I really enjoyed the movie; the only one I saw more than once in the theater (7 times). Did I notice some minor flaws, yes. None of this "trouble in production" stuff made it on the screen, there were no chyrons running saying "this is is what supposed to happen here..." Jeez, the final edit is the story, not that we were to be told about truckers strikes or rubber suits. This was a good old 1950s space romp with a familiar ensemble and better special effects than the 50s. We got way the Hell away from Spock being dead and needing to save earth.
I didn’t see Decker as crazy but rather broken from grief, survivors guilt, and his sense of responsibility That he had to stop the DD machine even at the risk of losing the Enterprise to give meaning to the loss of his own crew. I suspect Robert Ryan would have played up Deckers obsession at the cost of not showing Deckers humanity and sense of responsibility for his lost crew.
No , Call of duty 2 on the xbox 360 is better! It's such a good game and veteran mode is stupidly difficult.. But not impossible. Big red one is cool but not 2 cool.
Some brown bear subspecies are beginning to reach into the same size category as the larger short faced bears (there were more than one species, fun fact. They came in different sizes!). Polar bears already burgeon into the same size class as the medium-larger short faced bears. But these bears were much smaller when the short faced bear was around. And yet, we live in a time where there are fucking massive bears again and we keep finding bigger and bigger individuals. The main difference is that short faced bears... had short faces.. and longer limbs proportionally, making them taller at the shoulder by average. However, from observing the result of liger hybridization (and consecutive hybrids of ligers); alot is possible with hybrids. They'll have a rough estimate of how most will look, but sometimes certain genes get turned off or become hyper-expressive or two dominant genes can both express at the same time. Genetics are weird. But its plausible some polar/grizzly hybrids would have a shortened facial structure. The process of neoteny, is the phenomena of evolutionary reverse developmemtal convergence; or in laymans terms, when a species evolves to look more and more like infant or fetal stages. Humans evolved through neoteny. We evolved to look more and more like infant chimpanzees but as full sized adults, this allowed our hips to become more bipedal and our cranial size to grow larger than any other primate to exist, with the only exception being other members of our genus and only two examples therein
My oldest brother was on the uss borie and was hit by a. Kamakzi plane and 80 young sailors were killed. It was the last kamakazi of the war and my brother who played the trumpet played taps for each man who died, and buried at sea.
I think a big part of the believability of many scenes was due to Bruce Catton’s input as one of the screenwriters. Warren Oates’ psychopathic character was going too far, though. He was far from being the norm in any army. Still, I agree; the Blue and the Gray did a pretty good job of capturing the flavor of the period-far better than North and South.
Giacchino - juh-kee-no please enjoy all the music he's ever made, whether it be Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, Dreamworks animation or Disney Star Wars, it's all gold and he's a musical god
COD WW2 tried and failed to copy the squad chemistry of BRO. The characters weren't that likable and the story only centered on a two charchters with Zussman still feeling like a cliche side story. He didnt live up to Brooklyn in the slightest
Also like how its shown that Allen was replacing Hawkins to keep their numbers up. We see Allen prove Brooklyn right by being cocky and getting himself killed. No one ever replaces Allen, and I wonder if it's because Brooklyn requested to keep replacement out or that the squad doesn't care to hang out with anyone else after Schmitty, who has proven himself a bit
Never mentioned Schmitty, who replaced Vic. He never grows close to you, and Im thinking that was on purpose. He's just the "new guy," replacing a beloved memeber and never fill his shoes. Though we see him grow. Wonder why hes not in "We've been through Worse"?
I always thought Schmity replaced Alan. While your character replaced Hawkins. Hence why Delany now talks to you directly like he did with Hawkins in prior missions.
@ANProductionsOfficialChannel Schmitty isn't prominent in the mission. He knows his place as the replacement, taking quips from Brooklyn and being corrected by Hawkins while they were on the landing craft. He proves himself by fixing the Flak 88 they use to destroy some bunkers. He isn't present during "We've been through Worse," though he shows up in every other mission and was in "An Easy Detail." Roland took the billet left empty by Sgt. Hawkins. Though they were still short a mam and that was filled by Allen until he died. They have to keep numbers to keep the squad "combat effective", but I can see someone like Brooklyn requesting Delaney to stop giving them replacements and let them be. Schmitty was accepted because he had proven himself. He was a third wheel because of you only knew him for half a year while everyone else had been Day 1s for almost two years by then.
It's a fine episode, no doubt. But the best? Surely not. Amok Time, City on the Edge, Space Seed, Tribbles, Journey to Babel, Who Mourns for Adonis, Last Battlefield, are all more interesting in terms of their ideas, story telling, and performances 🖖
@@ANProductionsOfficialChannel How dare you! I challenge you to kal-if-fee! If you're unfamiliar with the term, just watch the actual best episode Amok Time.
I have so many great memories of the multiplayer of big red one. Buchholz and Town Square are such iconic maps for me. I remember wanting an xbox 360 so bad for the regular COD2, but when I finally got it I didn't even like it as much. I remember my grandfather (Iwo Jima vet) watching me play a little of the campaign. I was super young at the time, I knew he was in WWII but was way too young to REALLY understand what that meant... he probably thought I was insane for finding enjoyment from it lol. He died shortly after but from what my mom and aunt say, he NEVER talked about it.
I didn’t know there were two call of duty 2’s at the time, I remember playing call of duty 2 on the Xbox 360 but not this one, and this the only game I learned about the big red one, fight through Africa all the way to Europe.
100% SPOT ON. I usually have so much niche things to say but you've checked them all, the evolution of soldiers and uniforms, the factions and guns, vehicles, soundtrack and everything else in between, just absolutely spot on, this game was truly the first COD to give characters a importance, something we would see later with COD3, COD4 and the whole franchise of memorable characters we got today. Obviously some passion and nostalgia exist to me since it was my first game/COD ever, but I'm assure that even without those glasses this game holds up extremely well and deserves the regard, can't even fanthom to explain how much this game sparked my interest in history and taught me english even through playing it just so many times.
Wasn’t Bowie also a big slave man? I believe he even sold them. In the movie he’s literally dying and is like to his slave “nah you ain’t free - you’re my property until the day I die.”
Little Boy and Fat Man saved tens of millions of Japanese lives, but that’s never mentioned. To this day Japan lies to themselves and anyone who will listen about their actions in the war, even in schools.
I love big red one, i have to say, the way they showed the history of the first infantry division is x100000000 times better than what they did on cod ww2, i dont remember any other cod apart from the expansion of cod 1 that has missions on sicily, and with cod 2, the only cods that have missions on the african theatre, the game deserves a remake, just as all the other cod games on ps2, those being this one, big red one, call of duty finest hour (the first one of the ps2), cod 3 (for me the best) and Call of duty world at war final fronts, wich, in my opinion, has a better pacific theatre than the original cod waw becouse it has more battles (guadalcanal, tarawa (on betio), saipan and share the battle of okinawa, the bad side of this is that the battles are not developed in detail as they did in the original world at war, for example the battle of peleliu you spend half of the marine campaing on were you can see how the characters in the platoon develop a little bit, wich never happen on the ps2 version and the battles have just a few missions. If i remember correctly is 1 mission on bootcamp, 1 in guadalcanal (tokyo express), 3 on betio (landing, destroying the gun batteries and taking the japanese commandpost), 2 on saipan (beach head defending against the biggest banzai charge of the war and taking mount tapochau) and 2 on okinawa (taking over japanese rocket artillery and bunkers on a hill overlooking the shuri castle, and finally, taking the castle and japanese counterattack on the court yard). Theres no eastern front on the ps2 version, being replaced with the battle of the bulge (wich is one of the best portraits of the battle ive ever saw becouse it shows part of the battle with british missions), the rhin river crossing with the brits and finally the capture of Braunau am inn (hitler's hometown in austria) and the destruction of a V2 launch site on the town. I just want to play those games with out emulating and with better graphics... just imagine, sadly, activision has forgotten everything before cod 4 beside some ports to the 7th generation of consoles like call of duty classic (cod 1)
