Monty Python: The Funniest Joke In The World

Anyone who watched both Battle of Britain and Dunkirk understands which of the two is a better war movie

Congratulations to Germany for a fine World Cup! :-)

Considering I plan to live forever (or die trying!) I will see the sun go supernova!

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.

Well you know Southerners can’t drive, nothing that moves faster than a John Deere or a Massey Ferguson anyway :-P

That is why they are impressed with NASCAR.  :mrgreen:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Ever hold something on a string above a cat and swing it around?  You know, where their heads just go around and around when they can’t reach it?  That’s how I envision the thousands of fans at a NASCAR event!
