Thats riighht...oops lol. Well i just thought about the topic and just wrote it really fast. O well it happens.. :P
That's ok, I really was just incapable of ignoring a chance to give you a hard time over something :dgrin

And for the record, I really DO like historical war movies. Most of them, even. Even the gory ones.

I like movies that take place in the wars, but aren't about big battles per se. (Enemy at the gates, La Vita e Bella...)

You are not the only one. I don't know if I like movies that take place in the wars but are not about big battles per se. I love TV shows about robots.

Heheh that it was!! Glad Cloud agreed too! My fave episode was Episode 6 'Bastogne', which was the one about Eugene Roe (the Doctor) it was such a different point of view than the usual soldier’s stories, very sad too tho. But all in all it was such a good series, so well written and executed. Very moving.

Oh yeaaah!! Of course!! :)

But those episodes were so bad...I’m sure it was like 1000 times worse when it happened, totally unimaginable to comprehend what it must have been like! The horrific conditions those soldiers had to go through...you gotta feel for them. Much respect to them, so very brave.
