The Pacific - Part 7 "Peleliu Hills" Promo [HQ]

[ScottishIron]

I found The Pacific much more harrowing and moving than BoB

[shitchops]

@Liverpool1337 I wouldn't say its better brother, just different.....

[tenientesantiago]

when the japs kill the skipper i say nooooo that part is sad D:

[mac19971]

@Liverpool1337 It is actually... And a lot more Grizzly and INTENSE.....

[legohi1124]

have you watched the philippines "great surrender"? usa vs. japan.

[brothersinarms075]

I dont care if band of brothers is better or the pacific, all i say is that both are epic. and i dont know why people discuss but you must know this is not about what's the best series but it is a tribute to those who fought in that 'war'

[kmklover]

The dead Jap that Sledge was gonna yank the teeth from fucked the scene up. At first you can clearly see his eyes are closed shut when Sledge has his hand on his head, then when he pushes it away his eyes are wide open staring right into the camera...

[rapmili23]

Band of Brother is the Best War Epic EVER!.. same producers and directors the pacific have and thats why its a good movie..

[Snako85]

@Liverpool1337 Band of Brothers was better

[bayonet262]

Out of the 2 I like the Pacific more, Mostly beacuse my father fought in it on Iwo Jima and Tarawa. Band of brothers was great but The Pacifc really showed the emotion and how the characters changed from the begining to the end

[Snako85]

@bayonet262 BoB did the same but better

[jukokerguy]

The Pacific > Band of Brothers

[Snako85]

@jukokerguy Band of Brothers> The Pacific

[playstationextremist]

@Snako85 Band of Brothers = The Pacific. Quit being a troll and respect that both miniseries are fantastic, and offered a well done portrayal of the soldiers it portrayed.

[dharmajazzbum]

I noticed an interesting find with ep 7 and ep 9. It has to do with Sledge's view on surrender. Did anyone else notice it?

[MCsquirrel2010]

@dharmajazzbum Yeah it was designed to show how sledge has changed from episode 5 to 9 and his loss of morality after combat and how he regains it at the end of part 9

[Snako85]

@Liverpool1337 i liked band f brothers more

[Jingelbells1993]

@Snako85 ? why do you like band of brothers more than "the pacific" ?

[Snako85]

@Jingelbells1993 i just thotit was better iin terms of how it portrayed outside the fighting plus it had a better formula

[mac19971]

@Snako85 But The Pacific was very affective than Band of Brothers, and it was emotional too.

[Snako85]

@mac19971 for u maybe but band of brothers had a deep impact on me but the pacific was good and band of brothers was more emotional

[mac19971]

@Snako85 Yeah, but this mini series had a new variety, the ending of the series was VERY SAD. You saw the entire series right? from chapter 1 to 10?

[mac19971]

@Snako85 scenes of part 7 were sad. and part 9 was EXTREMELY SAD.

[Snako85]

@mac19971 in band of brothers part 9 there was n nazi deayh camp and it was treally depressing in part 7 artillery strikes were killing many people and the dramatic feel of band was just better than the pacific

[playstationextremist]

@mac19971 agreed. i like it better.

[mac19971]

@playstationextremist The Pacific?

[playstationextremist]

@mac19971 yea. ill admit, BoB had a better formula, but The Pacific really went into the soldiers perspective and showed the true horrors of war, something which i believe was missing from BoB. It also showed how pointless it all was, and how it was just a bunch of kids taking lives and losing lives. It was indeed a much more emotional series because of this. Episode 9 and 10 left a mark on me.

[mac19971]

@playstationextremist Same here Bro, same here. Like the time Snafu was throwin' pebbles into that japanese soldiers head, THE TOP OF HIS HEAD WAS GONE.... AS IF HIS HEAD WERE A CUP...... It was kinda Grizzly, Savage, yet Humorous at that part. As well as the time Sledge slipped in a mud stream and landed into that have ruptured Corpse. Nasty.. LOL.

[playstationextremist]

@mac19971 yea after the lady with the baby is blown up by the japanese, and Sledge and Snafu are inside that hut looking at that crying baby, wondering if it was a trap or not. That scene was one of the most suspenseful and mind-numbing scenes i have ever seen. It worried me, and thats what i think the Pacific did a great job doing. It made you feel for the characters and made it feel as though you were experiencing the same horrors.

[mac19971]

@playstationextremist EXCTLY MY FRIEND!!!!! IT HAD THE MOST HARSHEST THIGS A HUMAN WOULD COME ACROSS IN WAR........ BOB....... Did not have it........

[playstationextremist]

@mac19971 agreed.

[calebinoutlook]

@Liverpool1337 i havn't seen them all yet. but from what i've seen i think its prettey even. i liked how BoB had TONS of characters. The Pacific has way less. but i like teh fighting better. its more gritty i think. but i still love them both.

[jmgrant2468]

this is why my Uncle Manny had issues and Grandpa Davis still has shell shock... 

[whiteknightdarkworld]

Great episode, highlights the fact that the pacific was a totally different war than the cakewalk in Europe!

[agrigoat]

@whiteknightdarkworld wow, way to show respect. Good to know D-day, Caan, Arnhem, Stalingrad, Kursk, The ardennes, Anzio, Sicily, Crete, the Air-war, the Atlantic, The seelow heights, Berlin...etc etc were such a stroll.

[whiteknightdarkworld]

@agrigoat a walk in the park compared to the Pacific! get your facts straight and get a new Name!

[agrigoat]

@whiteknightdarkworld Erm I hate to say it but maybe you should check your facts and prejudices first? Soviet casaulties at the battle of stalkingrad were of the order of 1.1-1.2 million (including maybe 300 million dying). The battle is commonly acknowledged as amongst the most horrific and intense in human history. Total US casaulties for the entire pacific theatre were in the order of 1/4 of this.

I'm not saying the pacific war wasn't horrific, I'm saying europe was too.

[agrigoat]

@whiteknightdarkworld Also I don't really want to waste anymore of your time or mine so maybe we could leave it at this?

[fizzandy]

only episode that has made me cry like crazy,

best episode of the series so far - hands down.

[pupentaco]

@fizzandy Same here, its just sad to see that nice captain got killed

[ASJO19]

I Thought best episode so far

[AzzE87]

at 0.09 whats the name of the guy to the right? (not the actor)

[shiz187]

@AzzE87 thats rv burgin.

[demeandr121]

@AzzE87 Sgt. Burgin.

[MrOLiPaGe]

does snafu survive through out the hole series if not when does he die? ...

[metzemerte]

@MrOLiPaGe he survives the war

[seaturtle908]

@MrOLiPaGe snafu is my fave.

[luftwaffe789456123]

@MrOLiPaGe whos Snafu?........the Boastful guy who Cuts the teeth of the Jap?.................yes he survive.

[Fedling16]

Probably best of the series so far, the lattest being Iwo 'Failure' Jima.

Can't wait for Okinawa though!

[shastonable]

@Fedling16 thats really true

[rawdawg15]

That's right, set those japs on FIIIAH!

[3picvn]

[indigomist]

The ending was so poignant.

[shastonable]

great episode peops

[shinfield13]

eugene is my favirote character, Leckie is way to layed back.....

[shastonable]

@shinfield13 Leckie's story is over forget him

[MpowerdAPE]

best episode so far, i always thought E. Sledges memoir was the best. this episode captures alot of what effected me in the book. ive never even been near a war, but i felt a little "older" after i read this.

"With the old breed" :Eugene B. Sledge. it should be required high school reading. imho

[domoorigato]

This was easily the best episode yet. It really showed the horror of fighting the suicidal japanese on Peleliu and the mental drain it placed on the soldiers. You actually are beginning to know who the characters are.

[MpowerdAPE]

@domoorigato i didn't think it could be done outside of the book , but they managed to capture the slow grinding brutalization these guys went threw.

Eugene is no longer a babe in the woods, he's a HARDENED burnt out combat vet.

i must agree, best episode thus far.

[indigomist]

The ending is the best bit (not this trailer)

[Swinged]

I expected to see Leckie in part 7.

[EJMUFC]

@Swinged

We might not see Leckie until part 10 now.

[xxxdaniiiii94xxx]

mm...can't wait for this part! :D

[commanderpopeye]

[AlonsoMan24]
