New film out 2014 staring Brad Pitt and Shia Labeouf about a sherman tank crew that go on a deadly mission towards the final days of the war.
Think its based around the tank that is called Fury.





Hope they have done a good job on this movie and not another over-hyped Hollywood garbage.

Hi Karl,
I must apologize for posting another post on this very subject. I did not mean to steal your thunder.
I, too, hope it isn't a summer blow up that is forgotten by August. It sure looks good and that Tiger from Bovington is the last known working Tiger that was captured in Tunisia back in 1943 and salted away.

Karl,
I forgot to mention that I hadn't scrolled down far enough to see your post.

It looks like they will have Shermans. This is something I don't understand. Why have modern movies strayed from using the actual tanks? Armor from the Axis powers of WWII is understandable. But, the US produced thousands of Shermans. These can be seen in older movies, but not newer ones. Patton is an exception. Why not use Shermans? I don't mean for this to be a rant, but rather a query.
