The Pacific: Episode 9.

 

[Wanted Bob]

Ha, that was great

Weird, I just started (and finished) watching that show this week.

Me and my dad have been trying to finish it for a while... but never find any time. Today we managed to find time for episode 9. Only one more to go.

 

[Warped]

I'm waiting for Netflix and November to see it! if not amazon.com might have the 99 cent episodes I may just do that instead

 

[Lucid]

Ah, I figured it was either that or The Thin Red Line.

Never managed to get past episode 3 because I guess I expected it to just be BoB but in the Pacific... definitely need to give it another try some time.

The hardest part about the show is you don't really know who the characters are. I only know who like, three characters are, and one showed up halfway in the series.

Everybody else is forgettable, and half the time I can't tell who the characters are.

With Band of Brothers, it was easy. I quickly knew everybody, even the smaller characters.

Also the first half of the series is kind of hard to get into because of all the night fighting. And I wasn't in the perfect environment to be viewing those dark scenes.

As soon as I realized sledge was the kid from Jurassic Park, I just couldn't take him seriously

**** me, I thought I recognized him.

I thought the same about the show at first, Raz. Though I found a different reason to love the show. It certainly wasn't as character-driven as Band of Brothers, but I think that wasn't their focus this time. It was more about the madness that formed in the Marines fighting there. With Eugine Sledge, its really clear. His entering the war as a likable kid, who seemed to respect and fear the fighting as any decent person would, but who, after fighting for months on end turned into an almost despicable person. You see him turn into his fellow mortar crewman, who is already absolutely despicable and who had been there months before Sledge showed up. You see the madness in almost all the characters, and its something no war movie or tv show has ever successfully shown.

The show was fantastic, I thought. You just can't compare it to Band of Brothers, because it has an entirely different point of view and an entirely different message.

Guess I never thought of it like that.

hey vegeta,I want to see that picture of your sister again.....she is gorgeous.................

 

[StarBob]

Is that the show made by the Band of Brothers guys? It's on HBO right? Well I'll catch up to it when it comes to netflix.

 

[The Monkey]

I only got to the second episode before I stopped watching. I dislikes it for the same reason as most other people did, lack of character recognition.
