The Tiger tank they faced off against is a real wartime veteran- Tiger 131, the last remaining operational Tiger 1 in the world. It was captured in Africa by the British and is now held by the Bovington Tank Museum. The BTM also holds 'Fury', used in the film.
So two things I would like to help you guys clear up that you seemed a bit confused on....the prisoner they shot was actually legally executed under the Rule of Engagements/War/Geneva Convention. If pay attention, when you first hear the soldiers find the prisoner asking him "where did'ya get that boy?, Who'd did ya kill for it". The coat the prisoner was wearing was an american combat uniform/coat. Under the rule called "Ruse De Guerre" (Ruse of War) any enemy combatant found wearing the uniform of the opposition is considered hostile w/ ill intent to his captures. Meaning some wore their enemies uniform to trick them and kill them..Specially since many germans knew enough english and some fluent in it...and rarely were able to immitate american accents. The Second Scene I saw you confusion in was the eggs and cigarettes...basically at this point germany's infrastructure and economy were completely destroyed....many people could not get basic necessities as many supplies were destroyed/lost or confiscated by the german army...Eggs were some of the commodities hard to get a hold off and cigarette, like in prison became a source of trade/currency.
this applies to CIVILIANS as well.. no civilian can participate in combat in non combat uniforms they lose protections under the law and can be executed.
Absolute bullshit. Soldiers take trophies. This is a well established fact. You're assuming he took the coat with nefarious intention and not just because he was a kid and thought it was cool. The fact the Americans then say "Who did you kill for it?" makes it clear they're killing him out of some misguided attempt at revenge not because they believe him to be a spy. At this point in the war they were in Germany fighting conscripts recruited from the local population. They were largely kids who were defending their towns and villages. Not spies trying to conceal their identity. And no, most of them wouldn't have been able to speak English. You also completely ignore the fact he was unarmed and was captured, thus rendering him a non combatant. If you actually do any research you would know it is a war crime to kill or otherwise harm such people. "Pursuant to common Article 3(1) of the 1949 Geneva Conventions, persons taking no active part in the hostilities, including members of armed forces who have laid down their arms and those placed hors de combat by sickness, wounds, detention, or any other cause, shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, without any adverse distinction founded on race, colour, religion or faith, sex, birth or wealth, or any other similar criteria. To this end, the following acts are and shall remain prohibited at any time and in any place whatsoever with respect to the above-mentioned persons: (a) violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture." Don't defend clear and obvious war crimes. Even children know it's wrong to fight someone who cannot fight back. How can you sit there and say it's ok to murder someone who is unarmed and begging for their life because they were wearing your side's coat?

12:29 phosphorus is a chemical substance that can be used to fill artillery shells, bombs and rockets. Under the influence of oxygen, the material ignites, the chemical reaction creates an intense heat of 815 degrees Celsius. When used against people, it causes extremely serious injuries. According to international law, it is considered an incendiary weapon, not a chemical one, as it destroys with the heat given off in contact with oxygen and has no toxic effect. The material is delivered wrapped in phosphorus-impregnated felt. White phosphorus has a characteristic garlic smell, phosphorus causes severe burns in contact with human skin. It can burn a person's skin and flesh right down to the bone. The effect of the weapon is made even more terrible by the fact that the burn caused by it is extremely slow to heal, which makes the risk of infection high. If white phosphorus residues are not completely removed from a casualty's body, the remaining material can re-ignite after treatment if it comes into contact with oxygen. It's no coincidence that it's permanently banned
Man the only time ive been let down by one of you guys reactions the whole part at the end when Bible gives his speech and they give Norman his nickname.... just re edit it and add that.... best part of the movie.
How is it possible you edited out the bonding in the tank right before the final battle? Without question the most important moment in the film and you just skip it? Wow.
American tanks were inferior in part because we had to make them portable. We had to transport them clear across the Atlantic Ocean to fight the Germans in North Africa and Europe, and we had to transport them all across the vast Pacific Ocean to fight the Japanese. The need to transport our tanks via ship across huge distances imposed size and weight limits on American tanks, whereas there were no such limitations on German and Russian tanks. They were therefore free to build larger, heavily armored main battle tanks with bigger, more powerful main guns then the USA as a result. The tradeoff was that American tanks were easier to manufacture and could be mass produced, which allowed the U.S. to win tank battles by outnumbering the opponents.
in my many years as WW2 enthusiast I've learned a lot about the differences between Allied and Axis technology, including tanks. But never before have I seen the argument "US tanks must easily fit on a ship". It's such a simple fact, but only now does your comment make me realise this. Thank you

"Ideals are peaceful. History is violent." Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸 🗽 🦅 🎆 🎇 Fun Fact: All of the extras are British military or former military. One scene had 350 extras.

Tank Enthusiast Fact: The second time a genuine Tiger I tank has been used in the production of a WWII film. It features "Tiger 131" from the UK's Bovington Tank Museum, the only fully functioning Tiger I tank in the world. Historical Fact: Despite the dramatic ending, it should be mentioned that the Ordnance Battalion attached to the 2nd Armored Division would have had Fury cleaned, painted inside, patched, repaired, and released in about 48 hours. The Sherman tanks seen in this movie were considered the weakest of tanks at that time period. However, the L55 M1A2 76mm gun mounted on Fury was capable of penetrating the front armor of the Tiger tank at ranges up to 700 meters, more if HVAP ammo was used.
@@popculturallychallenged after watching this you guys really need to react to thefatelectrician video on Lafayette pool. This movie is loosely based on him and his tank
not to be that guy but its actually a 76mm sherman and not a firefly (m4a2e8 not be confused with the m4a3 76w hvss) you can easily tell the firefly apart from the 76 models by looking at their different turrets, while the firefly housed the same, mostly unchanged 75mm turrent from the earlier models (excluding the rear mounted radio), the sherman shown in fury/76 versions have a different turret shape with a more pronounced and elongated rear and a considerably thicker and more retangular looking gun manlet
Tankers were hard core. My dad was 3AD 3nd AR D Company. He commanded Sherman's and a Pershing (his tanks kill of a Tiger in Cologne is documented in The history of the Pershing). You don't have to like these guys, but they saved the world. They paid the price so you don't have to.
When John Bernthal is dragging Norman out of the house's rubble, it seems like he's just being an asshole but he's trying to protect him from the trauma.
One of the things about the US tanks vs. German tanks in WW2 was that it was a quality against quantity war. The American tanks were like the jeeps and trucks, just complicated enough to work and be effective, but not anywhere near the best gear on the field. But they were easily manufactured and easily repaired and parts could be salvaged from them. The German tanks were often works of engineering wonder. They were designed beautifully and were manufactured to demanding standards, but they required skilled technicians to repair and could not be manufactured anywhere near the numbers the Americans. A loss of a german tank was a big deal to their forces. if an american tank broke down, they stripped what they could and got another one much quickly out on the field.
Great reaction guys! If you want a modern day war movie with characters you will fall in love with, may i suggest reacting to, Tears of the Sun. Starring: Bruce Willis

God bless all of the tank crews who went into battle in Europe with our early Shermans knowing that they were outclassed by superior main battle tanks, with little chance to survive such confrontations! God bless the real “War Daddy” and the actual tank crew of Fury, upon which this movie is based. God bless all the courageous veterans with nerves of steel who risked everything and sacrificed so much to protect our countries and preserve the freedoms we enjoy today! God bless all the souls - military and civilian - that we have lost in times of war! God bless America! God bless us all and grant us peace!
IMO. Germany was a vastly more technically advanced military than we were. But! The problem with technology is that repairs can be difficult and time consuming. I believe that the radio systems in German tanks were using FM radios and was more advanced than our tanks. Again. Look at the German battleship Bismarck. It was state of the art for its time. The Brits got lucky dropping a torpedo from a Biplane that jammed her rudder. Germany also had the the first missiles, the V1 and V2 rockets and they also had the first jet fighter in the Me~262.
Thank you. Unfortunately this one got hit by copyright quite heavily so the only option was to remove scenes or have the entire video blocked worldwide. 😢
The things Shia Labouf did to himself to prepare for this movie. And the actors that had to deal with it while it was being filmed. *Shivers* Removed a permanent tooth, gave himself a facial scar and didn't bathe.
The scene with the 4 American tanks advancing on the German position can only be fully enjoyed immersed in an IMAX theater..... Or from the comfort of your own recliner enveloped by your 5.1 home theater system cranked up to YOUR-MAX settings. Feel the vibrations of the tanks rumbling along the field... the sound of bullets whizzing past your head taking out the wall behind your cushioned body... the ricochet sounds as it obliterates your living room decor around you. Ahhh... the single life. Seriously though, this movie shows the true horror of war and the suffering and mental degradation these tank crews lived with. A beautiful movie with A-1 acting and cinematography. Love it!!!
I've seen the movie, missed the premier/chat. This one certainly contrasts high ideals with the ugly horror that is war and the varied human elements. Freedom surely isn't free. Happy Independence Day.
American tanks could not penetrate German Tiger tank frontal armor. America took out the German tigers by having numerous tanks taking on one. The weak part on the Tiger was the rear of the tank. Also American tanks usually put logs on the side and parts or anything they could on the tank to slow the projectile before it hit the main armor. Tiger front only really had two weak points the drivers opening. And if you could fire a shot directly down their barrel detonating a round in the barrel or get a bullet lodged in the barrel so if they fired their gun would explode. Basically an impossible shot at that time.
This movie is epic love it, I lm a big fan of this channel but this edit its too much, you cut so many important scenes to the story line and plot. This was a disappointing reaction for me. Sorry! And im sure im not the only one saying this! But there are some fun-facts about it. Brad Pitts “war daddy” Character is based on a real person. His name was Lafayette G Pool. He is known as America’s Tank ace of world war 2. He managed to destroy 12 tanks, and over 250+ Armored vehicles in under 90 days on the western front. He was awarded with multiple awards like the Silver Star, France’s legion of honour, Distinguished Service Cross (2nd highest award under the Medal of Honor). He is buried in the Sam Houston National Cemetery. The Tiger tank battle near the end of the movie was played by a Tiger 131, captured nearly intact in WW2 and it is the only remaining operational Tiger 1 in the world. The 131 lives at a tank museum in Britain, and rolls out in displays once in a blue moon. It only got hit in the gun mantle so wasn’t that damaged was just jammed hence they abandoned the tiger but normally they use death charges with a pin with a timer so this doesn’t happen they was even a tiger manual with instructions on this. Side note: The reason the tank battle looked like two morons were driving was because they were given specific instructions in which they were only allowed to move the tiger forward and backwards. They couldn't turn or move at an angle due to the old nature of the tank and potential damages. Keep up the good work.
The New guy always gets Hazed. That crew had been in Combat since North Africa in 1942. Battle takes nice guys and turns them hard. They had seen a lot of death in two years, friend and foe alike. It is always evident when you see a war movie that neither one of you served. If you are going to watch a movie like this you need to have a Veteran sitting there with you. You are not really stupid. You just don't know. In this, you are naive. It can't be helped. You didn't like those guys. The Army does not ask you who you want to serve with. You just have to do your job and protect each other. Those of us who served know that time in Service is usually not a thing to be enjoyed. It is a thing to be endured. That said. Those of us who have endured, would not trade the experience. The Military experience changes you. It is unavoidable. It is why Veterans give other Veterans deference. If you are around men who have served, nothing needs to be said. If you are around men who never served, They can not understand. No amount of speaking cane fix that. I could put names on those guys from my own experience. They were good men, dealing with Post Traumatic Stress while continuing to participate in and witness more and more trauma. They can not close their eyes or cover with their blanket to make it go away. They have to do their job and protect each other. Ya the language was rank. That's war and that's military. Try defending Liberty without them. A Soldier is never appreciated or understood until the enemy is at the gates. 17 million illegals have come into America in the past 3 1/2 years. They are not all Latino. There are at least a million Chinese and Russians. and Islamists in the ranks of the Illegal Immigrants. The Enemy is inside our gates. When things get out of hand, don't hide under the blanket. Get behind the grouchy old American Legion guy and He will defend you until he is dead. He knows. He has walk that road before. You don't like him now, ... But you will love him in that day.
They couldn't give up cause the mission said they were all that the army had between the SS battalion and the camp of women and doctors. They held the x road to save lives.
No they couldn't have just gone and hid. They were ordered to hold the crossroads to prevent German forces from advancing! They did accomplish that for the most part.
Great reaction as always from one of my fave reactors 😊 This takes place in one day from morning til night.... As epic as Saving Private Ryan is I like this movie better. 😢
7:20 "He's in something else." He only Lucius Malfoy 😅 I think you did wonderful with the final battle edit. Don't let the comments get you down. We get it. They're brothers forged through the fire of battle and so on. Now we get to the great tank scene.
Yeah no offense, but a lot of this film and the tank crew’s relationship is going over your heads. You’re forgetting… They’re at WAR. And have been for 3 years and could die at any moment. And for 3 years have witnessed and down the worst of humanity. I’m not a vet or solider, but people don’t really grasp just everything solider experience on the front. Yeah they’re not gonna act super friendly, they’re gonna be a bit cold and jaded. Not always, but 9/10, they tend to be NO BULLSHIT kind of people that say and do almost pretty much what they want. The crew is so cold with Norman at the start because they just lost a pretty much BROTHER (Red) right at the start of the film if you remember? So they’re in mourning, but war mourning where you can’t and don’t really have time to grief/cry. War Daddy (Brad Pitt) even tells Norman not to get too close to anybody. They’re treating him cold so he and they don’t get attached to each other in case he dies. Did you guys not pick up on that AT ALL? I don’t know what you were expecting. Saving Private Ryan? Band of Brothers? They’re great no doubt and hopeful, but this, The Pacific, Downfall, Come and See, Generation Kill takes a more objective cold look at war.
give your wife a treat and make her watch pride and prejudice from 2005 the american version , she either thanks you or makes your life hell afterwards because of the high standards she might feel she's entitled NOW !
Also keep saying this Germany had the most advanced planes, tanks, ships, submarines yet they still lost. America needs to remember that tech did not win WWII numbers did and cheap equipment. For instance I still disagree them retiring the A-10 plane. A very cheap and effective plane. Why replace something not broken. If they made a new variant just as cheap and effective then ok.
the fact you didnt understand why the crew was angry about top kissing normans ass and giving him special treatment is because hes a nfg and up to that point has been completely useless. and the crew had been together since africa (3 years) norman was there a day. no clue at all....
Yeah no offense, but SOOO many great scene cut out. I get it if it’s for the patron, pretty based as fxck. Respect the hustle to keep the best moments behind a pay wall, I’m dead serious, especially in these times. If it’s just because you guys didn’t like/understand them? I recommend giving them a second look like the dinner table scene with everyone and why both sides are odds. Both are sympathetic. One just wanting to be normal for a bit, the other not forgetting they’re still in a war and could day at any moment. As well as being jealous he’s speeding time with Norman when he’s been with them longer. Fury is much deeper than first time viewers and (no offense, GENUINELY) normies give it credit for. You’re not the first, so it’s not an issue to me.
fury is, at best, fanfiction of a movie, but, its entertaining, if you think that is historic at all then you're deluded, setting does rise up for... whatever you want to use the word for it
This was not a fun time in human history. 80+ million dead, the most casualties from a war in all of human history. Europe and two Japan cities in rumble (I’m anti-war and Nukes, but had to be done, the emperor wouldn’t surrender and a lot of Japanese fought it he better end and on UA-cam the plan to invade mainland Japan, would’ve cost more lives and stretched the war longer)… A lot of people were not very “hopeful” after the war.
The Tiger Scene is horribly inaccurate. While it's a real Tiger 1 (The only one still running) the Sherman's 75 mm gun could penetrate the frontal armor at 3-500+ meters easily, and the uparmed Firefly version Fury (Which the US did not use, that was a British only model) could penetrate the front armor of a Tiger at nearly 1km. So while it's dramatic and makes for good story telling, it's very inaccurate. The 88 that the Tiger I and Tiger II used and the Panther 75 both had the ability to penetrate the Armor of a Sherman at equitable distances.
I really just wish that the folks making this film had not been so quick to make so many unrealistic choices in depicting the tank combat and a few other things...it is such a great movie in so many ways but could have been so much better. David Ayer is a really good director, but it seems like he should probably not try to deal with historical subjects...considering his work on his other WW2 movie U-571 is even more inaccurate than this film. I fully appreciate that some things have to be different than actual history sometimes, but this movie did a few too many things that are just completely against the real history for seemingly no real reason. There are such great acting performances in this movie, but it could have been so much better if they had gone the realistic route. IMHO
I usually enjoy their reactions but they cut out some of the best moments. Didn’t finish watching their vid. Sorry guys.

A round of Willie P, white Phosphorus, Gramps told me it’s kinda like what’s on the end of a match stick🤨, thanks for sharing 😊👍✌️🇺🇸
Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'😎Keep that Tank-a-Rollin'💥(LOL) Howdy Friends👋and a Happy Fourth to Us-All!🎉This is going to be one Helluva Ride here tonight...👍
God bless all of the tank crews who went into battle in Europe with our early Shermans knowing that they were outclassed by superior main battle tanks, with little chance to survive such confrontations! God bless the real “War Daddy” and the actual tank crew of Fury, upon which this movie is based. God bless all the courageous veterans with nerves of steel who risked everything and sacrificed so much to protect our countries and preserve the freedoms we enjoy today! God bless all the souls - military and civilian - that we have lost in times of war! God bless America! God bless us all and grant us peace!
IMO. Germany was a vastly more technically advanced military than we were. But! The problem with technology is that repairs can be difficult and time consuming. I believe that the radio systems in German tanks were using FM radios and was more advanced than our tanks.
Again. Look at the German battleship Bismarck. It was state of the art for its time. The Brits got lucky dropping a torpedo from a Biplane that jammed her rudder. Germany also had the the first missiles, the V1 and V2 rockets and they also had the first jet fighter in the Me~262.
It is phosphorus it starts burning when exposed to air and does not stop until expended.
Like your reactions but you guys edit out some important scenes
Thank you. Unfortunately this one got hit by copyright quite heavily so the only option was to remove scenes or have the entire video blocked worldwide. 😢
I love this film, a lot of it is very realistic except for the last fight part.
The things Shia Labouf did to himself to prepare for this movie. And the actors that had to deal with it while it was being filmed. *Shivers* Removed a permanent tooth, gave himself a facial scar and didn't bathe.
I keep mentioning jo jo rabbit for a good reaction movie. It's a ww2 film with from a different perspective.
Stay tuned for that one in the next few weeks!
You guys did a lot more editing than what you normally do
Unfortunately this one got hit pretty heavily by copyright issues. 😢
@@popculturallychallenged may I suggest another movie for you to watch?? How about watching casualties of war with Michael J fox and Sean Penn
Instant like! Love you guys :)
Thank you!
YOU SAID KRAUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaahahah nice greeting from germany from BREMEN ....haahah!" But its real Story no Movie Story
The scene with the 4 American tanks advancing on the German position can only be fully enjoyed immersed in an IMAX theater.....
Or from the comfort of your own recliner enveloped by your 5.1 home theater system cranked up to YOUR-MAX settings.
Feel the vibrations of the tanks rumbling along the field... the sound of bullets whizzing past your head taking out the wall behind your cushioned body... the ricochet sounds as it obliterates your living room decor around you.
Ahhh... the single life.
Seriously though, this movie shows the true horror of war and the suffering and mental degradation these tank crews lived with. A beautiful movie with A-1 acting and cinematography.
Love it!!!
I hope Toni was wearing a seat belt with all those jump scares.
Hi, early viewing on Happy Fourth watching patriotic movie. your movie reaction shoud be measured by number of jumps by Toni.
I've seen the movie, missed the premier/chat. This one certainly contrasts high ideals with the ugly horror that is war and the varied human elements. Freedom surely isn't free. Happy Independence Day.
Us old tankers love this movie. 3/11 ACR Workhorse.
American tanks could not penetrate German Tiger tank frontal armor. America took out the German tigers by having numerous tanks taking on one. The weak part on the Tiger was the rear of the tank. Also American tanks usually put logs on the side and parts or anything they could on the tank to slow the projectile before it hit the main armor. Tiger front only really had two weak points the drivers opening. And if you could fire a shot directly down their barrel detonating a round in the barrel or get a bullet lodged in the barrel so if they fired their gun would explode. Basically an impossible shot at that time.
A Pershing could absolutely knock out a Tiger.
A great follow-up to this movie is The Fat Electrician's video on War Daddy!
This movie is epic love it, I lm a big fan of this channel but this edit its too much, you cut so many important scenes to the story line and plot. This was a disappointing reaction for me. Sorry! And im sure im not the only one saying this!
But there are some fun-facts about it. Brad Pitts “war daddy” Character is based on a real person. His name was Lafayette G Pool. He is known as America’s Tank ace of world war 2. He managed to destroy 12 tanks, and over 250+ Armored vehicles in under 90 days on the western front. He was awarded with multiple awards like the Silver Star, France’s legion of honour, Distinguished Service Cross (2nd highest award under the Medal of Honor). He is buried in the Sam Houston National Cemetery.
The Tiger tank battle near the end of the movie was played by a Tiger 131, captured nearly intact in WW2 and it is the only remaining operational Tiger 1 in the world. The 131 lives at a tank museum in Britain, and rolls out in displays once in a blue moon. It only got hit in the gun mantle so wasn’t that damaged was just jammed hence they abandoned the tiger but normally they use death charges with a pin with a timer so this doesn’t happen they was even a tiger manual with instructions on this.
Side note: The reason the tank battle looked like two morons were driving was because they were given specific instructions in which they were only allowed to move the tiger forward and backwards. They couldn't turn or move at an angle due to the old nature of the tank and potential damages. Keep up the good work.
Masterpiece ever. Greatness
The New guy always gets Hazed. That crew had been in Combat since North Africa in 1942. Battle takes nice guys and turns them hard. They had seen a lot of death in two years, friend and foe alike. It is always evident when you see a war movie that neither one of you served. If you are going to watch a movie like this you need to have a Veteran sitting there with you. You are not really stupid. You just don't know. In this, you are naive. It can't be helped. You didn't like those guys. The Army does not ask you who you want to serve with. You just have to do your job and protect each other. Those of us who served know that time in Service is usually not a thing to be enjoyed. It is a thing to be endured. That said. Those of us who have endured, would not trade the experience. The Military experience changes you. It is unavoidable. It is why Veterans give other Veterans deference. If you are around men who have served, nothing needs to be said. If you are around men who never served, They can not understand. No amount of speaking cane fix that. I could put names on those guys from my own experience. They were good men, dealing with Post Traumatic Stress while continuing to participate in and witness more and more trauma. They can not close their eyes or cover with their blanket to make it go away. They have to do their job and protect each other. Ya the language was rank. That's war and that's military. Try defending Liberty without them. A Soldier is never appreciated or understood until the enemy is at the gates. 17 million illegals have come into America in the past 3 1/2 years. They are not all Latino. There are at least a million Chinese and Russians. and Islamists in the ranks of the Illegal Immigrants. The Enemy is inside our gates. When things get out of hand, don't hide under the blanket. Get behind the grouchy old American Legion guy and He will defend you until he is dead. He knows. He has walk that road before. You don't like him now, ... But you will love him in that day.
Torturing Toni again 😂
“Best damn job I ever had”
They couldn't give up cause the mission said they were all that the army had between the SS battalion and the camp of women and doctors. They held the x road to save lives.
No they couldn't have just gone and hid. They were ordered to hold the crossroads to prevent German forces from advancing! They did accomplish that for the most part.
Great reaction as always from one of my fave reactors 😊 This takes place in one day from morning til night.... As epic as Saving Private Ryan is I like this movie better. 😢
Thank you so much 😁
7:20 "He's in something else." He only Lucius Malfoy 😅
I think you did wonderful with the final battle edit. Don't let the comments get you down. We get it. They're brothers forged through the fire of battle and so on. Now we get to the great tank scene.
Que gusto verlos, saludos desde Chile!!
The Fat Electrician has a good video about the real Fury and real War Daddy.
Yeah no offense, but a lot of this film and the tank crew’s relationship is going over your heads. You’re forgetting… They’re at WAR. And have been for 3 years and could die at any moment. And for 3 years have witnessed and down the worst of humanity. I’m not a vet or solider, but people don’t really grasp just everything solider experience on the front. Yeah they’re not gonna act super friendly, they’re gonna be a bit cold and jaded. Not always, but 9/10, they tend to be NO BULLSHIT kind of people that say and do almost pretty much what they want.
The crew is so cold with Norman at the start because they just lost a pretty much BROTHER (Red) right at the start of the film if you remember? So they’re in mourning, but war mourning where you can’t and don’t really have time to grief/cry. War Daddy (Brad Pitt) even tells Norman not to get too close to anybody. They’re treating him cold so he and they don’t get attached to each other in case he dies. Did you guys not pick up on that AT ALL?
I don’t know what you were expecting. Saving Private Ryan? Band of Brothers? They’re great no doubt and hopeful, but this, The Pacific, Downfall, Come and See, Generation Kill takes a more objective cold look at war.
Norman was a FNG, the tank crew didn’t want to get close to him yet. Norman hadn’t earned the respect and time with the crew.
give your wife a treat and make her watch pride and prejudice from 2005 the american version , she either thanks you or makes your life hell afterwards because of the high standards she might feel she's entitled NOW !
Adding to our list. - Toni 🤓
❤❤❤❤❤
you should watch HOLES
I've never heard of it. Added it to our list. - Toni 🤓
They shot willy p. A White Phosphorus round.
Also keep saying this Germany had the most advanced planes, tanks, ships, submarines yet they still lost. America needs to remember that tech did not win WWII numbers did and cheap equipment. For instance I still disagree them retiring the A-10 plane. A very cheap and effective plane. Why replace something not broken. If they made a new variant just as cheap and effective then ok.
The best ships were the Royal Navy..even Hitler knew that.
Horses know how to go back where they came from
the fact you didnt understand why the crew was angry about top kissing normans ass and giving him special treatment is because hes a nfg and up to that point has been completely useless. and the crew had been together since africa (3 years) norman was there a day. no clue at all....
Yeah no offense, but SOOO many great scene cut out. I get it if it’s for the patron, pretty based as fxck. Respect the hustle to keep the best moments behind a pay wall, I’m dead serious, especially in these times. If it’s just because you guys didn’t like/understand them? I recommend giving them a second look like the dinner table scene with everyone and why both sides are odds. Both are sympathetic. One just wanting to be normal for a bit, the other not forgetting they’re still in a war and could day at any moment. As well as being jealous he’s speeding time with Norman when he’s been with them longer. Fury is much deeper than first time viewers and (no offense, GENUINELY) normies give it credit for. You’re not the first, so it’s not an issue to me.
Try to react lone survivor movie
fury is, at best, fanfiction of a movie, but, its entertaining, if you think that is historic at all then you're deluded, setting does rise up for... whatever you want to use the word for it
This was not a fun time in human history. 80+ million dead, the most casualties from a war in all of human history. Europe and two Japan cities in rumble (I’m anti-war and Nukes, but had to be done, the emperor wouldn’t surrender and a lot of Japanese fought it he better end and on UA-cam the plan to invade mainland Japan, would’ve cost more lives and stretched the war longer)… A lot of people were not very “hopeful” after the war.
Highly overrated movie from a historic standpoint. I don't understand why people who know nothing about WW2 love movies that are inaccurate.
The Tiger Scene is horribly inaccurate. While it's a real Tiger 1 (The only one still running) the Sherman's 75 mm gun could penetrate the frontal armor at 3-500+ meters easily, and the uparmed Firefly version Fury (Which the US did not use, that was a British only model) could penetrate the front armor of a Tiger at nearly 1km. So while it's dramatic and makes for good story telling, it's very inaccurate.
The 88 that the Tiger I and Tiger II used and the Panther 75 both had the ability to penetrate the Armor of a Sherman at equitable distances.
Edited out some important bits. Disappointing. Thumbs down.
I really just wish that the folks making this film had not been so quick to make so many unrealistic choices in depicting the tank combat and a few other things...it is such a great movie in so many ways but could have been so much better. David Ayer is a really good director, but it seems like he should probably not try to deal with historical subjects...considering his work on his other WW2 movie U-571 is even more inaccurate than this film. I fully appreciate that some things have to be different than actual history sometimes, but this movie did a few too many things that are just completely against the real history for seemingly no real reason. There are such great acting performances in this movie, but it could have been so much better if they had gone the realistic route. IMHO
This movie is just a silly comic book. Two hours I wish I could take back.
But ya CAHHHN'T, Blanche! Ya CAHHHHN'T take 'em back!
and you are mentally deficient.
