"It's been 84 years"
Sattros I don’t get the joke
@@brettthebest3978 it's from the movie Titanic, when Old lady Rose is narrating her life in the cruise and remembers it well even after 84 years.
The meme refers to something that happen a long time ago or takes to much time, like a video of HB
Sattros oh I thought about that but I thought it was a reference of one of his older videos
The return of History Buffs, nice!
Thank you History Buffs. Very cool!
Ya know. He doesnt upload a lot, but he always uploads quality content. Dont apologize for slow uploads
quality not quantity 👍
The YT algorythm: 😬
I hope 1917 has been added to your list of future videos
That was a good movie
Do a history buff on "Black Sails". PLEASE...
I never seen it, but I like the idea.
I was just going to suggest that as well, I am currently watching the show for a 3rd time.
Totally. Great show.
Best TV-show ever. Knew how and when to end.
yes please
An interview where real questions are asked.. What is this?
Man, Gustafson came in swinging on the accuracy, didn’t he? I don’t think enough credit is given to how much the cast consistently manipulates their voice and tone for the characters. Standen sounds like such a soft spoken gentleman, and Gustaf’s voice is so much deeper than Floki’s...
Do “The King” and “Outlaw King” from Netflix
Just as an appetizer
Holy shite, congratulations Nick, these were a joy to watch, you did well with the rapport and elicited both some fun history knowledge and your dialogue with the actor who plays Egcbert was excellent. 10/10 upload moar, goodly sir!
Ragnar was best
Seriously: you sure know how to keep your fans in suspense. After viciously destroying Elizabeth, and teasing how The Golden Age is even far more historically inaccurate, you keep us waiting for months on end. Bring it on already!
On topic: I have to say Vikings has become too much of a soap opera during the past two seasons. I've hung on until a couple of weeks ago, but what's going on with the characters that are left, and especially the new ones, really doesn't interest me anymore.
He can do what ever he wants its his channel
I left after season 4. It just didn't feel the same after Ragnar
@@taylorveldhuis8269 Juvenile.
@@donovanchilton5817 do you mean me?
@@taylorveldhuis8269 Ignoring how no one said otherwise, we're likewise free to bitch about his decisions.
Hey man. You should see and talk about Last Kingdom. Very good series so far, based on The Saxon Stories, from Bernard Cornwell, You should know about it. Would be nice. And welcome back
I was surprised by how well done the Last Kingdom was made. Despite the political correctness flaws, which everything seems to have these days, the show got right as much as it got wrong. Not bad for Hollywood. Always annoys me when shows and movies depict battles as a free for all melee.
I second that
I Agree !!
Agreed
👍🏼
I met Alexander about 5 years ago when we were on the same flight from Copenhagen to Reykjavík. Really great, normal guy; he let me take a photo of us. Said he was sneaking off to hang out with friends in Iceland over the weekend while shooting a season of Vikings. Helped someone with their bags and sat in the back of the plane real "Floki" ;)
I wish Vikings was more historically accurate. I felt like a was watching a soap opera after season 4. I also hate how they went completely fantasy in this season by having the Rus invade Scandinavia. They should have done Cnut the Great’s invasion instead because it actually happened.
I also hate the time warping they chose to do. They made Rollo Ragnar’s brother even though they lived 100 years apart from each other. They also made Ragnar a farmer for some reason even though he was the son of a king and he inherited the kingdom. Next thing we know Ubba is going to 1v1 Ivar at the Battle of Hastings after William the Conquerer fights out of poverty in Normandy.
Had they kept a more accurate timeline, after season 4 we would be getting Rollo in Normandy instead of the soap opera. It would have been so much better.
Eduardo Ribeiro I agree. I would of loved to see other Viking conquest included as well like the raids in Byzantium or the settlement of Greenland.
I actually didnt even know that about ragnar
Bugzy Hardrada I don’t think the region it comes from has anything to do with it. I am American yet I live English and Spanish history and would do anything to write and direct a historically accurate show about both of them. It really comes down to what your goal for the film is. Obviously (even though it is on HISTORY CHANNEL), it only cares to portray a fantasy setting based around real people and real places. But I do see where you’re coming from though. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (which is our main source for knowing about the Vikings) is an extremely biased piece of work that portrays the Viking raiders as heartless savages.
Matthew Griffiths You aren’t alone. A lot of people do not know the real Ragnar Lodbrok because of this show’s level of mainstream. That is why I wish History Channel wouldn’t have approved this show and instead let AMC or some other channel run it.
please please please: a SHOGUN review with Richard Chamberlain. Would be great to see how accurate they took the history, costumes and so on! love your channel, thank you so much!
I love that series. I hope he tackles it as well.
Yes indeed, that was an amazing miniseries. Nick Hodges, Richard Chamberlain and John Rhys-Davies chatting would be a great video for sure.
History buffs, THE IRISHMAN PLEASE !!
YOS
YES. Apparently, the "wrong" dates and information narrated by Frank was intentional by Scorcese to hint at his unreliable narration.
That movie was long but worth it
Yes plseae
And American Gangster as well.
Please Please whenever possible do 1917. I absolutely loved the film
He'll never do 1917 lol
@@donovanchilton5817 why not
shitty story line is just vehicle for cool cinematography
@@landlash How is it a shitty storyline?
"I've been told your god is a carpenter. And guess what? So am I!" *Screaming intensifies*
Plz do gangs of new York history buff
This channel has consistently put out the highest quality content.
Nick is there any plan to review the 1963 Cleopatra? 4 hours long and will provide lots of content. Or is that getting a skip because despite being a better representation of that period, it's redundant to season two of Rome?
Erik Van der Zee nice profile pic
They should have ended the show when they avanged Ragnar's death.
Please review Glory from 1989
The story arc with rollo and ragnar was simply one of the best. I myself am a younger brother of 2 and am, simply put, the one most likely to need a draft horse to ride into battle. It felt like tiny dominance stuff between me and my brother but writ large
Man I hope you do 1917 and Chernobyl.
Hacksaw Ridge plz!
Hey dude what do you think of MIDWAY
It never stops surprising me how History Buffs manages to get interviews with major cast members, nice work guys.
You think you could review “Unknown Soldiers”? It’s about a Finnish machine gun squad in WW2, it’s interesting because it follows them when Finland was allied with Germany fighting the Soviets.
I just finished watching Hell On Wheels, it's about the building of the transcontinental railroad, it's a great show and I would be interested to see how much you could find to be accurate, if it is at all...
Theres better documentaries about the joining of east and west railroads in that era. Better than hell on wheels imo.
@@dwoolaver1549 Better documentaries, sure, but damn if it wasn't a good show
Yeah I said it wrong, it's a show that takes place along the railroad during its construction, not really about it being built and it's not a documentary at all
Could you do a video on Black Hawk Down?
Good call.
Have you seen *Sharpe* with Sean Bean.
No, but my TH-cam recommendations are telling me to watch it
Fun drinking game, binge all the Sharpe tv movies and take a shot every time he says "bastard"
@@MaidenUK Haha! You've just reminded me of the dual in Sharpe's Honour-
"Ya fat bastard. They won't find a coffin big enough tae fit ya."
Probably my favourite line from the whole series.
Sharpe does have it's moments if one suspends disbelief. It's one of those series I wish had been made now with modern CG to make the battles more epic but no-one could play Sharpe or Harper better than Sean Bean and Daragh O'Malley.
@@kaiserjoe2316 damn right about the actors, a rare case of perfectly fitting my mental image of the characters from the books. My fear would be that the CG lessens the realism and they start putting firey explosions everywhere. I like how a lot of the rifle shots and explosions in sharpe are small pockets of dirt getting kicked up.
Video on 1917? :)
Man, I can’t even watch Vikings anymore because it went from an action show to a soap opera where everyone is having an affair with everyone and it’s just cheap drama theses days :(
What happened to Midway? I thought the first review of it would be yours. How about contrasting it against the 1976 version like you did with "Pearl Harbor" and "Tora Tora Tora"?
Pretty funny hearing Rollo's actor talking about how he's honorable and doesn't backstab since "he was raised like that" but him joining the French was like the 2nd or 3rd time he betrayed Ragnar lol.
psl do a second history review video for vikings once the series is finished
Here's another movie for you to historical rip apart. The movies Red tails or The Tuskegee airmen. Both have the same subject but one was made in the 90s
Oh God... definitely red tails. One of the worst movies ever nailed together. Certainly some of the worst acting.
After Elizabeth can you’d a review of flyboys
Please you have to do The Irishman next! It is such an interesting point in time and it would be wonderful to hear what exactly happened, who did what and how.
do "Empire of The Sun" pls
Do a review of "Vinland Saga."
The irony of having a historical consultant on the set of the world's most farb-y clusterfuck of a show.
Hey Nick could you do a review of either Troy or lords of chaos please
I hate Vikings, it’s a melodrama
Wow. I cant explain how good this interview was to me and I thank you for all your dedication and commitment to your craft. It has made me a better person
Thanks for keeping us up to date on a certain title. Not like other TH-camrs. Appreciate all your work bro.
Do Midway (2019) I found it to be mostly accurate. And it had great action and acting.
Someones probably asked this but... History Buffs: Generation Kill?
You should do a HB mini on 1917 because it has fictional characters in what I think is an accurate depiction of a WWI environment. It can also be interpreted as a man’s journey through the afterlife.
You should do a history buffs on raging bull or JFK
Do a History Buff episode for The Irishman!
Please do Glory or The Iron Lady for review after Elizabeth II!
Ecbert was the best part of Vikings thanks for coming to my ted talk
This is such a brilliant video, I adore vikings and I have adored your work. I look forward to every history buffs video. Is ther any way I can support you further? If not just know that we adore your work. X
I'd love if you did a video on Norsemen.
could you please do "Troy"?
Oh fuck yeah bud, You never disappoint with these videos.
Can you do another episode on vikings for the seasons you didn't review
Day something something of asking for Siege of Jadotville
Anyone know where the vikings podcasts are??
You should do a video on “The King”
You combined two of my favorite things: history and movies.
Tbh I didn't like vikings after Ragnar died
Do Lonesome Dove , its one of my all time favorite movie/mini series.
That scene at 16:03 is my one of my favorites of the series, and really anything with Ecbert in it is pure gold :)
Oh yeah, that one and the final conversation between Ragnar and Ecgbert in season 4 is just fantastic. I was just completely glued to the screen.
FRESH
This natural style of interviewing without a camera is clearly so much better.
I got goosebumps from Ragnars speech at the end. Guess I have to rewatch all the episodes before season 6 continues...
the series is still going?
@@ethanstang9941 Yes, the first 10 episodes from season 6 are out, but there is still 10 more to go. But after that it's over afaik
You should do something with the last kingdom
Nick should review Vinland Saga :D
Please review vinland saga
No problems! Take your time with Elizabeth: The Golden Age. We would rather have quality over quantity of your awesome videos.
I don't watch TV at all so when I learned of Vikings here I thought I'd give it a try.
Damn good series!
Also, have you done anything on Cromwell?
I see History Buffs, I hit the like button!
Do A video about the film public enemies!
Please do a history buff on 1917!
You should definitely do a history buffs paths of glory next, one of the best ww1 films hands down.
Good stuff. You should do a part two of the Vikings review once the series has concluded later this spring.
Midway, pls
Still waiting for Cleopatra.
Well done Nick these interviews are really good, thoroughly enjoyed this. Would be interested to see a video just on your thoughts about season 4 and beyond, exploring it from a story standpoint as well as historical.
Could you react to an german production called ,,Verstaubt sind die Gesichter´´? It´s about the german side in the last months of the second world war. it´sy really well done and they have a really low bugdet. Would enjoy if you did this one.
A few movies you should consider doing are.
1) 1917
2) U-571
3) Red tails
4) Air strike
5) Stalingrad
6) Hacksaw ridge
7) Black hawk down
8) Letters from Iwo Jima
9) the new midway movie
10) and maybe do fury too
Thanks history buff.
And ofc the new sonic movie
Rütger Ortmann: Why suggest that one?
U-571 would be a good one to see him tear apart.
Now, this is how you interview, not interrupting, knowing the story and plot and making good fucking questions
please review the historical movie, Patton
Can you do a video on the horrible movie Gotti?
Everytime you release a video, it's like Xmas, because I've been waiting and I get so much joy from seeing y'all's stuff.
Congrats on 1 MILLION subs, dude!
Fantastic piece of work here. I especially enjoyed the section with the actor that plays Rollo.
The man has returned! Fantastic interviews. I love Vikings and you’ve really done a great job of digging into depths of the show with your questions. Can’t wait to see the videos lined up for 2020. Hope Open Range is on the list!
Thank you kindly for doing your best to appease the anxious masses who desperately await every video you upload on this channel! It just goes to show how much your work is sincerely valued! Just a little something each month is better than nothing!
Hope you're well, Nick!
Hi, have you checked "Brestskaya krepost" - German Invasion of Russia from the russian perspective - I must say "wow" - mentioned this because you are always asking for more food ;)
Currently midway through Season 5 and I gotta say, King Ecbert is definitely the best, most fascinating character in Vikings.
HONESTLY THE BEST INTERVIEWS WITH A CAST OF A SERIES I'VE HEARD!!! Well done Mate
Outlaw king, Outlaw king
are you going to review the new midway movie i´m intrested how mutch that are true in the movie
Do zodiac (2007) next
Great work, big fan of the channel. Can you please do Mindhunter tv series next please.
Could you do an episode on Glory?
Are you ever gonna get around to reviewing Downfall?
