tht soundtrack aint in the movie

[hippy49]

@shutitmidget: I know. The recording software i had didn't pick up the sound well.

[Penguinz13989]

how come they walk?

[hippy49]

They walked because the british generals thought that the artillery bombardment on the German trenches would wipe the Germans out, so they told the British troops to carry lots of equipment. The soldiers could not physically run with the weight of their equipment

i watched this todday in history i dno why but this time the shooting noise frightened me x

[hippy49]

Thats cos i couldn't record sound on the recording

I played a wav file from a game over the bit he gets shot

Its not part of the actual film sound track

this could be early in the war. before the battlefield was turned into a shit hole.

[xXGreyWolf]

no, this movie is about the battle of the somme, so the no mans land should be all churnned up. cheap ass director

@chicagocubsforever war horse

This looks fake in every way. It's disrespectful to all the soldiers who fought at the Somme. If you want to make a movie about WWI, than make it look like it was, horrible, gore, soldiers screaming in agony. And not like a bunch of boyscouts taking a walk in the fucking park!

[Redheadfury]

@inamonianim A massive development took place, creeping bombardments, covering fire, firing arcs, stand to, portable mortars, battlefield medics, automatic weaponry, the use of shot guns... The somme was 1916, only 2 years into the War, and was one of the first major offensives of the war.

[inamonianim]

@Redheadfury So I misunderstood your comment. Is that any reason to be rude? The war lasted 4 years. It simply baffles me that in that time no significant development in military tactics took place.

[Redheadfury]

@inamonianim No I didn't say that, I said Hindsight makes a Brilliant general. it's easy to criticise something when you A) weren't there and B) know what was going to happen. If the Generals knew that 60,000 men would die on the first day do you think they would of done it? *sigh* Please learn to understand English.

[inamonianim]

@Redheadfury You say that in hindsight the generals were brilliant. If that's the case, why was World War One a series of bloody stalemates? Military beaurocracy kills more soldiers than any number of weapons.

[Redheadfury]

@inamonianim It's the Battle of the Somme, where No Mans Land was a green field.

@jakescuba No, it's not the general's fault. Hindsight makes a brilliant general, they did not know how to deal with fortifications, no one at the time did.

i hate how this movie only shows action in the last 1 min

[callum1131]

@narutoboyalex thats what the somme battlefeild was like, on the first day of the battle is was a bright blue sky with sunshine, not the typical mud field with rain.

@WRigGLes96 It is called the Adagio for Strings by Samuel Barber. In my opinion it is one of the most haunting and beautiful romantic era pieces ever written. I believe its also played throughout the Vietnam movie Platoon.
