  • Why is it called sock war??? That's kinda gay name no offence

  • creen que la guerra es un juego...pedazos de pelotudos,el nacionalsocialismo fué un ideal...una forma de cambiar el destino de europa.

    Hacen parecer que HITLER y toda su causa es un juego.....están equivocados....pedazos de pelotudos.....piensen un poco

  • Was für ne Scheiße....ihr Amis seid eindeutig bescheuert...

  • can you imagine if reenactment was ACTUALLY like that!.. . that would be a sad life.. .

  • BIG SHIT!!! This is JOKE!!!

  • haha nice

  • Comment removed

  • this sucks

  • yeah germans wore swastikas on there arms and ran around in black suits when they fought.very historically acurate. nice job, 1 out of 5! :)

  • the little kid on the german side was kinda gay no offence!

    over all a very good video and im glad for the time you put into this!

  • wow that was cool

  • It's a pity!.. ¬¬

  • that was great

  • lol their using redrider bb guns

  • 05:27 best part, but it sucked

  • haha, translated with a enlish-german texttranslator...^^ U saugst!!!

  • Dieses Video saugt und die Waffen saugen, das einzige Ding, das nett angeschaut hat, war der Uniformen und die Schauspieler waren nur wenig das dieses Video von Kindern saugt so verdammt viel. und es ist ein embarresment zu den deutschen Streitkräften. es wäre funney, wenn die Runden wirklich waren.

  • this was the worst attempt at reenacting ive ever seen

  • Jesus Christ! This is a slaughter of reenacting! Somebody shuld be shot for this!

    Idiots!

  • I've never seen such an embarrassment to reenacting before in my life! The guns aren't even real!

  • where did you get the uniforms

  • just lost 10 minutes of my life.

  • To bad for you, we dont care

  • 5.06 wtf.

  • nice video....lets get him when he's wounded

  • excellent!!

  • If anyone ever wants to see what WWII reenactors are actually all about, watch the movie 'Saints and Soldiers.' The extras in that film were ALL reenactors.

    I was helping with a program at the National D-Day Memorial for the 65th anniversary of D-Day with reenactors (for the fifth year in a row.) We do a lot of stuff with the veterans in our hobby. Gross inaccuracy of the uniforms, equipment, hair, and behavior of the people in this film aside, what reenactors do is MUCH more meaningful.

  • Brilliant!!!  :-)

  • I love this video

  • wheres the socks?

  • This is the worse video I have seen about reenacting. It is totally a rip off of that movie Battle for Shaker Heights.

  • this is fucking awesome.

  • "I just did."

  • its not like paintball we dont fight until someone loses we use scripts

  • this kinda made german people look bad going around saying HEIL HITLER. kind of a sterio typr set there. but VERY good acting and film placement. 10 of 10!

  • ya it did we reenactors barely say HEIL HITLER

  • u guys r good actors XD

  • what a piece of shit!!!!!!none of the uniforms are correct

  • who fuckin cares, ish a good video

  • i give a fuck!!!!!!it makes reenactors look like dumbasses we germans domt go aroung sayin "HEIL HITLER!!!"and shit like that

  • ur very right. ich spriche deustch. es ist O.K., ya? deustch volken hast gutt volken. SERH gutt volken. sorry my german isnt THAT good.

  • du hast SERH richte. i genge es is fucken stier sheisee!

  • ja lol btw its shiza not sheisee oh GO SUCK ONE AND READ A BOOT U DOUCHEBAGS

  • why dont u do some research about german, dumbfuck. if it were spelled shiza, it would sound like shetza.

  • its really good capture...... :)

  • one more thing... this means you all star colour in 2nd year?? because i tought you only worked with black and white and no talking at all...

  • is this a ryerson uniersity film?? if it is, was this in your 2nd, 3rd, 4th year??

  • This was done last year (we were all second year at the time). Are you a Ryerson student/grad as well?

  • no, i wanna apply for next year lol thats why i wanted to know :P

    btw nice work!

  • retarded

  • Cool! I like it.

  • lol

  • Really funny

  • pretty cool mini movie!

    5/5 (very good filming, shooting (camera) and editing, ill give you that)

  • he he thats funny =]

  • This is really good!

    Great shortfilm :]

  • Thanks a lot! The comment is much appreciated!

  • What kind of Video camera did you use man that was good

  • Dumbass bigoted racist asshole...

  • cc903, you are a bigoted asshole.

  • As a WWII buff and someone who prides myself on knowing everything there is to know about WWII, can I just say how offensive the lack of attention to detail in this short is? What on earth were you guys thinking? The uniforms are all wrong, the accents are terrible and the woodland looks NOTHING like Europe. Quite frankly I am appalled. You should all be ashamed of yourselves!!! I am writing the Prime Minister of Canada to have this clip pulled.

  • Oh wait.... this is a student project film and what is on showcase is the productive quality and you guys uploaded it to share it with friends, not with random fools who have little more to do with their time than start petty arguments over student project films.

  • I thought IMDB had some of the most foolish people on the net, but apparently Youtube can certainly compete. The fact that a bunch of people felt so offended by a student film which sends a simple message based on a war that occured more than 60 years ago, supporting the fact that our veterens and the true events of the war have become obscured or even trivialised is quite disturbing.

  • what a fag

  • I think he's defending it lol - atleast that's how I read that comment.

  • man i got your back all the time...these pissy bitches don't know what they're talking about

  • haha i only read his first comment, i didnt bother reading on, my bad

  • Yeah, I was being verrrrrrrry ironic. But youtube has this lame 500 letter response limit, and I seem to have trouble being concise enough to communicate everything I wish to say inside that.

    I don't like being called a fag though, that hurt my feeling.

  • Awesome video, I love it! Just great, thanks for making it!

  • I want to personally thank the writer, director, and actors of this film for changing my life. I am about to embark upon the harrowing journey known as basic training for the United States armed forces. This video has given me courage and hope so that I can face even the most overzealous drill sergeant. Thank you for honoring such great heros as the men in this film. God bless America.

  • AHF Enactors beware

  • Awesome movie dude,excellent executed!!! dont listen to the peanut for brains in here,keep on doing this stuff and you will end up up there.

    cheers.

  • haha, I've got your back Tyler!... but seriously, you're on your own.

  • Wow- reading all this just made my weekend. Thanks! Please, please... continue spreading the word of how insulting and distasteful this film is. Lord knows it gave Da Vinci Code an opening weekend

  • Very good piece of work, some real talent there.

  • oh and btw i only uploaded that video of NY so i could send it to some friends easier. i really dont care what production value it has, but if you think you tube is over flowing with production pieces man i must say were have you been?

  • No man you've totally got me all wrong. I loved your NYC video, especially the thrilling commentary you give in the background. Truly it changed something inside me and how I'll view a city skyline at night from now on. Seriously I look forward to your next epic.

  • so your saying because i dont spend hours searching your tube because i have somewhat of a life i dont have a right to comment on videos... wow man thats real great. you even went into my profile to try to find some way to attack me... id like to say it is low, really low.

  • What's low is all of you criticizing a film students work to the point of 'bringing it to the attention of the re-enactment community' when it isn't even supposed to be taken this seriously. It's a film on youtube. I'm sure you can find something else on here which would be much easier to criticize. Lay off!

  • You're dumb. Seriously, I don't know how to address your comment because I highly doubt your mental intelligence to actually understand what I'm saying. So I'll just make it really easy two simple words. You're dumb. Seek mental help.

  • Look "Larry", I have tried to explain this to multiple people, but it doesn't seem to be getting through. My friends and I are film students. Our assignment was to shoot a pre-written script so we did. It's not about a war - it's about the relationship and bond formed between two brothers.

  • Besides - if you read the synopsis, you'd have discovered it says "Dragged into the middle of a poorly staged WWII reenactment..." key word poorly. Don't try to tell me I have disgraced the veterans of WWII - because you couldn't be farther from the truth. I had relatives killed during the Italian Campaign.

  • Hahah. Tyler, dude, this is awesome.

    Let me get this straight.

    You are writing a letter to your Congressman so he can go ahead and remove a video from YouTube?

    You should really watch "Two Girls, One Cup".

    Personally, instead of writing deliciously ridiculous letters, I think your time could be better spent stocking shelves at Wal-Mart.

  • Ty, theres no need to explain yourself. Its a short project. Done by students,written by students. that was uploaded on youtube. Its all in good fun.

    He should wait till you make your epic war movie when you make it big time. Talk about credibility. LOL

  • WTF? this crap is boring and pointless.

  • Omg you self praising douche bags, this is purely just a film. A SINGLE FILM THAT WAS MADE FOR OUR ENTERTAINMENT! not so you can run your mouth on what's the inner meaning of each frame. Honestly, if you people knew anything about this shit you wouldn't be judging films on youtube. i know enough that films are made for our enjoyment, not for your own mental masturbation. And if you still feel like hating this movie,just shut the fuck up and not watch it that would solve every fucking thing.

  • I really don't see what this video has to do with anything. its showing young kids making a game out of war but did this event ever really take place? Or is it staged to show a point. If so why would you stage it? It can't be a real ww2 air soft game or the girl would have taken the East German insignia off her cap at least. Most of my friends and their friends know war is very real indeed, and know ww2 is very real indeed.

  • So you're twenty four. You've been a member of youtube for almost a year now (congrats) but sadly you've only watched just shy of one video per week. Someone though brought to your attention this video, or you were just happily sitting at your computer trying to think of your... say 49th video to watch and you went with world war two reenactment.

  • Upon finding a video, that you misinterpret to be staged or perhaps real? Sorry this is vague. Alas after watching it you're so moved and perhaps upset that you want to write a comment about it. So you do, a stern scathing remark too! One filled with two syllable words (which I was proud of) and well thought out questions. You reflect on the one video you posted, a thrilling view of New York City, with no production value. It's just you standing holding a camera while wind whips past the camera

  • Realizing to yourself that this one video and your anonymity as a commenter makes you feel somewhat special and like you are even important... nay intelligent enough to comment, you do so. Good on you commanderfritz! And then you click post fully satisfied that out of the less than 50 videos you watched you could definitely pass judgment on this one.

  • Congratulations! You're a huge tool. Most of my friends know you're a tool. Also their friends know you're a tool too. Seriously. You're a very big tool. A very big tool indeed.

  • Ok now I got it. It's supposed to somehow say how my generation has no idea what war is and that it's just a game, through a video of some kids doing some sort a ww2 air soft battle. Where one kid drives 3 hours to participate in it. The thing is, no one I know or have ever known of would do this. I know people who would drive 3 hours for a real reenactment with real uniforms but not for a bunch of guys in black coats and arm bands.

  • what is the point of this film?

  • HOLY SHIT!!! Talking about farb

  • I am glad you understand (or at least recognize) that was the point - especially with the German scene... They're 13 old kids.

  • I'm 14, reenact, and date a 18 yearold who drives me, fucks me, and buys me porn.

  • Congratulations.

  • This film in no way claimed to be historically accurate so please stop criticizing his work, and acting like it needs to fit the demands of the re-enacting community. That is not who he was aiming to please.

  • Yes, this is intended to be inaccurate as the director described, and for goodness sake, if this offends you that much, don't watch it. It is a beautifully done film, and diverboy26 should be commended on his work. However, bringing it to the attention of the re-enacting community will only bring more attention to the film.

  • This video presents perfectly legitimate viewpoints! The younger generations of today have no idea what war was actually like, and many see it as just a game. If you want to see offensive 'war footage', go check out some of the videos on how American soilders are treating citizens in the Middle East. And that is true footage, not even 'offensive re-enactment'.

  • utterly horrified at this clip,

    the only things that make those "Germans" German is the Swastikas and they are shoddy as well, don't make films about such sensitive matters if you arnt going to do it properly, this clip has be bought to the attention of the re-enacting community....expect more bad comments

  • Utterly horrified? My apologies for that, but it would seem to me that you have also missed the point of the film. It's not about accurate reenactments - it's about the naivety of children, and a social reflection on their perception of war. You're seriously picking on the wrong guy here: I am as big a military history buff as the next guy. However, if getting your little "war council" together makes you feel empowered, by all means go for it - good film making often results in controversy.

  • This is the worst amateur reenactment in the history of youtube. This isnt even reenacting...this is make believe BS. No German would be caught in the getup you kids are using, let alone be saying heil hitler every second. It is a shame that people are watching this and getting an impression of what World War II reenacting is about. You do a disservice and false representation to all who are in the hobby, and more importantly to all who were in the war.

  • I'm sorry you feel that way, but you have infact missed the entire point of the film. It is very much supposed to be "make believe BS". And you're right - no German would ever be caught in an outfit like the kids are wearing, nor would they say "heil Hitler" every second. It's not intended to be about accurately representing reenacting - it's intended to be a social commentary on the lack of understanding our generation has for what these individuals actually went through during the war.

  • They're playing war with what ever they can find - but they really don't understand anything about what they're portraying - it's just a game to them. Hence the older brother's complete disapproval. It's a shame you can't open your eyes to the satire of the piece, because you've completely misread our intentions. Also, thanks for the one star rating - it's obvious you have "the critical intelligence" to appreciate what goes into making a film...

  • powerful message at the end with the stepping on the swastika lol

  • I am definately impressed, and a little unsure about how i feel seeing my little brother as a nazi. and a very energetic one at that..

    haha keep up the good work tyler!!! :)

  • looked awesome buddy, good job yet again with directing

  • LOL.. david

  • I love you boys so hard.

  • Brilliant work guys. You will all go far if you keep pumping stuff of this quality out. I have seen things on the big screen look far far FAR less well filmed than this great short.

    I think you seriously need to start thinking about making a full length feature in the summer. If those douches that made that piece of rubbish know as "Blair Witch" can do it and succeed, then so can you!

  • Nice Tyler! Ze German Tuer Family (or ZGTF) was throughly impressed and it had just the right amount of nazi flags to entertain us. ZGTF salutes you. HEIL!

  • WOW. it's AWESOME!!!

    haha tyler, nice cameo!

  • beautifully done tyler, well acted and written. i loved it. i sent it to my extended family so they could peep little zachy acting.

  • so well done. theres nothing i have to say about this, because its all already been said. additionally, i was honored to be on this set - looking forward to more experiences w/ all ya'll

  • wow...just..wow,
