@wheelchairby284 Thats what happens when you have idiots writing reviews these days, thats all they care about is a dramatic movie historically accurate or not they just can't tell whats a good movie and whats a bad movie because of all the crap that comes out now.

@cindergirl6 you don't see much about the civil war in general. Gods and Generals and Gettysburg, two of the biggest civil war movies ever made were given bad reviews not because of bad acting or filming, but because "they spent too much time recreating events of the civil war, and none about character development." (there was no "character development to be had, since almost all of the characters were real or based on a real person). its a damn shame.

Looks like one pretty lame movie.

[corpralkirsch]

@Scroopulous pretty good for a prank trailer

[Scroopulous]

ahaha you fools. This is a fucking prank trailer. can't believe no one else sees it.

I wish this had worked out. I am writing a family saga that takes place during the Civil War. Part Three "The Lady of Lookout Mount" takes place obviously, here. It would have been awesome to see this movie make it. You don't see musch done about this particular Chatanooga Campaign and the "romantic" Lookout Mountain.

If y'all get this goin I live On Lookout Mountain and have contact with alot of re-enactors that I'm sure would be happy to help

I'm not sure, but I think at least part of the music comes from the movie "Glory." I was one of the reenactor extras in this trailer. I worked hard to lose 30 pounds over three months before the shooting, to get that "campaign lean" look. I'm sorry the funding didn't come through.

and if he can get some investors hell get the money to get more reenactors and props and all that looks like a good movie good luck with it and ill see it if it comes out

[Gebirgsjager88]

[Confederaqte]

[GettysburgGhost1863]

This looks great! I'd love to see this movie come into fruition.

[hollywoodwerewolf]
