The Pacific Critics Trailer (HBO)

[punipunipunisher]

Eh. Beaches today are not what they used to be.

[Halo3kixass]

When I think about it now, I think that World War II storis sound better for the Americans fighting against the Japanese in the Pacific, although they also did fight the German Nazis, and don't forget about D-Day June 1944. That was a big part of the war. But The Pacific isint really like Band of Brothers, where all they do is walk around and randomly some medic or whoever gets their leg blown off by artillery and then they spaz. The Pacific is just mainly the Marines getting through the Pacific

[Raspout1981]

I would kill to have a rôle in a serie like that ! Hell i would even do it for free if they just paid for me for food and shelter !

[Tischdecke]

ive got a question. is this movie based on true happenings, too, like band of brothers? sure, i know the pacific war was real, but i mean the single elements. in band of brothers for example they interviewed old mens who were in war. dyou know what i mean?

[GibboSASR]

@Tischdecke Yes, it was written off of 2 books, "With the Old Breed" and "Helmet for my Pillow". There was a few interviews with veterans, but its been 10 years since BoB, sadly there wouldnt be too many veterans left.

[Usnato4evr]

@Tischdecke Yes it was based on 3 books.

[SmkSimonC]

WTF USA TODAY!?!?! IT SHOULD BE 5/5 STARS!!!

[seanoleary161]

[ToiletGreece]

Must say. God bless the Americans for saving Australia during WW2. We are forever grateful.

[SHENEEchik12]

i love this tv show! and my cousin in law plays a soldier on the beach but its not that big lol

[Shooter882]

what type of art is that at 27-28 seconds? i dont think its charcoal, can anyone help?

[MarcusBritish]

@Shooter882 Watch the full intro sequence - it's charcoal drawings.

[tigerbait134]

@Shooter882 yes, the whole introduction to the series is charcoal in fact

[Shooter882]

what type of art is that at 27-28 seconds? i dont think its charcoal, can anyone help?

[EriccartmanR1]

I know the series will get better. I see a lot of publications give this series the highest ratings possible.

[LilATL94]

Generation Kill and The Pacific were excellent.

Band of Brothers was good.

It's too bad that most people don't know about the Pacific theater than they know about the damn european theater.

[28Deny]

@LilATL94 Damn sthraight;)

[GibboSASR]

@LilATL94 they surely will after this comes out

[Arc9er]

@LilATL94

It's too bad that most people don't know about anything besides the US and how they "kicked the asses of the evil nazis"

[balloonmonster]

@LilATL94 thank you some one who finally thinks the way i do . i think i know sow much a the european campains that i could teach a history class abbout the whermach and the nazis

[fmscribs]

After two episodes, so far, it's very hard to connect with any of the characters in this series. I'm hoping it gets better but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Band of Brothers was excellent. {I own the DVD set}

John Adams was very good. {I own the DVD set}

Generation Kill was not very good.

And The Pacific...well, the jury is still out on it.

But 2 episodes in & I'm not impressed with the writing, directing, acting, or special effects.

Keeping my fingers crossed though.

[slednecks17]

I think the next episode (3) will let us get to know the characters alot more, as they are in australia on r and r, so i think that there is a huge opportunity to let the viewers learn more before the series moves into the pelelui engagement

[ianoh83]

@fmscribs i just started generation kill not impressed so far loved band of brothers but the pacific kind boring hopefully it gets better

[2008einstein2009]

JUST AMAZING TRAILER! 100/100

[xxxTheBulgarianxxx]

AWESOME ! ! !

[AyeWeCan]

looks ok!!!!!

[rdooze]

I got HBO just for this

[worldofdoom995]

@rdooze so did I !!!!!!!!!!!!

[atltom58]

I watched the first episode on the hbo web page but they have now removed it and I guess if I want to see anymore that I have to buy hbo oh well, at the moment I cant even afford basic cable. first episode was good though. The Korean war would make a good miniseries also....

[GGGunitNextLevel]

EPIC

[foleybarbarian]

Next one to come should be on the Vietnam War or the Korean War.

[T1000HD]

It's four stars out of 4 stars// aka XXXX // XXXX

[gunsandbutter1983]

i think they meant 4 out of 4 stars lol

[TheAussie00]

Why only 4 stars? I was hoping 5 :(

[Finchy000]

the first episode was epic this will be a great series. I watched it online but after seeing it I ordered HBO just for it.

[117spartan67]

I watched the first episode on some DirecTV channel but idk if they'll have the 2nd one to. =/

[Blount33Productions]

This will win a lot of Golden Globes like Band of Brothers.

[wopzillia]

i got hbo just to watch this show

[lordon18]

HBo hope do another war series and for german side....

[bigusmcWW2]

go i got to get HBO

[Michaelyumm]

My teacher ecommended this show and I LOVE IT BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[foist101]

OMG the first part last Sunday was AMAZING. The only thing I liked so far about BoB more was that there was the whole training era where you got to know the characters more.

That being said, this IS a different series and I'm sure we'll get that as we go.

[brotherscro]

Damn my subriction to HBO ended today :/ and 2nd episode of pacific is out tomorow :(

[Osires92]

[brotherscro]
