[MINIHermanator]

[valmitchel]

[Payneisgod1]

What the name of the music that starts at 5:00? I just need to know the name lol!

[krixx691]

@Payneisgod1 sarabande

[MasterOfFlash92]

he got overconfident or history would look allot different :p

[MrKrauserKiller]

Great Napoleão!

[KOLN555]

Is this from War and Peace?

[mafiagman]

this is too epic.

[ThrawnDuGard2]

you can't base Napoleonic warfare only on the russian invation and the battle of waterloo...

They only took up a few months all togedder... The wars that Napoleon was a part of stretched in over 20 years of war...

[dpsantos1994]

I'm sorry, could anyone tell me the title of the movie (in the beginning)? I'd really like to know!

[denovemportem]

All the images come from the same movie: "Voina i Mir" (War and Peace) by Sergei Bondarchuk, 1967

Um Abraço...;)

[dpsantos1994]

Obrigado! :D

[Toyotomi]

5:30 - 6:00 this part reminds me of the opening cutscene for Cossacks: European Wars from 2001.

[HDROSpieler123]

@Toyotomi

attacking riders(+smoke)>defending riders>attacking riders again >defending riders ride at the side + cannon fire > attacker got shot down ,cannons fires very quickly

Its the same, even the same order (Maybe cossacks intro got ispired by this film)

[ARP7777777]

Don Meaker, how many soldiers do you think the U. S. Army HAD in 1937??? Less than 200,000! Please find out the facts before talking about intervention when it was improbable.

[DonMeaker]

A single regiment was more than what Hitler sent into the Rhineland, and the potential strength of the US was much greater.

[UnitedProviences]

Of which time may I ask?

[DonMeaker]

I was thinking of 1935, when Hitler convinced the Wehrmacht to violate the Versailles agreement openly (they had been all for being sneaky violators, such as training with tanks in USSR). Only a couple of infantry battalions were sent in.

[L3AnTaZ]

hmm play Empire Total war and there is real Napleonic war

[ajferet]

The theme music from Barry Lyndon? B.L. was set before the Napoleonic wars (indeed before N. was born)

[seafireliv]

Thta must have been almost as difficult to make logistically as a controlling a real army!

I`d forgotten about those days when thousands of real people were used to repicate real military wars.

Epic.

[drronnie]

whats the music at 5:40? thanks

[MaxRWF]

Haendel's sarabande

[LlianeLeFey]

In case of my country, Germany, we are living in a democracy because we made some tiny mistakes along the way to world domination... so the USA conquered us and we learned to like it...

In case of most other countries,... well, I suppose, they were taken in by the example of Great Britain and the USA...

[pspallone]

yeah sure tiny mistakes...

[tokra4040]

The Wars mennaient by Napoleon's France woke the notion of nationnalisme and have amenné the idea of democracy in everything colonies, included Germany!

[DonMeaker]

Tiny?  Like selecting Schicklegruber to be the fearless leader/drug addict?

[LlianeLeFey]

It was meant ironically...

Well, I suppose, Schickelgruber himself was not the main problem - at least from a purely military view-.

It worked out quite well until Schickelgruber decided to wrestle with the russian bear while Great Britain was still alive and kicking...

And by the way:

George W. Bush has a way of thinking that often reminded me of Mr. Schickelgruber.

If he had not been restrained by various forces (free press, high court...), he would have been a very dangerous man.

[DonMeaker]

I disagree. If FDR has send a few Army and Marine regiments to throw Hitler out of the Rhineland before the massive German buildup, and Germany had several elections, threw out the Nazis, put Hitler on trial and hanged him...

Then FDR would have had a chance to match George W. Bush. As it was, the US took 300,000 deaths due to FDR's inaction in the face of evil.

[CommandCentre]

You do know Hitler was voted man of the year in America by Time Magazine in 1938. And like most European powers, they didn't want to go to war or get involved...and America had an isolationist policy.

[DonMeaker]

And FDR tried to take "credit" for the Munich agreement.

[DALLASot]

Why do you call him Schickelgruber? Some sort of attempt to be funny?

[DonMeaker]

Just to let you know what kind of contempt I hold for that syphillitic incestuous scum.

[LlianeLeFey]

@DALLASot

Because his father had had this name and he would have had the same name if he had not adopted the name of his stepfather...

[qbek1982]

No one make such movies anymore. Thousands of extras in real uniforms and epic scale "real" battles. Especialy soviet cinematography was leading in such live frescos. If you ask me what good thing has been brought to humanity by soviet union I will say "movies like this one". Nowdays computers will take care everything and with 100 ppl you can make every battle you want. Althou old school still rulez (maybe except those horses really killed by injuries during makeing some scenees).

[DonMeaker]

Like saying the good thing about slavery was the Negro Spritual...

[redewell70]

what is the name of the french marsh starting arround 8:46 heard it sometimes and its great...thanks!

[chaloner]

It's ashame that Hollywood doesn't even know how to make epic movies like this. If they did it would be all CGI crap!

[deadhorseman]

dont talk about CGi! Its a shame that movies overuse CGI to the point of it being sickening but when its used correctly it can be very affective.

[zweg2]

Like in transformers? It's effective there.

[newclarence]

This was an interesting and vivid reenactment. But they brutalized those horses for the sake of some movie.  Not nice.

[jonvonman]

wah wah

[gulac1104]

this is from a soviet movie War and Peace lol

[zl602]

I have never seen that battle in the german version of war and peace

[patrycjadrobik]

Vive l'Empereur !!! Vive Duché de Varsovie!!! Vive Jean-Christophe Napoléon!!!!!

[Lapata999]

Your comment is not relevant those are military marches from the time period not a random classical peace.

[pisadinho]

I would have prefered to listen in the background to the sounds of the batle. The war has nothing to do with classical music. War is not beautiful. Just imagine to wear same socks for months in a row. Does such thought wake musical feelings inside your mind Of course not. Russian napoleonic campaigns and classical elegant music are in the antipodes of human experience. Music. Elegance, well Fed people ,happiness. War . Hunger , dirt, pain.

[Meedeast]

Vive l'Empereur !!!

[TroupeDeMarine]

Vive L'Empreur! Grace Dieu nos Bonapartiste!

[albertdemorcef]

Je suis carrément impérialiste et Bonapartiste! Je veux le retour d'un BON empereur pour qu'il lave cette époque de merde.

[TroupeDeMarine]

Huzzah!! =) Vive les Bonapartistes!

[Silvio823]

Salut Albert, oui tu as raison,

mais n'es-tu pas content de Sarkoléon Ier ?

[albertdemorcef]

mdr, non lui c'est un incapable soumis aux chinois et aux Américains. Il fait que de la merde mais avec l'autre ca aurait été pire. Ce n'est que mon point de vue.

[Grabonov]

Please help!

What's the name of the song, which starts at 1:43?

[Mohawkmarcje]

The Choral-version (song, hymn,) of the March of the Preobrazhensky Life Guard Regiment.

[Mohawkmarcje]

Choral (Hymn) of the March of the Preobrazhensky Life Guard Regiment.

[kb5zht]

I love listening to this music with the videos.... John Tiller's Napoleonic battle games all had a beautiful musical score which included this piece. For you war gamers I recommend trying Battleground: Waterloo or Borodino

[Letzebuergerr]

no one cares what the brits tell the world,napoleon was a great man and that's the way it is!

[ZeitgeistWI]

Napoleon was a great military genius but he is often overlooked for the many other reforms socially that he helped to bring about. The reason it is called the Napoleonic Era is not only his dominance as a political and military figure but also because of the other advances he brought to Europe. Madness and a bit eccentric but a great mind nonetheless.

[KienKong]

Sehr gut! Perfekt, genau für Strategiefans!

Very GOOD! Perfect for strategyfans!

:-)

[goto123]

la première musique est la marche de la garde consulaire; à 5:00 la sarabande de Haendel; à 6:37 Hohenfriedberger Marsch du grand Frédéric et à 9:00, ça reprend la marche de la garde des consuls, le reste, désolé, je ne sais pas.

[Cambronne26]

Magnific video (5 stars) ! formidable music !

Congratulations....

[Grabonov]

Which song start at 1:43?

[Araman84]

Very good video I wearing Grenadiers uniform but Austrian from age 1798 last time a wear it was on austerlitz 2007 (very good battle 800 soldiers was been there) . VIVAT KAISER FRANZ 1 and grettings from Czech Republic (from 59. infatry regiment Leopold Joseph Maria von Daun later Langois)

[Lapata999]

That march fits Napoleonic era just fine. Plus there were Prussians in Napoleons Grande Arme as well as  other European nationalities conquered by napoleon.

[TakNSDAP]

Except the footage is mainly taken from the Russian version of War and Peace, which covers the battles of Austerlitz to Borodino, and had absolutely no Prussian involvement in either one.

Moreover, the Hohenfriedberger Marsch was written by Frederick the Great, who reigned during the 7 years war and LONG DEAD when Napoleon started his conquest.

Perhaps the author should have included Bondarchuk's Waterloo, which would have justified Prussian involvement (and the march).

[dam417]

What is the name of the first song?

[TakNSDAP]

... Hohenfriedberger Marsch?

Well, I have to admit, that was a nice touch, even though the Prussians weren't present at all

[Lapata999]

The film is (1965) War and Peace

[empereur59]

what film is it ?

[Lapata999]
