Ok - not "really" a movie, but just heard of this from a buddy. Band of Brothers , to me, is the greatest war flick ever and really a life changing experience. As the son of a marine, I grew up knowing about Iwo Jima and WWII Island hopping, I dont think anyone ever did the war in the Pacific justice. IMHO, both of Eastwoods (Flags of our Fathers and Letters from Iwo) fell way short. Ok movies, but didnt go far enough. there is some magic or special spirit in being a Marine. I want to see that on film. So I just heard Spielberg and Hanks are doing a a HBO miniseries on the Pacific, about marines. Starts in March, cant wait to see this. I've got high hopes!
