Its long because the original trailer to "enemy at the gates" was long, as well. This is more a parody of I think the three trailers they had, putting all the scenes they had together into one.
Its tough to show a plotline if nobody knows whos supposed to be who
This video is hilarious, but its just too long. the part with the spirit officer is the funniest (we need to improve school spirit, so lets not let 500 cadets leave this weekend and make them go to six hours of tennis matches). After that it kind of drags on. The only funny part after the spirit officer scene was "plebes are still plebes."
a little background for those who might have missed it. This was made at the United States Military Academy at West Point. The (germans) are played by the firsties, or the upperclassmen that have been in the corps for 4 years and are about to graduate. The (russians) are plebes, or underclassmen in their first year. other than that, I guess it should be obvious its a direct parody of enemy at the gates
The reason the trailer is so long is that we just kept coming up with new things to do, and it kept snowballing getting longer and longer.
Glad this is still popular 4 years after we made it!
