"Masters Of The Air" - from the Band of Brothers team

[Windigo]

it was on in the backround while I was playing wargames, fuck off!   

LoL. Right back at you!

I'll excuse your... impertinence because your duties as a clan leader are extensive and time consuming.

As an aside my wife is a Clan Leader in one of the top 10 clans in Diablo Immortal.... it is a time suck.

I originally wanted Apple TV just to see Greyhound but now with Masters of the Air and other shows mentioned...I really want Apple TV.

Wife and I binged three seasons of Ted lasso in a week on Apple TV

oh I've stepped away from that JOB!  I'm happy to just be among the rank and file of a top 5 team.
hmm.... just looked, we've slipped to 6th 
but ya, running those things is a fucking pain in the ass when the other people involved are 2 finance guys with spreadsheets out the ass and a hillbilly with no spatial awareness.

Saw both EP1 and EP2. So far, everything I was hoping for. However the wife thought the characters were a little flat...but what does she know...

[GDS_Starfury]

for me there are no characters that I can connect with.  for shows like this theres a lot of value in an opening Currahee episode.

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

I really enjoyed the first 2 episodes but I'm a huge bomber nerd.  Hanks and Spielberg really do seem to hate the Brits though, don't they? 

Deleted them entirely from Pvt Ryan, made them bumbling imbeciles in Band of Brothers, and now they're smarmy know-it-alls in Masters of the Air.

I agree that the characters aren't that well fleshed out yet.  Given that they decided to focus on the entire 100th Bomber Group, you're looking at 480 aircrew plus additional ground crew.  Maybe they would've done better to concentrate on a single crew or plane?

Greyhound is a very decent film, despite the aforementioned German antics over the radio and the over-the-top Warhammer 40K artwork on the subs.

Made me google Currahee. Interesting. A lot of professions have Currahee-Lite type bits in their backgrounds experiences.

Right Water-Brother Gus?!

[Gusington]

I can neither confirm nor deny.

[Windigo]

wut?? No public meetings for Gus?

[Gusington]

I am pretty much an internal facing beast. Thank God.

Good on you.


I'm external facing enough for the both of us.  My anonymity has dipped into the negatives in the last two years.

[Gusington]

If I could be 100% anonymous in every single facet of my life I would.

I'm still waiting for the hookers, groupies and blow to show up.
