Hi Mary
If you want battle based on actual events.
ZULU (introducing Michael Caine) more VC's were awarded than in any other action before or since
The plan the United States had what's the build small faster tanks that could charge across a field vast or get away from enemies fast or because they were smaller they can maneuver around easier and also because they were smaller they were cheaper and quicker to build so you can put more into battle the Germans built some bigger more powerful tanks but they were very expensive but they were also slow to shoot and slow to maneuver comparatively
@@toyota420xp Yeah Especially King Tiger. Have a lot armour, but too heavy. Get stuck in mud.
"Ideals are peaceful, history is violent." Humanity cannot learn from history, given that most living people choose not to learn from their own experiences let alone the recorded experiences of others. The best hope for humanity, outside from eternity in Heaven, is a solid, moral, and inexorable culture that can survive the inherent weaknesses of mankind. This is the ultimate lesson of history, and its one we cannot learn.
Did she really ask if you need a passport to enter the war...in wartime???????? I'm dead
To enter the county, like you go through customs. That was funny.
Lol I know. They didn't exactly come through passport control, checking the guys when they came off the beach in Normandy😂
That question broke my brain for a few minutes. lol
To be fair she could mean whether you need a passport while in transit like while being in England prior to mainland Europe.
@@rossserpant5827Yeah, I'm fairly certain that when my grandfather jumped off the 2nd fleet D-Day that they didn't check his passport, lol. They did give him 13 pieces of shrapnel though 😕.
The best line in this entire movie; “Ideals are peaceful. History is violent”.
Absolute truth in those words
Nah, best line is "you feel that? Thats war" - referring to Norman's sudden fury...
@@tileux Nah... “Wait ‘til you see it.” “What?” “What a man can do to another man.”
Truth is, history is the record of reality, and reality is what it is: sometimes wonderful, sometimes terrible, everything in-between, and you can't get away from any of it. There are some good ideals that recognise this and try to work with it, but most of them? Pie in the sky, to varying degrees.
I thought that “wait till you see it. What a man can do to another man.”
@@ragdaj Nah. This movie is pretty incoherent but if it has one theme that makes sense its trying to explain the fury you need to kill another person. A lot of veterans will understand that. And the bit where Norman starts to feel that fury is that scene, where coonhouse says "you feel it?!". Thats the moment where Norman changed - because the fury got him. Mary noticed the change but not the exact point where it happened.
As someone who has shot at people and been shot at, that bit sticks out like a light house to me. The rest of the movie is just BS. The "usual war is hell" crapola. But that bit - the writer really hit the mark.
Shia’s acting in this is amazing. You can tell the character is dead inside
hes soo good. Probably his best performance
From what I’ve heard he actually pulled a tooth out for this role.
I heard he was very unhinged behind the scenes.
@@NocturnalWrathof course he is, hes Shai Labeouf
not only was his acting great, but his character was written wonderfully. you can imagine he's really a baptist raised bible-thumper turned soldier/killer yet still holding onto his faith. there were probably tons of guys like him in ww2.. Doing the bloody work of war while still holding onto the idea of the grace of jesus christ (explains why he's always crying, too)
Don wasn’t just being stubborn by choosing to defend the crossroad. As the officer told him earlier in the movie when assigning him the mission, if they didn’t protect that position, a German force would easily outflank the American forces, and inflict severe damage and casualties upon the rear-echelon troops.
The red and green are from chemicals added to the bullets so they can see where they go. They're typically added to every fifth bullet - so for every green or red streak you saw, there were 4 bullets coming after it.
Phosphorus is the chemical. But later analysis proved it was counterproductive. The extra burning causes a tiny difference in trajectory of the tracer bullets vs the other 4 regular shots. So aiming with tracer rounds meant the other 4 weren't hitting in the same spot.
They're called tracer rounds. And yes, although not 100% accurate, at that firing rate, it doesn't matter, it shows the general direction of your rounds, so its still effective in guiding your shots at a target.
A machine guns primary job is to suppress the enemy not necessarily hit and kill them. They keep the enemies head down so you can maneuver on the enemy and take them out.
There's waaay too many in this movie lol, it shouldn't look like a star wars weapon
The tactics in the movie is not historically accurate. And tracer rounds dont look like that irl.
But it was a cool effect.
Dude's palm reading skills were on point, she only had one love in her life.
That's so dark, lol
“He was literally inside her 30 minutes ago” is crazy 😂
@@abritishbagel I'm weak 💀💀💀
"He just should steer cleer of 'rooting' German chicks. Just in case they die. Rule of thumb: don't do it anymore." 💀
Wholesome Aussie moment
She's not wrong . . .
Probably the craziest thing we’ve heard cherry say 😂
WarDaddy's decision to defend the crossroads wasn't pointless machismo, nor was it emotional attachement to the tank. Fury was the only thing between those German and US rear-echelon (support) units who they'd have carved up if they'd reached them. It was an act of self-sacrfice to save others, and it worked.
Not to mention the fact that there were wounded.
They could have ran ahead and warned them. If one crippled tank crew could take them anyone could.
I served in the US Army in the mechanized infantry and I can tell you the part of this movie I enjoy the most is the battle drill in the turret during fights. It was, so far as I know, completely accurate for WWII but it’s the exact same battle drill if you were to watch footage inside a tank. The TC (Tank/Track Commander) calls out a target, a bearing (on the clock), an estimated distance and either the type of ammunition best suited to the situation or else calls out that the next round to go into the weapon should be the correct one for the target he sees. So, “Target - tank, 2 o’clock, 800 meters, AP (Armor piercing)”
The gunner will call “On!”
The TC calls “Fire!” but doesn’t actually shoot the gun.
The gunner calls “On the Way!” and will hit the foot trigger - his hands are busy with the controls that aim the gun
The TC watches the round and what happens. Hopefully the TC calls “Target destroyed!”
You really hit on it in your wrap up. The tank that you’re in came off an assembly line. It looks, theoretically, identical to the one just before it or after it but each is ‘adopted’ by its crew and personalized. It’s given its name and RARELY changes (soldiers are a superstitious breed). It may seem like it’s identical but, oddly enough, each has a ‘personality,’ it’s true. This one won’t start on a cold morning. That one belches black smoke more than others. This one’s engine sounds like a kid with a stick in his bike wheel. Inside quickly becomes the ‘living quarters’ of each member of the crew.
Pity they didn't ask any Germans how a _real_ Tiger would operate in the field!
@@dancarter482to be fair, they did use the only remaining working Tiger in existence for the shots.
@@dancarter482 The power of the Tiger has actually been hugely exaggerated in pop culture. At that range, a Sherman armed with the 76mm gun could have punched clean through the Tiger's front armour.
This movie is loosely inspired by Audrey Murphy, a lieutenant in the Army who told his men to flee to the tree line for safety while he remained and used a tank to hold off German soldiers by himself. He was was awarded the Medal of Honor.
Another thing about him is that when he called an artilary strike they asked how close the Germans were and he said "Here, ill give the bastards the phone and you can talk to em." He fended them off the the .50 while his tank was on fire
It's actually more largely based on Lafayette Pool as well.
This movie has two inspirations to it.
The first one - war daddy. He was a real person his name was Lafayette G Pool. He was born in Odessa Texas. He is credited with being America’s “tank aces of all aces” because he destroyed the most armour personal carriers and tanks during his time in world war 2. Highly decorated for his actions.
The last battle was also inspired by Audie Murphy where he took on a bunch of German tanks and personal himself that got him awarded the Medal of Honor. Audi Murphy actually started in his own movie, and they had to tone down a whole lot of his actions because they didn’t the audience would believe it.
And Audie Murphy was all of 5’ 5” and 115 pounds. Such a wild story.
TO HELL AND BACK was the movie i think but he had others
Audi Murphy is a BEAST ... Man was a real life "Action Hero" ... like #ChristopherLee
It was also based on the "Fray Bentos" disabled British tank that got surrounded by German soldiers in WWI. A true story very similar to Fury.
I think the most haunting image for me is the shot of Norman looking out the window at the end, staring at that tank. The notion that it will be forever burned into his psyche, is so devastating because that's what happened to so many of those boys we sent off to war. Then they came back, and we did nothing for them. We didn't help them. We didn't listen to their stories. We forced them to suffer in silence.
The thing about the German Wardaddy made Norman shoot, is that although the German had indeed surrendered, he was wearing a US Army jacket at the time. It wasn't clear whether he was doing that in an effort to blend in, or if he was just cold and found a jacket, but the point is he was captured while wearing the uniform of the enemy. Therefore the "rules" of warfare and POW's didn't apply to him. His captors could do whatever they wanted to him and it wouldn't have been considered a war crime.
It's also important to remember that there were SS units that went behind American lines dressed in American uniforms and committed war crimes. Not to mention Joachim Peiper's "Blowtorch Brigade" that massacred US prisoners. So if GIs caught a German soldier wearing an SS or American uniform, they might get themselves some street justice.
Either way, he is considered a spy, and can be executed.
I thoroughly enjoy your reactions, but this one seemed to be more talking than watching, the crossroads in particular, the sacrifice was to hold the road so the supply chain can remain intact. And there is a difference between defeatism and knowing the reality of a situation. Keep doing what you do, it is always enjoyable
Mary, please add "Hacksaw Ridge" and "We Were Soldiers" to your list of must-see war movies. Both of these films are especially meaningful and poignant because they are true stories, reenacting actual battles as they happened in real life.
She already has a reaction to hacksaw ridge
I'll second both of those, ik she did hacksaw, but we were soldiers is also super good
35:30 He was exactly like Norman. It's an important moment because Norman used to behave in the same way and that decision of his used to cost lives but now a "German Norman" saved his life. Which holds a mirror for us in view of the fact that what happened to Norman happened on both sides. David Ayer (director): "This kid should have been going to college, but by that time they stopped the deferments because they were running out of bodies to send in and fight. And the same with the Germans. They were grabbing kids out of classrooms. It's interesting, because that German soldier is actually 14 years old. But the idea is, it's not their war. They shouldn't have been there. And somebody has to rebuild when it's over. There's people on both sides of it. In four weeks they are not the enemy anymore." (It was four weeks before Victory Day.)
'its called war' is one of the greatest scenes ever shot, and the score is legendary
those bright bullets you see from the tanks is common in tanks/humvees and also in light machine guns to help the gunner track where his bullets are going! 😊
In world War two, tracer bullets were sometimes used. These bullets had different types of metal coatings which would ignite when fired, making it easy to see where the bullet went. Magnesium burns white, copper burns green, and strontium burns red. This was helpful for accuracy. If you could see where your bullets were hitting, you could adjust your aim accordingly. It was used mostly with machine guns because the vibrations of the machine gun made it difficult to keep a good view down your sights while rapid firing.
I served in Germany and deployed to the Middle East during the liberation of Kuwait. I was mechanized infantry and this film holds a dear place in my heart. When you’re in the service your military ID is your passport. We flew from Germany on American Airlines planes contracted for our use. I slept on that flight and woke up staring at my machine gun (no bullets) and remember thinking how odd that was. When a service member travels alone in civilian clothes, either on leave or traveling to or from their unit in civilian clothes you’d show your Military ID to any passport control and, perhaps, your orders. Your military ID is required to enter all military establishments, camps, forts, ships, just supposed to have it on you at all times.
“Steer clear of rooting German chicks in case they die…” 😂😂😂😂
Fucking died
1. they had an order to hold the crossroads, that's why Wardaddy was staying. it gave the rest of the army time to organize and advance in order, which is why it was a heroic last stand.
2. lol, you don't need passports in war, lol. gawd that was a good laugh, ty.
That was an actual Tiger I used in the movie, currently the only functional Tiger I in the world. Tiger 131 can be seen at the Bovington Tank museum in the UK. Fury is also on display there. The museum loaned both tanks to the production company to make this film.
It was historically accurate that three of the four US M4 Sherman tanks were destroyed while fighting the Tiger. The Tiger had overwhelmingly superior armour protection and firepower. It's main gun was a modified antiaircraft gun, and the frontal armour was over 100mm thick in places. It weighed 56 tons, and the engine was underpowered for such a massive tank. Due to the weight, transmission problems were also common. Germany only produced 1,356 Tiger Is, to over 35,000 M4 Shermans produced by the US.
This is top 5 war movie of all time for me. The crew has such great chemistry. Every actor is on point too.
One thing I'll say about the reaction is that you seemed to miss just how broken the crew were from war. That's why they behave the way they do, especially with Grady being rude. That's the point of the scene in the barn and the story about the horses. They are men who have lost the spark that makes them human. Norman hasn't, at least not yet. That's why Grady says what he says to Norman. Its both a warning and an explanation. If Norman has to fight long enough, he risks losing some of that goodness.
I will say that the only major inaccuracy in the film is the Tiger being able to tank the Uparmed Fury with it's High Velocity QF 17lb gun. At that range the Fury could have easily penetrated the front armor of even the most advanced German tanks of the time. The other Sherman tanks would have had *some* trouble with the front armor, but not the sides at those ranges either (With their 75mm guns) The 88mm gun on the Tiger *would* do exactly what it did to the Shermans, however. The only other thing is that they would have flanked the German (The left most Tank going wide left and the right most tank going wide right) with one/two going down the middle to present a much harder target spread for the Tiger and her crew.
The colored bullets the machine-guns are firing are called tracers. They're used, perhaps every 5-10 rounds, in order for gunners to locate their fire as it goes downrange.
Bit of trivia: the lead five actually went through a military boot camp in prep for this film, which helped strengthen their bond and helped them with their wartime mindset. Jon Bernthal (who played Grady) said there were some things that happened during the boot camp that they'll never openly discuss with anyone.
Guess that's why they're so damn good in this film. Very hard to pull off a convincing bond founded in war in just a short amount of time, but the lead five nailed it. That dinner table scene is a personal highlight.
Especially Shia and Jon it seems.
When Shia was exposed for his problems, abusing his gf/wife among them, Jon felt compelled to reach out to him and push him to do better. Jon considers them to be close friends, and it started with this film.
@@ch4z_bucks Shit, that's right! I forgot Jon had him on his podcast a while ago discussing that.
I obviously don't condone Shia's past actions but it's good to hear Jon was there to push him in the right direction. A true class act, nothing but respect for Bernthal.
You may reconsider your 'I'd rather be in a tank' statement if you read a little about the statistics of WWII in Germany. The US Sherman tanks were light, cheaply mass produced tanks that were severely outperformed by the heavier, more accurate, better armored German tanks which also had much heavier guns with superior range. The strategy is pretty much what you see in the Tiger scene. With the normal guns, you had to get behind the German tank (that's where their armor was weakest) and hit their back. If he spotted you first, you had to sacrifice multiple of your tanks to take out a single German one. On top of that, the Germans had countless traps prepared where they took out vast numbers of US tanks at once.
The life expectancy of US tank crews was shockingly short and their strategy literally was to throw more tanks at the Germans than they were able to destroy. The game changed somewhat with the larger gun which is portrayed in the movie (Fury is equipped with that gun) and was mounted on US tanks towards the end of the war. But even then, the losses stayed shockingly high.
I just wish this movie had not messed up the battle against the tiger tank. Other that that, it is a great movie
how did they mess up? im genuinely asking, not being a dick. i love this movie so im genuinely interested
That part isn’t horrid, not great, but it does play into every stereotype of the Tiger. I just chock it up to needing action for a movie, not many of us care about the historic accuracy.
It could be a LOT worse, look at any tank movie made in the 50’s and 60’s for examples.
What exactly was messed up about it?
@@Cauldronb0rnFury's 76mm gun would've easily punched through the front armor of that Tiger, not only that but when the Tiger shot Fury the tank should've exploded, they could've done it more realistically but other than that it's a fun scene
@@Cauldronb0rnMany war movies glorify German tanks like they were nigh invincible when in reality they were technical and logistical nightmares. wehraboos love their Tiger and Panther tanks.
Ya feel that? It's called WAR!!
To answer your question about passports, no. Soldiers in a war do not have passports. I mean, you are at war so the formality of a passport is kinda moot but also it could limit the chances of soldiers deserting because they’d have no official way to travel to another country. I had a military passport when I was in the Army (brown color instead of the normal blue US ones) but that’s used for official travel on duty and not into combat zones.
The “Star Wars” like glow of tracer rounds, are the actual colors used in WW2, by each side. Star Wars is highly influenced by WW2.
comradeship, character development and music really made this movie great to watch even with some unrealistic battles and tactics.
I really like Brad Pitt's work when it come to WWII movies, he did an excellent job in the movie Inglorious Basterds and managed to surprise us once again with Fury.
"She had one last root...." lol ... stay classy Mary 🤣
I'm not sure this is a true story but I know of a similar situation with a Soviet tank. It was a KV-2 heavy siege tank. At the time the Nazis where still using short barrels on their tanks. Cause of this the KV series tanks where a major problem for them. A lone KV-2 was able to hold a hill by itself for a whole day until they ran out of ammo and where forced to abandon the tank and retreat.
It was sometime in the late 80s or early 90s that I met a tank commander that he was at the Battle of the Bulge, and it lasted for 5 weeks from December 16, 1944 to January 25, 1945. It was one of the worst winters during that time that both sides, Americans and Germans ran out of ammo, tanks ran out of fuel and were also disabled, the American soldiers did not have proper winter clothing, and it came down with many of the soldiers fighting hand to hand to hand combat. The tank commander that met was at a local popular bar and restaurant and we were both sitting at the bar drinking beer and he was telling me about his own personal experiences of that battle. He was fine about it like it didn't really bothered him and smiling. He was born in my hometown, shorter than me (I'm 5'5") and he was in much better shape than me for being a WWII vet. He was a real nice person, and he also liked joking quite a bit. We did become bar buddies during that time. Good reaction Mary Cherry to the 2014 film 'FURY.' One of my many favorite WWII films. If you can, please do a reaction to the 1969 film 'Battle of Britain' which I saw that year in the theater when I was 13. It has an all British cast. Great cast and an excellent British film.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. The US is not the only country that has a day of thanksgiving. There are quite a few although not all on the same day. But even if the place where you live does not have a day of thanksgiving, most of us should be thankful for something.
The piece of a face in the beginning wasn't skinned with a knife. Either shrapnel or a bullet hit that man's face at such an angle that it tore part of his face off.
I’ve been waiting for this reaction! Thanks for sharing with us. Such a great movie. “Best job I ever had”
"Reality is often disappointing"
- Thanos
And i like this movie.
One constructive criticism: WWII is a pretty serious subject, and putting in the 'well that escalated quickly' clip after a guy who was on fire, screaming in agony, shot himself to end his suffering could be seen as a bit disrespectful.
This is a dope flick. I've watched this 4x in a row when the movie came out. Fresh...
Mary, your commentary is adorable and i wish we had you in Falluja [I want snacks 😅]
The final battle was likely inspired by the actions of Audie Murphy, who while fighting in France ordered his men to cover, then mounted a burning tank destroyer and killed or wounded 50 Germans, halting their advance. Wounded and out of ammo, he rejoined his platoon and led them in a counter-attack. Wardaddy knew the importance of the mission, that if that crossroad was taken by the Germans the division was in danger and a lot of Americans would be killed, so that's why he stayed. Wardaddy shot the German prisoner because he was wearing an American coat, a big no-no because it would be assumed he killed an American to get it. He wanted Norman to understand the harsh reality of war (this scene turned me off of the movie for awhile but over time I've been able to accept the context.)
I'm sure others have explained the green and red tracer rounds, they were used to help the shooter aim at the target and to help supporting troops concentrate their fire on it. And Mary, I love ya, but when armies invade other countries they don't carry passports-they're pretty much breaking every law of that country in doing so, so getting passports stamped for legal entry is the last thing on their minds 🤣I loved the reaction, I hope you keep doing more war films. I would suggest "The Thin Red Line" and "We Were Soldiers."
FYI, there is a WW2 Sherman tank named Fury. I saw it in a documentary on tanks. I believe it's in a British museum. There is also the story of a very real Ace tank commander named Leopld "War Daddy" Poole. He and his all had nicknames and all survived the war.
It’s at Bovington tank museum they normally bring it out for a run around there course during there annual open day
@@tiggalong227 All the tanks in the movie - Fury, Old Phyllis, Lucy Sue, Murder Inc and the Tiger - belong to the museum at Bovington.
You were wondering why the piece of face in the tank was there, also you questioned why didnt the other tank crew get out of the American Tank that was shot by the Tiger. Its called "spalling"
When a tank round or anti tank missles hit the sides of these old tanks, they explode on the inside, causing molten parts of metal fly inside the tank.
Its what happens to Coonass at the end of the movie.
Tanks are not the safest place to be in a war.
Every acting in this movie is top notch , shia,John, brad , hell even cera did good also.
When I was little there was an old man who came to the park with his little dog where we enjoyed. He had fought in the war in the east and he told us all his hard and horrible stories with his deep and sad look. He had been wounded and saved in the countryside by an old Russian woman
Thanks for the reaction Mary. Good to hear your voice.
Loved this movie because it was so raw with realities of war, unexpected trauma's and sacrifice.
Spent a handful of years on a tank. I can't say much about what it was like in WW2. But, they nailed the crew dynamic 100%. Even the commands during combat are spot on. This movie is a little silly how graphic it is. I still love it. Best job I ever had.
War movies to check out:
- Master & Commander - The Far Side of the World. About life on a British warship hunting a French warship during the Napoleonic Wars.
- The Great Escape. Inspired by a real life prison escape from a Nazi POW camp.
- Glory. Chronicles the story of one of the first units of African American soldiers that fought during the American Civil War.
- Flag of Our Fathers / Letters from Iwo Jima. A two part film series that tells the story of the Battle of Iwo Jima, one from the American side, the other from the Japanese.
I’ve still never seen anyone react to Memphis Belle or Tuskegee Airmen.
I would also add War Horse to the list as well.
The top Tiger ace in the German Army was a little farm boy named Michael Wittman. One day he, alone, destroyed something on the order of 32 Canadian tanks, mostly Shermans and only drove back to base because he was out of ammo. The Tiger you see at the end of ‘Ryan’ is the only working model from WWII. All the rest are modern recreations or mock ups. What ‘killed’ Tigers more than Allied tanks was Allied aircraft sent to find and kill tanks. There was also lack of fuel and spare parts. There were instances of the slave labor used to manufacture German tanks very cannily sabotaging those coming off their production lines. Turns out a handful of sand in the transmissions of some German tanks meant that tank could drive off the lot but within 50 miles would completely seize in such a way that a whole new transmission and all the time it would take to install it were required.
He was not the top tank ace, that was Kurt Knipsel. Whittmann was likely taken out by a Canadian Sherman Firefly.
@@brennanleadbetter9708 Top tank ace of any country in history.
7:19 Nice Anchorman cut to ease the tension.
yeah, as far as historical accuracy, this might help, in the '50's there was a comic book "Sargent Fury". in every issue, Sargent Fury was a hero
The green and red streaks are phosphorus-tipped tracer rounds, used to judge accuracy of machine guns. Typically every 5th round in a machine gun ammo belt is a tracer.
"Willy Pete" is White Phosphorus, initially used to generate smoke for cover but discovered to be an effective (and nasty) antipersonnel weapon.
"Fury" is an M4A3E8 Sherman. The "Easy Eight" was the penultimate version of the WWII Shermans with better suspension, improved armor, and a high-velocity cannon capable of penetrating up to 5" of armor with tungsten-cored ammunition. It saw limited action at the end of WWII but proved itself well in the Korean War against the Soviet T-34/85. The last known use of the M4 Sherman in combat was the 2003 Invasion of Iraq, with the Iraqis using captured Iranian M4s as decoys.
Historical Fact: That German Tank that Fury took on was a “Tiger I” and had much thicker armor and bigger gun than most American Sherman Tanks. Sometimes it takes multiple Shermans to take out one Tiger. Most Shermans could really only destroy them from the rear where the armor was the weakest but Tigers can knock out Shermans with one shot from a far distance. Germany couldn’t produce as many Tigers as America could with the Shermans so it really quantity over quality.
Shermans could easily take out Tigers from the side as well. The film exaggerates the difficulty of taking out Tigers. They were really only hard to kill from the front and at great range. If you imagine being in a Tiger tank in intense combat and trying not to let anyone get a clear shot at your rear OR your sides, you wouldn't feel as safe as you'd like.
When I was in the ADF, instead of Kid. We had a guy that we called affectionately as Phetus. We protected him at all costs. He looked like a member of a boy band that's why. Don't mistake the name like we gave him crap, he was wholesome and treasured. He just looked too damn young.
AGREED I STILL CRY WHEN I SEE THIS MOVIE AND IVE SEEN IT MANY MANY TIMES TY FOR REACTING TO IT
What really gets me in this movie, that there is total chaos, lots of setbacks, lack of supplies, shortages of food ammo and fuel, overstretched or completely collapsed logistical lines, high casualties from enemy action, lack of intel and lots of ambushes, no one is really knowing what's happening and whether they'd make it... and it's on the winning side... imagine how much more gritty and chaotic it looked on the losing side.
You should do 13 hours! It’s based off the attacks in Benghazi in 2012 on the u.s embassy there, and is pretty much a last stand for the duration of the film!
History isn't redundant, people just don't study it and learn it enough.
Man the anchorman meme killed me
Best job I ever had 🍺
i loved this reaction Mary
Someone already pointed it out about the red and green bullets. They're called Tracer rounds. Super cool. Super expensive
The weapons in the box the Germans got out when the officer was saying "Make them count" were _Panzerfaust,_ the world's first single-use anti-tank rocket for infantry. There's a tube to hold and point and there's a trigger. A load of flame goes one way and a wooden shaft with a warhead on the front and spring-out fins on the back goes the other way. It's short-range and not very accurate, not like fancy beam-riding or laser-guided stuff today, but it delivered a bigger bomb farther than a hand grenade and, crucially, it always hit point-first, so it could use a shaped charge rather than a simple blast. A shaped charge focuses most of the explosive power inward into a narrow blast going forward, which punches through armour. You can see something of its effectiveness on a video called "Catching an Explosion in Water at 5 Million FPS - The Slow Mo Guys" on a channel, well, no prizes for guessing the channel name.
Same thing got used against US armoured vehicles in Iraq 60 years later and some fool said the technology must have been supplied by Iran.
Another 20 years passed and it got used against Russian vehicles in Ukraine. Turns out it's quite easy.
They call those bullets 'Tracers' like others have pointed it's usually to remind them they are almost out. id imagine it also served what was said in this movie. to see where you are shooting at.
This movie is good love the video Mary stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
It’s wild to me that there is women out here saying they don’t need men. And did she ask about passports for war??
I think it's less a case of Wardaddy learning the Bible from, well, Bible, and more a case that Wardaddy knew it all along.
To answer your question at 31:47, no you get orders from your command then you're on a plane there, no passport.
Rough movie to watch. One of Brad Pitt's best movies is: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I think you also recently saw him in Interview with a Vampire - another brilliant flick, based on Ann Rice's incredible novel (RIP Ann). Honorable mention can also go to "Meet Joe Black" - a romance mostly.
The green & red bullets are tracer rounds. They add chemicals: polyvinyl chloride, magnesium powder, and strontium nitrate to give it that lazer effect. It so they can see where the round is going and if it's hitting the target
“Can’t they just get out” mean while the crew inside got shredded by melted metal and are absolutely dead lol
The German Tiger and Panther tanks had guns so powerful they could kill an American Sherman tank at practically any distance from any direction. The Shermans had to attack those German tanks from the rear at nearly point black to be able to penetrate the armour.
They could easily take them out from the side.
It was explained to me that eggs during that time were a rare commodity not available to the average person.
On DDay one of my uncles forgot his passport so he had to go back to England because the Germans refused his entry into France.
An 83 year old Army Veteran arrived in Paris by plane. As he was fumbling in his bag for his passport, a stern French customs agent asked if he had been to France before.
He admitted that he had indeed been previously. The lady sarcastically said, "Then you should know to have your passport out and ready, Sir."
The gentleman said he didn't have to show it last time.
"IMPOSSIBLE!" the customs agent said. "ALL foreigners have always had to show a passport to enter the country."
The man responded by whispering, "Well, when I came ashore on the beach on D-Day in 1944, I couldn't find any fucking Frenchmen to show it to!"
As a former US Army tanker, I can say this accurately captures our ethos.
We're not always pretty or polite.
But we WILL do what needs be done.
Wardaddy wasnt in defeat when he said "won't be around for the hangover", he was just accepting the inevitable, they all knew they weren't gonna make it, but they died fighting.
I wish this film didn't cut out 1 deleted scene. It gives back story on Don (Wardaddy). Don had a younger brother named Norman that passed away. That's y when Don met Norman he wanted nothing to do with him until he found out his name. His whole facial expression changed. Y he looked out for him. Also, explains y Don's back is burnt up, and how he joined the war
I saw this in theaters with my husband, TOTALLY unprepared that I was going to be so emotional. Such a beautiful and heartwrenching movie.
Right at the start they can hear the shells incoming, yet they would be travelling faster than sound. The shell would only be heard going over their heads following by a popping sound.
The red and green are tracer rounds, they help you to see where you're firing, but they also expose a firing position easier
The lazer bullets are called tracers. The are bullets that light up. Useful at night so you can see where you are hitting. Problems with this is the enemy can see where you're shooting from.
By this point in the war, kids and old men is all that the Germans had left to throw into the war.
22:48 that tank got hit with an 88mm shell and likely killed all the men instantly inside with that one shot. The shrapnel created when the round hit the tank likely shot out and hit all of the tank crew inside. If anybody was safe, it would probably be the loader. The driver, coaxial machine gunner, and gunner of the tank likely killed the second the round hit.
The man that asks quite bad all the time acts like this in just about every character he played. On "The Walking Dead" and the "Punisher" on "Daredevil TV series" and on " Punisher TV series{".
Can you please tell me how you do these videos like how do you download the movie and then watch it? Where do you download these movies from and how do you do these videos? Please help me
The green lines are german tracers, basically bullets with a chemical in the back that burns as it flies. They are used for seeing where your shots are landing compared to what you're actually aiming at. Different countries have used different colors for different things, like giving one MG nest orange and one white so they can tell the difference between their shots. The thing to remember is _usually_ there is only a tracer every 5-10 rounds or so, so whenever you see them in movies remember it's not just the tracer, there is a stream of lead between them as well. Makes scenes like the tank push at 8:30 even scarier than they already are!
Yeah, on the beaches of Normandy there was a guy who made sure everyone's passports were legit

14:24 the weapon the guy is using there is a Thompson submachine gun, aka the Tommy Gun. The gun can fire a single shot in semi auto, but the gun was meant for close quarters fighting, so a lot of guys would have the gun on full auto, and depending on the person, they could very well dump the entire 30 round magazine into one person.
The infantrymen portrayed here are seasoned veterans that have seen and witnessed the horrors and Nazis were committing against other Europeans. That being said, many nations used machine guns to execute large groups or even a handful of prisoners, this includes the UK and US.
One account that stuck with me happened in North Africa. A group of ten German soldiers surrendered to a platoon of Americans. The commander told one of the automatic rifleman to take them back to HQ. After taking the prisoners away, the shots of a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) were heard and the German prisoners were dead. The leader of the US platoon was so furious with the incident that he was ready to execute his own man for committing a war crime. However, he quickly found out that the BAR-man was Jewish and his parents were killed by the Nazis.
During combat operations soldiers are only supposed to have their dog tags.
Things like passports don't even come into the equation.
In peacetime soldiers have military IDs which also have a person's drivers lic clearances.
Your videos are amazing and the best! You look pretty
This was a movie...Audie Murphy actually decimated a German company by himself on top of a disabled tank wity a .50 cal machine gun. Got him a medal of honor.
Those red and green "lasers" are tracer bullets
The only thing that's missing in this film is "heeey, must be the money!" But yeah, I'm sure they call him Wardaddy because he's so old. I mean Brad is 50 here..and that's an old man in the military. A rare sight.
There was a deleted scene of Wardaddy talking about his past. That he used to be a raging alcoholic and ended up killing his Girlfriend and Brother in a drunken car accident and as a result his entire family and county despise him. Thats why he stayed at the crossroads. He has absolutely nothing to come home to. His only purpose for living was guiding his tank crew so they could fight the war. Now that the war was ending, his sole purpose would be gone soon.
