I wish there were more motion pictures (didn't say movies) like BoB, totally historical accurate, and not a dramatized storyline where the main guy owns like Rambo and dies in the end.
[quote="Old Reliable":bae8a]i dont know the exact events that happened but yeah I agree it is closer than probably any other war movie/film[/quote:bae8a]
This has to be fairly accurate because its based on real events experienced by real people. My grandfather who was in the 506th during ww2 read the Stephen Ambrose book and he said it was spot on. Since BoB is based on the book, im sure it was pretty damn close.
yeah but there were several instances that it seemed the script was suspicious in making the germans seem lesser. the embankment assault, it seemed like the germans didnt kill any americans. it just made it look like all germans were greens
I liked the 10th episode. when germany surrenders, and easy finds all the officers houses in austria. i liked the part when the officer gives the speach to his troops. i find it funny knowing these guys went into a war to fight against hitlers army as a nobody and in a few months they are his eagle nest sipping hitler's finest wine. I'd kill to go to Austria.

[quote="CaP bUsTa":b14da]yea your right, im sure things like that were tweaked when they made the mini series. I havnt read the book though so I'm not sure how it compares.[/quote:b14da]
It sure was real close to the book I say. Really close.
