Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 жов 2024
- Michael Bay may be commonly known for producing borderline unwatchable Transformers movies but did you know in 2001 he directed a borderline unwatchable Pearl Harbor film with Ben Affleck? So in preparation for Roland Emmerich's Midway we revisit and review Pearl Harbor in all its glory. The action scenes, the love triangles, the golden skin and the way it's trying very hard to be James Cameron's Titanic. Caravan Of Garbage Thanks for watching.

#PearlHarbor #MichaelBay #Midway
“No one can deny that they made this movie.” Probably the truest positive statement I can think of about Pearl Harbor
Its So deep im gonna report a sinkhole
Of all the movies about World War II, this is certainly one of them.
Don’t listen to those who dismiss this movie. It is a movie.
i love it whenever Mason says something so pointless with such enthusiasm
They never made this movie! Boom! I got them again!
"This movie is not without its troubles - for one, everyone hates it" I love this channel
Plum Tree could have been better.
@@LloydWaldo not possible
It's a bit too long it's very good.
My son introduced me to caravan of garbage. I can't get enough. I love these guys
Jerry Hilzim your son was raised well
@@franciscoperalta6236 thank you. Lol. Their comedic chemistry is hilarious. I love the video game stuff. 🤣
Me too 😆🤘
@@jerryhilzim
The video game ones are the best cuz they both suck at gaming but I've have to say, The Planet of the Apes Caravan of Garbage is my favorite. I'll never forget sitting at my work desk in tears from laughter. A close second is anything mob boss or just mob related.
@@magnamic5614 that one was great they were awful at it
"Tora, Tora, Tora" is a much better attempt to show what happened during Pearl Harbor. It used real planes from the period and does a great job showcasing the lead up to it. However, it lacks Josh Hartnet, so....
Plus the Taylor and Welch scene in Tora, Tora, Tora is amazing.
Tora Tora Tora is actually 99% accurate and the buildup to the battle is really nice
Or the Clint Eastwood ones.
al112v5 Iwo Jima is not really a movie about Pearl Harbor, but at least attempts to tell the story, like Tora Tora Tora, from both sides, which Bay’s Pearl Harbor failed to do
Tora Tora Tora - the Japanese section is good, the American stuff is badly directed.
This film somehow offended American and Japanese veterans
It should offend everyone.
@@mikespearwood3914 the love story yes....the action scenes actually gave birth to the object tracking shots i believe....and those shots pretty much some up the 2000s.....fast and furious....triple x.....resident evil.....and lets not forget it won a oscar!!!!......for sound effects hahah
@@saintniccage2818 I bet the sound Coordinator and his/her team were estatic though 😂😂.
@@EL-ISS " Academy awards are like Pulitzer prizes, No one remembers what you got it for....just that you got one"......perry white, superman returns
My grandfather never forgave the Japanese for Pearl Harbor until I told him that it was the Americans that made that movie.
When Rafe ( Ben Affleck ) crashes his plane into the sea during the dogfight, it's daytime. When he comes to the surface of the water, it's night time, lol.
Not only did Japan NOT target civilians in Pearl Harbor, the ONE Japanese pilot who ever killed anyone on the mainland US was so wracked with guilt that he eventually visited the town the people were from, donated a family heirloom to the town (which is still on display at the local library), was made an honorary citizen of the town, and some of his ashes were scattered there. After his death, his diary was found to contain a passage that read “If we knew each other. If we understood each other as a friend, this foolish war would never have happened. I sincerely hope that a day would come where everyone could overcome their differences through talking and not fighting”
Wow that's like a extra level of f*ck you in this movie then huh
Making up warcrimes is pretty silly when the Imperial Japanese Military committed actual war crimes elsewhere.
@@anenemystand5582 Right? Actual history furnishes enough material that making stuff up seems both misguided and kind of insulting.
Which is kind of weird when you think about it, the government of WW2 japan was against the geneva convention and did a shitload of warcrime elsewhere.
They did some truly, incredibly horrific things in China and other places, though
I was living in Hawaii when they made this movie and we watched them shoot the bombing scenes from other side of the harbor. It was better than the movie.
In a parallel universe, your home movie footage of all that now has 100M views on YT. :D
Not watching them shoot the bombing scenes would also have been better than the movie.
"How about 'Pearl Harbor' what if we won though?" I would absolutely 100% believe Michael Bay said that lmao
But they didn’t win. We were actually shown this movie in class and our history teacher (who’s from france, not america) explained that it’s wasn’t a victory, it was only shown kindasorta that way because that attack had given its hope and motivation back to the american army, so it was a ‘positive’ (I mean it’s still war…) thing. That’s what was meant to be portrayed.
*it wasn’t
Out of all the Micheal Bay movies...
Pearl Harbour is definitely one of them
BattleUp Saber that’s debatable
😆😂
Well, I can't deny that.
@@kuldimanas It's undeniably undeniable
You nailed him mate 👍
"Pearl Harbor...but if we won"
'Ehhh, thats a bridge too far.'
I see what you did there.
Please review more war movies.
History buffs reviews History movies,I suggest checking him out
Mason always has the best lines.
Half-Life-Lore that’s like asking if Pepsi is okay instead
@@johnwerner69 What the fuck are you on to?? i suggest him checking that channel out,if he's interested....
I hope they keep ripping apart Michael Bay Movies
Mr. Sunday Movies is the only person I would wake up in the middle of sleeping at 6:30 in the morning to watch. Love Mason and James, they make my day.
Fun fact: Ben Affleck wasn't actually in ww2
You take that back!
Prove it. You weren’t there...
He’s a real American Hero
But he was veteran in the Napoleonic Wars though.
Wrong
It's just Titanic but with different pants.
Adam Gougeon but at a run time of over 3 hours you better bring a big sandwich
Titanic is great, pearl harbor is not.
MovieAce is it?
Should of been the film's tagline.
@@johnwerner69 No, it is NOT. They're basically the same movie: Ridiculously overwrought melodramas full of massive historical inaccuracies and the the slanderous character assassination of real historical people.
In Titanic the scenes of everyone dying aren't presented as exciting action scenes.
Idk the guy that hit the roters are pretty epic
Uh, yes they are
Titanic deaths were portrayed differently but it also was not a war movie.
@@BaggyMcPiper In what way? I recall them being intensely tragic.
I don't know, Titanic is also full of bullshit history and the the slanderous character assassination of real historical people.....
This movie taught me that if you yell at someone "JUST GET ME TO A PLANE!" they will, in fact, get you to a plane.
@fake channel or horses, according to True Lies
I've seen this movie four times. My high school band teacher felt that watching this was apparently the best way to honor Pearl Harbor every year.
A day that will live on in symphony? Took me a couple years to think of that one
@@trustedinvalid1 thank you so much. It was worth the wait.
A true patriot 😅
There’s a genuinely great fan edit of Pearl Harbour (called Strength and Honor edition). It cuts out the love triangle subplot amongst other things, reducing the running time by 55 minutes
It’s professionally done and is miles better than the standard cut.
That shot of the guys' hands as they drowned really scared me as a kid, and I always remembered it as a shot from Titanic.
There are some good parts of the movie. Unfortunately the rest of it sucked.
The version i saw of this film, that line "world war 2 just started" was changed to "world war 2 just hit us".
Golden Graham TV please tell us it was with bad ADR.
Lloyd nope that’s the directors cut that was released as part of Buena Vista’s Vista Series.
Watched this film in middle school as part of my history class, and looking back, Ben Affleck’s character is legitimately a terrible person. He breaks the news to his girlfriend that he volunteered to go to England to fight the night before he ships out before telling her that her wishes didn’t matter in this supposedly serious relationship. Then once he gets shot down and his girlfriend moves on and finds happiness with his friend, he returns and beats the snot out of Kevin Hartnett’s character for “stealing his girl”. Like, dude, you chose to go and risk your life elsewhere, even saying that your girlfriend’s wishes didn’t matter, and now you’re back and you have the audacity to be mad when she moves on? Also, there’s that little detail of him withholding the news of the pregnancy from Kevin Hartnett’s character until he’s about to die. I can’t imagine what his last thoughts must’ve been. “My kid that I’ll never meet will grow up with this phenomenal a-hole as their father. I wish he really had died in that plane crash.”
This makes me want a podcast episode on World War 2 or just War movies in general
That’d be awesome(;
The keano/keayes rating is going to be No-rmamdy/Yay-mandy.
If your in the mood for good WW2 podcasts. Hardcore History is awesome. But I'd also love to hear these fools discuss WW2 for 2 or 3 hours.
Dad?
Friendly fire is a good one, find it wherever you consume podcasts
All I know about this film is that one song in Team America about how Pearl Harbor isn’t a good movie
"I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school,
He was terrible in that film.
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a bigger part,
He's way better then Ben Affleck.
And now all I can think about is your smile,
And that shity movie too,
Pearl Harbour sucked and I miss you."
Damn, I can't believe they turned a call of duty level into a real war
@@keithriley6597 Dude, might be time to double the Seroquel...
@@keithriley6597 welcome to watchmojo today we are counting down the top ten things you didn't know about ww2 in the Pacific: nr 1 pearl harbour never happened
@@keithriley6597 on god
@@keithriley6597 now I'm not sure if you're kidding or not, haha. But you got it the other way around: the romance was real, the bombing was made up (they say this in the video, trivia about the hospital).
I heard they're making the airport from MW2
I feel like "Saving Private Ryan" might have served as some inspiration for the funding; it came out in 1998. The movies are nothing alike in tone, but that's because Michael Bay can't take anything seriously. I wouldn't mind seeing a Spielbergian version of Pearl Harbor.
that certainly could be a possibility, since Spielberg is basically a godfather to Michael Bay lol
Thought it's not of Pearl Harbour, have you seen Spielberg's, "Empire of the Sun"? He also did the rather peculiar movie, "1941".
I learned today that Bay actually turned down the offer to direct Saving Private Ryan. So... a Michael Bay Private Ryan almost happened.
@@mapesdhs597 saw Empire of the Sun just this year, twice. This phrase is said a lot, but that movie is too underrated for how good it is.
James reaction to Mason saying he has never seen Titanic is so genuine and real that I 100% believe this is the first time Mason has mentioned it
"I don't believe in guilty pleasures"
Tell that Netflix's Death Note and my boundless sense of shame
I don't believe in guilty pleasures
Another Netflix death note fan
Be proud my friend
wow. that is a veeeeeeeeerrrry guilty pleasure.
im surprised people actually liked that movie. i remember the good ol' days when everyone shat on it for how lazy and bad the movie was, but hey, call me surprised
*Quietly hides my shrine to Tommy Wiseau*
He made the attack look so good you can almost cheer for the Japanese. It's ridiculous 😂
It's hella hype, hahaha
Reminds me of the best review of Peral Harbour. "So bad, I was rooting for the Japs"
My niece's fiancee has a portrait tattoo of Marlon Brando--as Vito Corleone--on his left arm but has never seen a single scene of a Godfather film...nor has he read the book. He is _proud_ of this for some reason that I do not get. WTF?
Lol Weird place to air this grievance, but I guess you needed to get it out.
@@damnthebran LOUD NOISES!!!
when you love a meme but don't care
@@damnthebran I know it probably isn't relevant(ok, it _definitely_ isn't relevant), but it just bugs me so bad! :)
@@munstrumridcully The randomness of the comment and the actual story made me laugh, but I can see why it bugs you.
"Good enough.... put some flags on it!" Michael Bay's directing motto.
You should maybe do some Caravan of Garbage episodes on classic war films.
Films like Bridge over the River Kwai, Battle of Britain, Great Escape, Where Eagles Dare and my personal favourite A Bridge Too Far
And "The Longest Day"; if you watch the opening sequence and baring in mind there was no CGI & suchlike back then, what they achieved was quite remarkable (and the cast is mind blowing, it has everyone famous from that time):
ua-cam.com/video/cpWYxVM80Mw/v-deo.html
Btw, for a revealing perspective on the Normandy invasion, read the book, "D DAY Through German Eyes", by Holger Eckhertz:
www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1539586391/
Also re movies, there's "Patton" (which won 7 Oscars), "Kelly's Heroes", "Battle of the Bulge", "The Guns of Navarone", "Ice Cold In Alex", "Cross of Iron", "Das Boat" (1981), "Stalingrad", and so many others.
Hmm, though not a factual movie as such, "White Tiger" is intriguing, more a take on the notion of war itself (ie. war as a kind of evil which seeks to sustain itself), though note there's a weirdly slow section just before the final ending:
www.imdb.com/title/tt2318405/
Reminds me of the film, "Deathwatch" (2002), set in the WW1 trenches, but it's a somewhat more conventional film (I found "White Tiger" more interesting):
www.imdb.com/title/tt0286306/
And I guess when it comes to the sheer horror of war, it's impossible not to mention, "Come and See", depicting events in Belarus:
ua-cam.com/video/CmxqaGIS_qw/v-deo.html
Oddly enough btw, "A Bridge Too Far" would be at the top of my list too, probably alongside, "Patton".
I think, "The Keep" (1983) is also good, but I can't recall much about it now.
On the lighter side, there's, "Hannibal Brooks" (1969): www.imdb.com/title/tt0064403/
Oh, and though not WW2, I highly recommend, "The Bedford Incident" (1965), a Cold War submarine tale, with Sidney Poitier in one of his best roles.
Of course some of the above are not exactly an easy fit for the generally comedic tone of this channel series, but hey, war is hell. :}
Ugh this movie was cringe. I was in 6th grade when this came out and I even knew Micheal Bay was blatantly copying Titanic then 😂
Momma Mia Same! I remember being in 6th grade and seeing Pearl Harbor with my friends. We laughed our asses off the whole time because we knew it was a total rip off of Titanic (a much better film).
Before you actually said it aloud... I was thinking I would watch only the 40 minute battle sequence. I am that creep sir. Stay out of my head please. Hahaha
I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark
When he made Pearl Harbor
Whaaa wuuuud ya duoooo
Got em
I missed you than the movie missed the point and that's an awful lot, girl.
I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school
He was terrible in that film
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a better part
He's way better than Ben Affleck
Saw this at the cinema.. Walked in one hour late, stayed for one hour to see the attack, walked out an hour early. No regrets.
Was working in Hollywood at this point in time and the word was Bay was CONVINCED he wasn't just going to get Best Picture/Director noms but he felt he was a great bet to win. When it only got three technical noms, the new word was he was not disappointed but furious. Because of COURSE he was.
I've never watched this movie. This is honestly the first time I heard there is so much after the attack. I just assumed the whole movie was just the attack.
For 9 years straight after this movie came out, my dad would make us watch the bombing scene for Christmas. Not the movie itself, just the bombing scene....on Christmas eve.
My dad is friends with Daniel Martinez. Martinez told me that he spent the entire shoot telling Bay, "That's not what happened," and Bay completely ignored him.
There's also a story that Bay and Affleck had personal drivers on-call 24 hours a day while they were in Hawai'i. At the end, Affleck gave his driver a gift of 50,000 USD. Bay gave his driver two Pearl Harbor hats.
The point is: movies aren't the only thing that're bad about Michael Bay.
Hey James, you missed a major fact...
The film was actually named after David Harbours grandmother
LOL
"You need one massive uggo in there"
(Cuts to Ewen Bremner)
Brutal.
I got an ad for Midway halfway through and I couldn't stop laughing
Same here.
"You've seen the movie. Now, you can play the game based on the Academy Award-winning motion picture!"
Man I should've said "I got an ad for Midway Midway through..." what a missed opportunity
As a 35 year old, Pearl Harbor is the first movie I REMEMBER being let down by. Not the first movie to let me down per say, but the first one that was really etched in my brain. The American Godzilla, The Phantom, The Shadow. Those didn’t really hit me as disappointments until well after watching them. But Pearl Harbor? I remember walking out of the theater, getting in the family car with my friend Robert, and saying, “I hated it. It should have ended with the Pearl Harbor attack.”
Saw this movie in the theatre. When Kate wrote the F on homeboy's forehead, I busted out laughing and yelled, "F for fucked!"
My grandfather, a veteran, brought me to see this movie when I was a kid. I remember him being incredibly disappointed when we left the theater.
Fun fact about Titanic: every single shot in that movie is of a scale replica. I believe it was built to 1/6 the size of the actual Titanic. So every shot of it, the cap sizing and such, is all practical FX, the only special FX in Titanic is the distant shots of crowds of people on the deck of the ship as it's sinking. The giant wave caused by the ship crashing into the water, also part of the practical FX. James Cameron really pushed the industry to make that film in the way that he did, and no one has made a movie with practical FX to that degree since.
Lol, even historians are saying Michael Bay ruined their childhood!
My main problem with including the Doolittle Raid at the end of the movie is that is a story worth a movie on it's own. It is a massive waste of potential.
eddie murphy or rdj dr doolittle raid?
Am i the only person who finds every Michael Bay film the most cynical possible statement on mass media? Like Andy Warhol paintings but with zero irony.
Lmao
It is alot of him holding a mirror up to society. Ive seen some very interesting breakdowns of his film making. Same with Nic Cage's acting in pure surrealism, while every other actor goes for realism.
@@williamblackfyre4866 I was going to say "What? Michael Bay is the Nic Cage of directors!!!" But even while I was typing it I started to see how you're exactly right. Crazy, yes. Maverick, yes. Unique, yes. For me the difference is no matter how crazy Nic Cage is in a film I never say what he's doing is awful. With Bay on the other hand I say it a lot but still end up watching his films multiple times.That last Mark Whalberg transformer film defies description apart from "bonkers mess" and yet I've seen it 4 times. When I'm watching his films my intellect is telling me there's something terribly awfully wrong but the rest of me is unable to look away. All creativity is still an art form whether it's good or bad.
@@GregBreden that also perfectly describes the Tim Burton Planet of the Apes movie. It is so stupid, so bonkers, and so dedicated to what it is doing, that even though my dad and I knew it was terrible, we couldn't change the channel because of how raptuorously enveloping the stupidity of what we were watching actually was.
@@FlyingFocs Ha ha, I'm with you on that one. Loved the chimp doing the thumbs up, I sprayed my drink out of my mouth at that point.
"No one can deny that they... made this movie"!! Excellent
During the attack scene, for a brief moment we see the USS Nevada making a run for it. A nice detail in a movie that's infamous for it's innacuracies.
Ben Affleck's commentary for this shitshow is one of the best thing Ben Affleck has ever done

@@raam726 holy shit you're right.....my bad,always get those two movies wrong. Both of them directed by Michael Bay,both of them starring Affleck and both of them being dogshit. Thanks for the correction
Hamza Orakzai no problem
@@hamzaorakzai3490 Someone taking a simple correction in stride. That's a rarity on the internet and I salute you for it.
I don't know if I'm proud or annoyed that you did a whole Pearl Harbour video without a single Team America: World Police reference.
I was a little kid when I saw this movie and I loved it. The soundtrack was amazing.
OMG Thin Red Line is amazing and the score by Hans Zimmer is beautiful.
I'm so glad James finally came around to this move.
Yes I am drunk right now, but Hans Zimmer's scores are always beautiful.
Linda Roy I am sober and I agree. The deluxe/extended/whatever version of Pearl Harbor is one of my all-time favorites to be honest.
It was surprising to find out that the Japanese didn't attack the hospital, given they attacked unprovoked and all their other war crimes from that time, like the Rape of Nanking, it's weird to find out they drew a line somewhere
I think Empire of the Sun is almost perfect interpretation on how war played out and affected different people. It captures so many emotions that Pearl Harbour looks just grey and plain
Oh my god James I can’t believe you haven’t seen TI-
Oh
I got type 2 diabetes from watching this film.... Thanks, Michael Bay...
Dan Edwards 😂😂
I cannot tell you how happy I was when I saw the title to this video. Also....being that Midway is a Roland Emmerich film.... I look forward to the eventual caravan of Garbage for Midway
I didn't even realize it was an Emmerich film until this video. I guess that is the only good thing about Midway is we are going to eventually get a Caravan of Garbage about it
@@jessrl8025 yeah I mean.... I feel like his track record lends to the idea that it's gonna suuuuuuuuuuuuck
Knowing James and Maso, they might just choose an old Midway video game and be like, "We didn't want to miss the opportunity. SO DEAL WITH IT!"
Midway was such a piece of shit. I sat through about 30 minutes and said forget it. Half of the financing for Midway came from China, and it was obvious.
That scene where Josh Hartnett was dying and giving his last words to Ben Affleck to go on ... it was...
... basically a representation acting of their career.
"America would say, especially: 'It did not go well.'" That's how my history teacher opened up the lesson as a matter of fact.
Hell yeah I also agree you should never feel guilty about doing something you enjoy when you’re not hurting anyone. Plus when you’re open about the things you love it’s much easier to find people who like the same stuff
But how much of the battle scene is taken from "Tora! Tora! Tora!" ?
If he removed the love story, it's actually pretty solid
If they removed the love story and spent the time and money from those parts on making sure the rest was somewhat historically accurate instead...then madman Bay might have actually made a genuinely good more for once. But instead, we got a garbage "Titanic meets Saving Private Ryan" mashup that nobody wanted or needed lol
Funnily enough, I feel like this perfectly applies to Titanic as well.
Saw this in the theatre and it felt 10,000 hours long.
I saw the bit with midway at the start of the video and immediately tried to hit the skip ad button out of reflex
He is a leather bound book in human form 😂
"This is an attempt at Oscar bait by a man who doesn't know how that works." Totally killed it, man! That is why I am putting this down as one of the Top Ten Rules for any aspiring filmmakers out there. Make your film from your heart and mind, your spirit and soul - not for fame, fortune or awards. Also, if you HAVE to make a movie about Pearl Harbor, please DON'T make it a love story, let alone a crappy one like the actual movie titled PEARL HARBOR had.
This movie wants to think it’s one of the big 1950/60’s David Lean style blockbusters, but falls well short. Imagine it’s a case of the people behind it thinking how could they combine Titanic and Saving Private Ryan into one movie, and this is the result
"I miss you like Michael Bay missed the mark..."🎼
shut up
How long do you think before someone tries doing this formula with 9/11?
remember me kind of did that
I worked in a cinema when this film came out it was the only film that had a screening that 0 people turned up for.
" one of the things that really bother me about world war two which is that-
Mr Clean magic eraser powers through messes!" Funny ad placement
I've done the "I'm going to watch the 40-minute battle sequence from Pearl Harbor today" thing before, I can confirm, I am a creep.
I can't wait for the extended version of this for 2 reasons. I get to hear all of this again with some bonus stuff. And 2 I get to hear The Weekly Planet rip into Pearl Harbor!
I'm pretty sure The Death Of Stalin was better and slightly more accurate too
As an American, who grew up in American public schools, everytime you learn about WWII in school your middle aged male history teacher will ALWAYS show parts of this movie😂without a doubt. And you do feel sappy during the actual Pearl Harbor scene but at the mention of the film otherwise it’s a groan.
Oh my god Mason! I can't believe you didn't see Titan... oh nevermind.
fuck off
Transformers is "a bunch of jagged metal rolling on top of each other" is the most apt description I have ever heard for a Transformers movie without being vulgar
You missed Clint Eastwoods Sons of Iwo Jima.
It's so bad that they actually showed Affleck's character, a fully commissioned USAAF officer flying with Eagle Squadron in the Battle of Britain! lol
As soon as this video started i couldn't help but keep remembering how terrible & cheesy this film was. Then at about the 12 minute mark, James mentioned the Transformers movies & all of a sudden i thought to myself: "y'know - Pearl Harbor isn't really all that bad."
'Outdoor meetings are considered uncivilized in Japan'.
I cannot speak for Japanese culture, but Kurosawa seems to have meetings outside in MANY of his best films. Throne of Blood and Ran to name a pair.
Hard to know who's worse, Michael Bay or Roland Emmerich? I could feel my brain cells dying during Independence Day, they haven't grown back. Dunkirk (2017) by Christopher Nolan is quite good.
definitely Michael
At least michael bay tries because he likes the military (13 hours) but i get the feeling emerich is going to make yet another disaster film but just pearl harbor
I can't believe I'm saying this but Michael Bay probably has more talent, it's just that talent is filtered through his garbage sensibilities.
@@Ian-oe9wp Roland Emmerich. He bores me.
@@jamstonjulian6947 I can't decide, garbage sensibilities vs garbage mentality! :)
Published 4 years ago to YT but I just found it today and it's just as funny as it was 4 years ago. If you haven't seen it yet - it's new to you! 😎👍
Forced to watch this film repeatedly in history class a long time ago.....I can confirm it is a guilty pleasure but I've not watched in some time
Why would they show a film in History class that is not very accurate?
When your teacher doesn't show up to class due to illness so they wheel in the old clunky TV with a selection of Ben hurr, A Knights Tale(awesome) Pearl Harbour, and downfall
@@ciarandodrill3562 Ha ha I see.
This is like the equivalent of a physics teacher putting on Star Wars when he's hung over.
The Latin teacher at my high school was notorious for repeatedly showing the movies Shrek and Remember the Titans in his classes. I don’t think I need to specify this but just in case anyone’s wondering: the movies were not in Latin.
I was like 13 when this came out so I enjoyed the scenes during the attack, explosions and whatnot. I have no desire to rewatch this movie though. Even back then I could tell the love story was ham fisted as hell.
I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark when he made Pearl Harbor.
I remember back in high school, where we were planning on watching the film for a "Pearl Harbor" project but ended up skipping 2 HOURS just to get to the battle scene!!!
This was definitely beyond a shadow of a doubt one of the movies of all times...it had a beginning, and an end, and lots of footage in between. I have never in my life have seen something like this and NOT be able to think " that was definitely alot of things put onto film I got to watch at a later time " ... best recorded events put on film to watch at a later time in history! ..thanks guys !!!
Im not saying this at the video creators, but i just want to make it clear the Japanese pulled off of some targets around pearl out of fear of affecting civilians. The fuel depot not being successfully destroyed is thought to be part of that. They kinda gave it a token shot but didnt try again mostly due to time constraints but pilots later said they were not aware that newer homes had been built quite so close to the fuel depot. May have been family barracks, but the point is there was discretion exercised by the Japanese in those earliest stages of the engagement. People tend to forget that it was desperation that changed that. The hope with pearl was that we would be less offended because civilians were deliberately avoided and america would make a quick peace to avoid the war. It was after this that losses mount and fuel runs short and the Japanese military reacted like too many militaries in a similar spot: badly. Horrifically badly. But yeah the first strike was meant to be sharp but not an act of butchery on civilian areas.
I wouldn’t mind them reviewing Big Red One, that’s a rough war film to watch.
Americans never lose.
They just postpone their victorys
Yo guys,I recommend you to watch Tora Tora Tora,bassicly the movie that represents what truly happened in 1941 and is very accurate and also Waterloo,these two are one of the best historic movies ever.
AKA How not to make a war movie.
The problem that Pearl Harbor has that it emulated from Titanic was that when it was focusing on the historical material it's based on, it was actually pretty damn good, but it often got sidetracked by the romance plot and it takes priority over the much more interesting historical context of the film.
I loved Titanic because I've been obsessed with the ship since I was 6. I didn't care all that much about the romance.
