Right, last comment I promise. A few people have pointed out that there's a glaring inaccuracy in this video. When we're flying in the Pacific in 1941, Bill mentions that we've been at war with Japan for 2 years already. Well, seeing as Japan declared war on the British Empire in '41, that'd be strange.
Now, to defend this horrible misstep, I intend to use the same argument that the historical advisors on the real 2001 production of Pearl Harbour used. Forgot to check massive details until it was too late, then hoped nobody would spot it. But naturally this community is built up of people who actually know their shit. Bollocks.
@Specs310 You're talking to a man who dresses up in old clothing and pretends to fly in aircraft. Good sodding luck.
I liked the garden shed tool props no wonder those lancasters were too heavy.
@@SquireComedy squire can u hop in Gladiator again and play chicken with my university building?
@Specs310 It feels good to get that out. Thanks mate.
@@SquireComedy "who dresses up in old clothing and pretends to fly in aircraft". I do that every weekend. DCS, IL-2 sims. Are you saying this is wrong or bad.. but but. It's all I live for! NOOOooooooo!!! LOL Just kiidding... Glad I'm not alone! LOLOL

10:40 to be continued
plot armor ftw
Main characters can only be wounded by the main villain that's a well known fact. Alltho in war movies main characters die unceremoniously in the end for easy closure.
"What did they do in Singapore?"
"Oh Yes quickly, surrender."
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Bruh 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As a person in Singapore I felt kinda awkward lol
They were in 1941, ain't no goddamn way they knew about the Japanese invading Singapore in 1942
@@arandomfinnin1941 Oh yeah, time travellers 😳😳
Still 89% more historically accurate than pearl harbor
I still loved that movie
@@sparta1694 the action scenes are great but the love story is kinda shite
@@_aragornyesyes_7171 I only skip to the action scenes and dont even bother to see the story
Lmao
I cried when i saw the Pearl Harbor attack, but cringed during the whole love story
"I can't swim!" said the American sailor at Pearl Harbor on board an American ship which is intended to go on the Pacific Ocean which got their via the Pacific ocean through water.
"Oh carbonara!" - some poor italian fighter pilot, circa 1941
Fun fact: carbonara is a typical pasta dish made with eggs and meat
@@luomodiroiano6829 thanks, but I've already checked what it is lol

You forgot 'probably'
Nobody:
Squire: so we're going to use shovel as steering column
Haha! It's the most commented thing!
Spade-grip for Spitfires, antlers for the Lancaster, come on chaps!
Used sledgehammers when they were flying the bombers 😂
Good ol British engineering for you, since in the event you happen to crash behind enemy lines, you can use the steering column to beat the enemy to death before you are captured and forced to build bridges, which you can also use the steering column for.
Bill sounds like he's having a stroke when he tries to impersonate that stuttering dude.
Is that what he was doing? LOL!
Wait, what!? That was stuttering? He definedly sounded like he was having a stroke.
I thought he was like pretending to fall asleep or something, that is not what a stutter sounds like
I love that the plane joystick is a shovel. purely ingenious!
High quality props is our thing.
@@SquireComedy you might want to clarify that you'd used a spade
Sometimes their genius is... it's almost frightening.
Looks like a hatchet job to me...
I almost shot my prostrate out my ass laughing when I saw the stick/shovel handle....
“Wait what am I watching? That doesn’t look very accurate” two words “war” “thunder”
Its funny how there were two real pilots "George Welch" and "Kenneth Taylor" who fought off Japanese Zeroes at Pearl and their story was far more interesting than the movie was.
Bloody agree with that.
Or how the movie tries to steal away Thach Weave as if it was invented by movie protagonists when they were in training before the war "playing chicken" and has nothing to do with a man it is named after...
Welch and Taylor were heroic, but they got one Zero (Kaga fighter) at most during the fighting at Pearl. The bulk of their seven kills were unescorted dive bombers.
@@Nachtsider that's probably because the dive bombers were more of a threat to the fleet, u try sinking a battle ship with machine gun touting zero pmsl
@@tictoc3148 Actually they engaged the dive bombers over the airfields, not the fleet, only long after the Japanese had already delivered their ordnance, and were on their way home. The 250kg bombs carried by the Aichi D3As were poor weapons to use against battleships; not one of the battleships sunk at Pearl was taken out by dive bombers alone.
you know its gonna end up being absolutely hilarious when the title is "If (incert film here) was a british film"
And historically accurate! Don't forget that bit!
@@SquireComedy accurate as no one else can be!
@@SquireComedy still more accurate then wt teams in rb
@@Galm02 indeed! I see a tiny (but extremely powerful) and extremely fast British tank AT THE BACK LINES!
@@Galm02 There are teams in War Thunder?! I thought those were rivals to steal kills from!
Still more realistic than the real movie
Correct.
yes but white tiger is urod now
Couldn’t be hard! Although there’s no leading lady? Maybe this wasn’t filmed at the weekend?
Right? The idea they could take off in a B-25 under 500 feet with Alec Baldwin on it?! Lol.
Just watch tora tora
the pun where it said "anything but a lancaster will dolittle." that got me
Imagine that scene where the general is like "If you want to go on this mission, step forward" and they all step forward, and I can't help but imagine how awkward it would be if one of them didn't.
Hahaha!
Could be worst, if they all step backward instead of you, which automatically make you a 'volunteer'.
This one took me years to edit. I started in 2020. We sincerely hope you enjoy the show chaps, and we can only apologise if you're asleep by the end of it. Any ideas on some more films we could rip-off? I'm open to suggestions!
If the last samurai was a british film
War thunder
Star wars
1917
Rip off midway

"I am done procasinating for today"
YT:
"NO YOU AREN'T, ONE OF YOUR UA-camRS JUST RELEASED A VIDEO"
Aha! And It's a long one, so you'll be here for bloody ages!
"God this film is slow!" Couldn't have said it better myself. If i win the lotto, I'm sponsoring you. This is what British comedy is all about. Keep em comming. Also, I got every refrence to every war movie.
Huzzah! Thanks old chap, that means a lot. Be safe out there!
Did you get the Bader reference?
@@ltdminer9549 Douglas Bader. Yeah he was hard core. Lost his legs in a flying incident between Wars, shot down 109's with false legs straped on, and ended up at Coldits. Ever hear the joke about him talking to a girls school post war? "I was at 3,000 feet taking on several of these fokers, and managed to shoot down three of these folkers." he said. The head Mistress embarrassed told the girls that a Folkker was a German aircraft. "That may be..." replied Douglas, "but these folkers were in Messersmits." ;)
@@Highice007 No, but that doesn't sound abnormal lol
9:21
*plane's tail got chopped off by a revolver round*
Italian Pilot: Oh Carbonara.
If this was British Pearl Harbor then it would be called scappa flow.
Or Singapore.
Or Taranto
@@Vvoornth That's the Italian Pearl Harbor
I live right next to scapa flow
@@angusrendall2554 Is the Royal Oak still there, or did time slowly remove it?
The tools for a sticks, I'm dying.
"I'm not spending the next 4 years building a bamboo railway bridge in Burma with Alec bloody Guinness" - I see what you did there haha.
The things such as the Douglas bader reference make this all that much better
Not sure if many people picked up on it! But I'm glad you did, sir.
Also, for anyone wondering what the significance of Leftenant Henderson and Private Bryan is, take a look at "If Saving Private Ryan was a British film".
Put simply, we enjoyed his silly voice.
Nice
What if the movie Battle of the Bulge was a British Film
So many options... Top Gun, Flyboys, Memphis Bell, Battle of Britain! Oh wait that was British! Muhaha. Or what about "Iron Eagle"? Or is that too old and cheesy these days? LOL
Oh ye lol
the 1973 Film Now Where Did the 7th Company Get to? It would be nice seeing British soldiers running arcoss the French countryside after losing the rest of their division,
Although ill be hard to pick which BEF force they came from THAT wasn't at dunkirk.
13:00 "Sending anything other than Lancaster would doolittle"
I see what you did here...
Ah hahaha
You know Squire’s fallen on hard times when even their binoculars are cardboard
We've been using them for months. Been in 3 or so videos I think!
@@SquireComedy Ah, well it makes me nostalgic of the old Cardboard Warfare series on UA-cam seeing all of the props so perfectly fine by me.
Better than LIDL weekly special binoculars.
9:19 as an Italian, this made me chuckle.
This piece of British cinematography is breathtaking!
Many thanks, chap.
Moral of the movie: Rule Brittania
@@melonmusk6464 yasss all those little countries who left the empire aren't doing very good ruling themselves they should come back especially those Yanks...
The ending “Doolittle raid” should’ve been the famous Raid on Taranto with the Fairey Swordfish. I think that’s a good equivalent!
I hope you mean Taranto. I don’t think raiding Toronto would’ve done any wonders for the allies...
They probably returned to their base in Montreal afterwards!
Also, 2nd comment but don’t care, Pearl Harbour actually took a lot of inspiration from this raid, so yeah it would be pretty fitting
Thanks for the correction, the auto correct remains undefeated
Taranto raid happened in 1940, it wouldnt fit in the film.
Looks like the ,,Royal Airforce" turned into the ,,Royal Gardentoolforce"
"And Sir, where are we landing?" "Have you ever build a bamboo bridge?" "No Sir." "Then you have a chance to learn it from the best ones in Asia."
10:46: Be honest, how many times did it take to nail that scene
God I'm glad there were only a handful of people watching.
As Italian pilot always said:
OH CARBONARA!
The puns are on point. "Ohh, Focker!" and I laughed out loud with the I-Tie fighters
dont forget "i hate these italians with their slanty eyes"
"i think you mean ITALICS"
I wonder what would happen if “Girls Und Panzer” was a british show?
Ohh PLS DONT GIVE THEM IDEAS I DONT WANT SOME GUYS WEARING A FAKE BOOB
Then I would be forced to commit a bloody war crime.
Oh so much this
@@kurtgeraldtomada4451 oh my God that would be way to funny
@@kurtgeraldtomada4451 Now you've got me interestly curious.
"private byran" ok so is this a shared cinematic universe?
The joke is that the actor in that part of Pearl Harbor was also the SSgt in Saving Private Ryan
Priviet tavarish marshal
War thunder cinematic universe: where litterly nothing makes sense
If Pearl Harbour was a British film, the word "harbour" would be written correctly with the letter "u" after "o"
There isn’t a u sound. For a nation who swears they hate the French, you do love their antiquated language rules
@@wisemankugelmemicus1701 our sheen Thedish sprach doesn't need the words from the French and doesn't need their writing laws. Since now on we will write herebeorg like our forebears did!
Imagine being so full of yourself you call the way you write definitively better then the way someone else writes when they mean the exact same thing.
@@ohitsrusher842 imagine being so touched by this statement that you don't even recognise it as an obvious joke
@@richardstratford7126 To quote you 'written correctly' I'd understand if the joke was about who rights it correctly but it was just a joke about a name change
14:04 The hand moved on its own.
“We’ve only been in this war for two years, and already we’re in danger of being attacked!” Underrated line
If anything was a British film.
We'll run out of films to rip-off eventually.
@@SquireComedy if jojo rabit was a bri ish film
@@SquireComedy Just re-run some old rip-offs.
@@SquireComedy if Top Gun was a british film, but with Harriers
@squire if 1914 was an American film (sorry If the film title is wrong)
14:11 I love how the carrier co is like: "Bloody hell, get out of the way stupid bombers. You ain't even supposed to travel at sea, that's our lane !"
Nice to have worked with you Squire!
“Oh carbonara” is the best line
I love how he’s flying a plane with a shovel, also bills radar sounds are spot on
Fun fact: most of the people who post/read comments haven't finished watching the video.
yep
Perhaps.
So truw
No shit
Yah true
If it where a British film the RAF would’ve intercepted them because they knew how to use radar
@@space_designs because taranto
The USA was not at war with Japan when the aircraft were detected Einstein.
@@space_designs Comm___
@@space_designs the attacks carried out by the Japanese against the British and Americans were coordinated to start at the same time but because Pearl Harbor is on the other side of the international date line some of the attacks took place on Dec 8th.
Britain and Japan weren’t at war until the attack on Hong Kong and the landings in Malaysia which happened on the 8th December.
Ouch
13:30 The props are absolutely rocking it, he's flying with a goddamn hammer!
Like always, my good chap.
When War Thunder finally gets subs, there just _has_ to be a "If Das Boot was a british film".
I agree that would be great
2:36 oh look a shovel
0:08 "great flying dad" xD
I'm now just waiting for "if a bridge too far was an even more British movie"
Last time I was this early, the Japanese hadn't bombed a bunch of Spruance-class destroyers in 1941.
"Oh Carbonara"
As an Italian, I died here! :D
Ah yes, everyone knows how much the Italian Navy was known for their tide turning aircraft carrier fleets!
I completely cracked up when the Japanese "yoooooooo" sound popped up, jolly good video chaps.
What’s it from?
Don't forget that pear harbour was inspired by the british attack on the italian fleet at taranto. The japanese naval attache watched the whole thing and took notes
'We can't die, we're main characters.' No one from Game of Thrones ever.
I almost spat out my tea when that "nurse" came on lol fuckin hell Squire.
He's fully qualified. Just not as nurse, if you catch my drift.
Once again, only on this channel would I actually watch the advertisement at the end. Not only a great skit about the movie, but also another bonus skit about bond and [insert product here].
Haha, thanks mate!
Smashing performance as always, makes you proud to be British.
Haha, thanks Toby!
"No. You're on our side! It's 1941!"
Was zum Teufel macht ihr Idioten! Ihr seid doch auf unserer Seite! Es ist erst 1941! Haaaaaa. Klassisches War thunder. As a German it was really funny to listen to that lol. And translate this.
13:49 wait that's just a sledgehammer that's going to go right through a zero
I just love the board at the back in 12:19
"So how many bombs do you want to carry?"
Danny and his aircrew: *Y E S*
As an American, the "u" in harbor is giving me an allergic reaction
You knew the deal as soon as you subscribed! Welcome to the new British Empire.

"Oh, hang on, I got one, I bloody got one! Ah ha! Oh Fokke..."

“Two videos a month” they said
In my defense, this one is the length of two.
You misunderstood... it was two months for a video.

Awesome video/meme as usual! Love it Squire & all your help.
This is the best one by far, Squire! Especially loved the Lancaster bit at the end
All we would need now would be If Midway Was A British Film (Featuring the Fairey Swordfish and the Bismarck)
Don't forget to add Sabaton.
@@MrSleepy677 yes of course! How could I forget?
Next: if Bismark was a British movie
Man i was having a crappy day yall made me smile thank you.... you guys are very talented Much Love From Texas
Omg the shovel handles for the ring grip stick lmao. Mint.
Well done boys! I enjoyed YOUR "Pearl Harbor" a hell of a lot more than the original!
What can I say? After watching that abomination the wife and I walked out to the car, she looked at me, I looked at her, and then asked: "So. Do YOU want to start, or should I?"
Sometimes it's rough knowing too much.
13:01: "But to send anything other than a Lancaster would Doolittle." See what you did there :D
Friggin' brilliant as always. Loved the Italians, Vittorio did a great job. "Oh carbonara" had me in stitches :-P
my god the improvement in content is astonishing its always great seeing any of your uploads!
Glad you think so! Thanks buddy!
This one genuinely had me laughing all the way through, well done :D
Please do more movie parodies, you're amazing! I wouldn't mind another Connery Bond film😂
Cheers, Jon. Will do!
i love it when bill has an aneurysm every time he speaks lmao
Great work squire keep up the good work
YAY! New Squire Video! My day just got better!
Wow performing anti aircraft with small arms? I didn't know Rimmy's grandfather was in Malta for the war
8:23- Steve also known as PhlyDaily
A joy to watch as always. Thanks guys.
Hullo old chap! Marvellous upload! Hope to see more!
It’s been said before and I’ll say it again. Squire has an amazing radio voice.
The snoring character bears a striking resemblance to a certain mailman named Dag-Otto, from Swedish theatre comedy.
No matter the inconsistencies, this brilliant edition of 'pearl harbour' is 100x times more entertaining and deserves all the recognition that the orginal pearl harbour wanted should be handed to the fine fellows who have made this masterpiece.
Keep up the amazing work lads! Ive been a fan scince the start :)
0:47 I always loved the sound of the Welsh language...
we've got to protect our maltesers had me dying of laughter XD

“We can’t die! We’re main characters!”
