I hope he makes a good job of it and doesn't make it too gun-ho and American. Paschendaele was a meat grinder fought in a swamp. Harry Patch is the last survivor from all sides of the battle, still alive at 109.
slednecks fuck u nothing but a dirty little fat ass american canadian were out numberd under trained forww 1 ww 2 but they accomplished what many thought impossible america joined near the end of ww2 like little cowards not helping the allies usa fought a couple battle takes credit for the whole thing canada did what most said impossible not that america dident help and loose men i pay my respects but the truths the truth america dident join ww2 tell the end and dident help in ww1
usa thinks they did more then the allies becouse they got the money to make the movies u rarly see canadian are allie ones becouse everyone played a role but americans act like they did it all cocky little bastards
Meh even if it is at least its Canada and not America or Britain like every other Gung ho War movie ever made. For once we can do our own flag waving (well the red ensign anyway). I imagine Paul gross did his research and I doubt it will be the same as the American or british film Counterparts.
yeah but were talking about passchendaele which was mostly a Canadian battle and how many times have we hear Americans getting involved in wars such as WWI1 and 2 or modern day war in iraq.Well alot and canadians dont get alot of respect and credit when they get in big wars.Every time you go to military channel and they talk about histroric wars they always metion the the american the most. Passchedaele is a movie about canadains and gives credit thaat canaadians did fight in WW1
true + they didnt fight if they had the chance because they dont care about britain because theyr traitiors to the british when the Americans wanted inpdependance but at that time they were still with britain so it was like a civil war.Yes they were late for both world wars and if Japan didnt attack pearl harbor then America wouldnt care anyless to be in WW2
@DjAce001 that is so not true, we would have gotten involved eventually. Anyways, we were involved before the the actual war supplying the rest of the allies; the allies would have been trampled if we didn't provide them ships and weapons.
it is true and American didnt want to be invovled in WW2 and if it wasnt for Japan for attacking pearl harbour, America would just stay home. Canada has alot to be proud of and this is a tribute for all the hidden glory by americans with all their war history. So what if america may have or did nnot supply the allies, this is a important part of Canada military history.Kudos goes to Canada
@DjAce001 I wasn't try to discredit anything the canadians did at all, their contribution to the war is far too underrated. It just annoys me when people discredit the huge sacrifice that America made for a war they easily could have "sat out."
yes it is true americans were in WW1 but compared to the canadians, ANZAC, french, british, pretty much ALL other countries involved they did barely anything. last time i checked USA was in WW1 for roughly 5 months. so dont go thinking that they were the ones who finally beat the germans.
america did indeed participate in the first world war.
they however used alot of canadian and british equipment.
america joined near the end of ww2 because the japs bombed pearl horbour. they didnt want to join earlier because they recalled how tough ww1 was. after all it was the war to end all wars.
Not to mention pres. Wilson helped create the league of nations, a group of countries formed to stop war. The U.S. never actually joined though. And the group obviously failed because of WWll
they did not use that much british equipment and I highly doubt candian equipment (who in their right mind would want to use a ross rifle?) the standard issue rifles used by the US army were the springfield .30 which was based off of the gewehr 88 (or was it 98?) patented by the mauser company of germany
Great little vid, no doubt who's running the show eh? Love the dry humour, who else could use mouse turds as a means of complimenting the set dresser? ! Brilliant
I love this movie, and I'm Canadian, so it relly is something special for me, cuz my grandfather fought in world war 2

"Gun-ho and American"
I doubt you'll have to worry about that. The movie is about the Canada Corps and their involvement.

He knows. Gert meant he hopes the movie doesnt turn into something like Black hawk down.. all gung ho about a country. he knows its not american.

Yes America was in the first world war. The battle of Bello woods, the Arden. The American army and Marines were the one who finely beat the Germens.
It was the American that stood watch on ther rhine.
How could you not know that.
