It ended with them rolling barrels of gas down the road to stop Pieper, who needed the fuel.

But with war movies far and few between and what seems like little public interest in them I doubt we'll ever see another big budget WWII movie. WWI is about forgotten which, despite it's 'issues' I did appreciate the movie Flyboys for putting it back in the public consciousness however briefly.

..Micheal Bay has many cock ups in his movies ..Bad Boys 2 was another one of his with some cock ups ..like the H2 flying down a hill and you can clearly see the wing mirror going south in one shot and when it lands at the bottom its back on ..paying attention to detail would have fixed that problem but i enjoyed this movie ..

I think the genre is still well served in modern times, Saving Pvt Ryan, Kokoda, Enemy at the Gates, Valkyrie, Downfall and as for WW1 Beneath Hill 60 and Warhorse. All big budget films and as I recall mostly quite accurate in terms of the general story.

I agree with you whole heartedly tho' that most can't spot technical errors and fewer care.

I believe what is important is the accuracy of the story so that the ill informed DON'T end up with the impression that the city of Trobruk became famous because an American and Canadian in the LRDG attempted to blow up the Afrika Korps fuel supplies.

every movie and TV show has this.
Dukes of hazzard is a prime example. it wouldnt have been a lucrative series if it wasnt for this.the amount of vehicles they jumped and trashed during that jump is in the thousands. yet, the vehicle is still drivable afterwards
gone in 60 seconds would be another example.

But, if it werent for fixing such things like vehicles before the next shot or using another vehicle, you wouldnt be able to complete the movie.

i still shake my head thinking of how many classic Chargers were destroyed in that series. the one other horrific thing that still makes me shudder was the wrecking of that classic Indian motorcycle in the beginning of Who Framed Roger Rabbit? i keep telling myself it was all CGI...

i found online that 317 chargers were used during the making of the show and 26 were used in the most recent movie. a total of 17 remain.

That is alot of waste for such a classic and iconic vehicle. thats not even counting other cars that were wrecked in the show
