Muhaha this is some good shit ^^
300 SS Bad-Boys against 5 'muricans with Brad Pitt in a E8 who'll win?
Why not skip all the crap and have Brad Pitt alone kill 500 SS with his bare hands?

But well, if you want to see a good series just watch "Generation War". The best one I've seen so far.

If you want to watch a really good series, then watch "Das Boot"

I'm pretty sure there will be also that one guy who thinks this movie is realistic and the plot is based on a true story and then he goes on the internet and starts with a discussion and claims that Shermans could knock Tigers out with one shot.

Generation War or Generation Kill?

Such series are made for the american audience. You can imagine how biased such a series would be.

Stalingrad and Cross of Iron may just be up there as the best WWII movies of all time. (Honorable mention to Das Boot, The Thin Red Line, and Saving Private Ryan).

I think we'll see some good action in it.
Only thing that really bothers me is the very modern haircut Brad Pitt is sporting, looks a bit out of place.

The point of the thread is, that people are fed up with unrealistic, racist and superhero WW2 movies from america.
The OP:
"Check it shrugging off a hit from a Tiger at point blank range
God damn Hollywood! Tiger makes a fool of a Sherman
Also, this movie looks like trash compared to the likes of Saving Private Ryan"
Saving Private Ryan was a Hollywood movie, nothing in the OP mentioned that this is supposed to be a anti Hollywood blockbuster ragefest
I can see people being frustrated but I don't get why you yell at the TV.

ITT stupid people
It's a Jumbo76, not an Easy 8.
It is an M4A3E8. M4A3E2's had a different looking tuuret, a different looking mantlet, didn't have the HVSS suspension, and also had a fatter appearance.

Googling has confirmed this. I'm the stupid one

Brad pitt role in the film seems to be this one, a Tank Commander who started fighting in Africa.

It looks like the tiger took a shot at a very sharp angle though. An E8 angled so sharply (why the tiger would shoot at the angled part I don't know) could deflect a tiger shot
The M4A3E8 even had the upper glacis upgraded with the jumbo's extra armor (178 mm) so it's possible.

Hell you even view one of the Americans gun down a surrendered prisoner of war in that film, which by American standards is pretty damn dark. (Watch the end, you'll see the pussy of an American soldier who couldn't be bothered to bring MG ammo to his squad blast the German who knifed his buddies in the face with an M1-Garand.)
