick to being Jason Bourne.

Korea and Vietnam? Why you gotta be such a Debbie-downer? I’m waiting for Grenada in HD! Clint Eastwood owned that shit, and we won! GRRRARRRGH!

Wow, how about old Jack Werner’s comments about the kid from Mississippi. Pretty intriguing.

Steve Zahn, Rob Corrdry & LL Cool J? This is going to be the best World War II ever!

Seeing as I paid a visit to the Air Force Museum (in Dayton) no less than 48 hours ago, you couldn’t have picked a better time to post about this. Thank you sir. I can’t wait for this.

Really loved the Iron Maiden tribute at the end.

EVL29 that is part of a speech that Winston Churchill gave during the war. Not a tribute to Iron Maiden

At 3:53 a song starts after the man talks and churchill gives a speech during the song. can someone PLEASE tell me what this song is? it is so moving and i like it. thank you.

Jack’s comments about the kid from Mississippi were from the same feelings of indifference the Nazi’s applied to the jews. Bet he didn’t serve with Dixie Division in New Guinea and Mindano. Most of those boys had never left the farms either and the broke the backs of 2 Japanese Armies.
