I'll watch it because I love bombers but there are some things in there I don't like the looks of.


Nobody's wearing their oxygen mask.   People's voices are easily being heard over roar of the engines.  The bomber loses two engines but it still able to maintain speed and altitude with the rest of the formation.  That single mob of German fighters seems to have more fighters in it than the Luftwaffe had available for the entire front and it doesn't seem to be closing on the formation.

Well, it is Hollywood so...
(and don't be shocked when you learn that they are bombing Nazi vampire/zombie training centers!)

^^ That movie may need to be made...

But if so, the bomber should land so they can taxi around and strafe the zombies and their vampire overlords.

Why bother landing when they can just parachute down onto the top of Vampire tanks and start stabbing people BF1942-style?
