Most Inaccurate Historical Movie/Miniseries

[Dan]

We did save the world.

Twice.

Once when you defeated the British in the Revolutionary War, and once when slavery was abolished?

 

[Pesmerga]

Oh, well, that's 4 if you count those.

 

[The Monkey]

We did save the world.

Twice.

You better not be talking about WWI.

 

[Shift]

And you certainly better not be talking about WW2 or a /facepalm will be entering in your general direction!

 

[Direwolf]

I actually can't think of any good examples from recent memory of the whole "US saves the world in WWII" movies. Have they just gotten lost on the wayside over the years, or is there something I didn't see?

 

[AJ Rimmer]

2001.
Kubrick got almost nothing right!

 

[Lucid]

And you certainly better not be talking about WW2 or a /facepalm will be entering in your general direction!

That was a joint effort for the most part.

I'd say for WW2, the Russians won overall though.

 

[evil^milk]

Pearl Harbor.

 

[Shift]

I'd say for WW2, the Russians won overall though.

Bingo.

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Well I think we can all agree on that the germans lost though.

 

[DEATH eVADER]

Serenity, some things just did not fit in with the Firefly universe (The way I remember it, Simon did not get River out, in person, but hired an organisation to do it for him)

LOL!

 

[Lucid]

Serenity, some things just did not fit in with the Firefly universe (The way I remember it, Simon did not get River out, in person, but hired an organisation to do it for him)

Yeah, that really conflicted with their back story.
It was still a nice sequence and all, it would've been even better if that's what Simon actually said he did in the first place.

 

[Javert]

I really don't mind inaccuracies in films, but Enemy at the Gates was downright annoying.

 

[Dan]

That was a joint effort for the most part.

I'd say for WW2, the Russians won overall though.

Well the Russians beat the Germans, but the Americans gained the most from the war.
