Hi, my name is Elie Moses and I am a 24 Year-Old Law and Film student here in Sydney, Australia. I have decided to complete the trilogy and watch 'MASTERS OF THE AIR' for the FIRST TIME!! This show is created by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks and is the concluding chapter to Band of Brothers and The Pacific. Here is my reaction to episode 5 of season 1. BANGER EPISODE!

First time watching masters of the air (reaction) - Розваги
Not showing Bremen might have been a story decision. It's good, maybe, to put the viewer in doubt. Crosby was missing, Buck is missing, etc.
I believe i read somewhere that its only 9 episodes because the first episode was supposed to be two. but when they got into post production they realised they would both be very short so they combined them.
And not showing the Bremen mission was probably due to a combination of story/budget reasons, but i think part of it is because they didnt want the missions to get stale for the viewers. The first 3 episodes all focused on missions so i think they were worried the audience would be bored by another flight where they go out, get attacked and then lose Buck’s plane
Bremen was to give you a perspective of those who didn’t know what was going on back at the air field.
@aaronwalters6134 yea i talk about that in the reaction 🫡
@@eliemosesjust reaffirming what you were saying. Band if Brothers is why I served in the Army for 11 years. Masters of the Air by the end of it you may like it just as much.
The purpose of not showing Bremen is to show the base and other crews not knowing what happened to the planes and crews that did not return. They can learn something from the interviews, but as we see, there are still unknowns. I think it was brilliant to show at least one mission like this. All go out, some come back, the fates of the those not known. They didn't know, so we don't know.
I love Nate Mann. He’s gorgeous and styled perfectly here - but this is his first real acting gig on a high profile show. I give him so much props for his wonderful portrayal as Rosie. He wanted to do Rosie justice so he educated himself inside the on-set cockpit and through a flight simulator during his downtime to ensure that whatever they captured on film would look natural.
Ep. 5 was when the show took off for me. Now I can’t wait for Ep 6. I really love and appreciate the direction from directing duo Anna Boden/Ryan Fleck and Jac Fitzgerald’s cinematography in Ep. 5 - excellent work! Ep. 1 - 4 were from a different director & cinematographer.
Rosie is a boss
Rosie was the boss's Boss!!!😮
many aircraft turned around whether they had actual mechanical failures or not to be honest, Col. Curtis Le May, when he took over, started going up with missions with them to make sure that stopped
Regarding Flak. Remember in Band Of Brothers : Breaking Point, the gun that is hitting them was an 88. The 88 started as flak gun the Flak 18. Just to give you some idea of the effect.
Not showing Bremen, despite it being one of the most infamous missions for the 100th, was a story decision. While I liked and appreciated seeing the perspective from those left at base. If the series was going to a show a Bremen mission, it should have been the one in Ep.4, rather than Ep.1. As three of the four lead characters flew the Oct. 8th mission, with it famously Rosie Rosenthal’s first mission. However, considering how devastating Munster was, it is understandable the showrunners felt the audience needed a decompression before this episode. Munster was the mission that earned the 100th its unfortunate nickname of the “Bloody Hundredth”.
The budget issues were due to the producers mismanagement and the UK’s Covid protocols. Not because Apple lowered the budget. It mostly only affected what should have been the tenth episode, and how the miniseries was originally going to end.
I told you that you will be following the legendary Rosie Rosenthal. You just saw the famous Munster Mission. You will see more. I don't want to tell you too much because I want you to learn as you go.
20:20 Not to say that they didnt shoot at people who bailed out, but it was/still is definitely a war crime. You can shoot at paratroopers while parachuting because they are legitimate combatants, but if a pilot bails out of their plane, they are considered defenseless and therefore its a war crime
Seemed like they just had to pic and chose. BOB and pacific relatively had, few battles. Roughly 5 each, here everyday is a new battle. From previous buck and bucky were at over 20 missions. Bremen was Rosies first, they flew another the day after (between episodes) then Muenster here was his third mission in 3 days. Impossible to show them all. Its a very trying theater of the war to cover on film and while there are some changes for the most part its fairly accurate as can be with inherent uncertainties. Bubbles' death was probably the biggest deviation, the real person was kia however it happened much later, but making it here helped the flow of the series and impact of the elisode.
The biggest deviation was actually Russelsheim and the Tuskegee Airmen.
@ChienaAvtzon yeah I meant so far, I keep my comments to what's has been seen as to not mention spoilers
By the time these pilots made their way to England and started these bombing missions they had been through quite a bit of training!! When I first watched this series I really didn't know a lot about the 8th Army Air Force and these bombing missions! Yes I saw the movie Memphis Belle but I didn't make the connection!! When I saw the series I delved into it and did other research and found out that these guys did a lot of training in the States!! FIRST they started with little planes to get the feel of flying then they graduated up to the B-17!! To Do it justice you would probably have to do at LEAST one episode if not TWO showing all of that, unless you really cut it up!! But you're only halfway through the series and I think by the end you will appreciate it, especially when you watch the documentary episode attached at the end called the Bloody 100th!!
When you compare the timeline of the bomber raids the US Army Air Force did it spans around 3 years. They were doing high risk bombing missions 18 months before Normandy so I think one thing to show could have done better was to add in more episodes because it feels like they really rush the story a lot. As someone who has been around b17s and seen them in museum since I was a kid I can say they did a good job with the betrayal but the pacing can be a little bit weird but there are definitely moments where the show shines and I think they do a great job with Rosenthal.
I read somewhere or saw a podcast or something where it was mentioned that the filming of this took place during the height of COVID so I believe that that was another factor in the budget problems!! I think the choice to have Buck disappear off camera was a conscious choice to put us in the shoes of Bucky and the rest of the guys back in England not knowing exactly what happened to him and we are also not knowing what happened to him!! The nine episode thing is a little bit disappointing, I wish they would have spent more time with the Tuskegee Airmen, who you will see in the last two episodes!! But honestly they could probably do an entire 10-part series on just the Tuskegee Airmen!!
There's a great movie from 1995 by that name, Tuskegee Airmen, starring Laurence Fishburne, Cuba Gooding Jr and a lot of others that you would probably recognize who I don't know the names of right off hand!!
It's a great film!!!
Oh God that movies awful 😂
@@BlueDebut well you know what they say about opinions!??
You sure you're not thinking of the 2012 movie Red Tails? Which I heard actually DID suck!! Anyway, for the time that Tuskegee came out in 1995 I didn't think it was a bad film at all.
@@BlueDebut I think the story that they told, which was the actual story of what those men went through and what they actually accomplished, was gotten across pretty well..
@@bernardsalvatore1929 oh! I thought you meant Red Tails! I'll have to check out that movie, I feel like when it comes to the air war in WW2 there's not too many good movies
It was always plained for 9 episodes. What blew the budget was the time it took to get the shots in the filming of the moving Bomber set. And the big issue was Covid. Covid slowed down the SFX pipeline it caused delays in principle photography with having to isolate crews. It basically took a series of 250 million to over 300 million and if the production kept the same level of production through all 9 episodes the costs would have climbed higher. They were asking to extend the post production process another month (and due to Covid it already went like 3 months over the planned completion date.
HBO declined to do the series even with a 200 million budget. As they knew it would lose money. Band of Brothers and the Pacific recouped their budget to earn profit from the home media market which was huge when they aired. They are almost nothing today.
Apple is willing to lose money a projects (often a lot) as they have lately typically earned 200 billion in profit a year. But Apple wasn't willing to just through money forever on the project
One more thing you won't be worrying about NOT seeing the Bremen battle next episode, believe me!!!
He bro great reactions, I hope you can react to the 1990 movie “Memphis Belle” that depicts the final mission of the B-17 Memphis Belle and shows them going to Bremen. Thanks
I am sure that not showing the Munster mission was a story decision on their part. The book by Donald Miller opens with Bucky on leave in London hearing that his best friend Buck Clevan got shot down. Miller goes on to describe the psychological impact that had on Bucky before he too gets shot down two days later. It was a way of representing the attrition on the 100th. He deals with major losses in many of the bomber group but wanted to show how devastating the personal loss of a friend could be. Showing two missions in a row in two episodes would have served no added dramatic purpose. John Orloff tried, with each episode, to mix it up and show different aspects of the air war. The London scene also allowed them to show the effect of the bombings by Germany on London civilians...
IMO last episodes are way too fast paced and don't cover enough of the stories during that time. Like 1.5 years in 3 episodes.
They should have made like 15 episodes of this. But no further comments to avoid any spoilers, watch first and judge then yourself 😊
