New WWII movies coming!

Not too fussed about the plots or how real/true the movies are, I just soak
up anything with combat-type flight scenes. I guess movies like The Blue
Max, 633 Squadron, the Dam Busters etc., made a big impression on me in my
formative years. The History channel was introduced in my country this year
and I am glued to anything to do with air combat, especially WWII. The gun
camera footage is just fascinating!

Great movie idea to pass on to Hollywood: The George Welch story.

The huge volumes of crap coming out of Hollywood nowadays makes even Top Gun
look like a classic. Bring em on.

Olympic Gold medalist.

Love story.

Guns. Explosions.

Top Gun 2?

Yep, it's real: "The actor also spoke admiringly of Mann, who will direct
him
again in "The Few," an upcoming biopic of an American WWII pilot set to
begin
shooting later this year. "The layers upon layers that he puts into the
film
- that's what makes him Michael Mann."
