It's weird, some of the same actors in Red Tails were in the HBO version 20 years earlier playing different characters.
The HBO version is a lot better except in one key area, and that's production values. The special effects in Red Tails for the dogfights are as good as anything you'd expect from something produced by George Lucas, while the HBO version regrettably uses actual black and white nosecam footage from WW2 dogfights and it is pretty immersion breaking, almost like you're watching a workprint with placeholder footage. Everything else about it was better though.
Red Tails seemed to be trying for a really old school classic Hollywood simple tone, but it didn't really get there IMO.
it was really brave of George to make the first movie with an all black cast
his wife is black
He should have pulled up
>straight to video B movie actor guy
>le 1x1=2 guy
So much potential to have a band of brothas style movie on the tuskegees. If you’ve ever had the good fortune of meeting on of them they are incredible speakers with that old school fighter pilot attitude (I’ve met 4 of them in my life)
Instead Lucas made some cgi shitfest that looked like a 2000era Lucas arts flight sim with dialog and plot as bad as a cheesy video game. Really insulting to the real people and true story
The problem is even if you wanted to use practical effects for the planes you can’t, there’s not enough surviving flyable mustangs.
True, but the CGI was terrible. You can fly old prop planes repainted or touched up with CG to make them look somewhat believable. Red tails looked like it was made by the phantom menace production team.
Dude what, the CGI was the best part. It looked really good.
>Instead Lucas made
Lucas didn't direct this.
This scene seems kinda dumb and its all I remember
>enter room years ago as friend is watching it
>see me262 firing 30mm cannons at black pilot hitting him like a dozen times
>instead of black pilot becoming a red mist and the p51 becoming a Gruyère cheese he looks like he has been hit by nerf foam bullets and continues flying and take down two other german planes
Didn't watch beyond that but I assume that movie is humongous shit
262s did go down pretty easily because by 45 the Germans had few pilots left that could actually fly let alone a new jet fighter. They also had severe problems with reliability and maintence so even in the air they had a bug chance of underperforming or just breaking down. Once the secret was out for the new German fighter seasoned pilot in a mustang could outfly/out turn and trap the 262s with squad tactics and overcome the significant advantages it had.
Those 30mm cannons were no joke though, a single well placed shot would wreck an aircraft
I don't care how paper mache the me262 were, if you get hit by a dozen lead golf ball sized bullets at the speed of sound you don't survive, period. I don't care how much melanin you have
Those cannons could rip, I think the mosquito had a 57mm that could take out small ships. The me262 had at least 4 if I can recall correctly.
These are the rounds
Turns out if you have enough melanin these barely tickle when you get hit by them
Terrence is busy creating new hydrogen technologies in Uganda
I've never heard about this movie except of being mentioned in RLM videos.
Why was it bad?
Next time baby
They can get a sequel when they figure out 30 millimeter isn't the same as .30 caliber and that people can't tank explosive mine shells.
You can if you're black
We wuz bullet proof an doin spins n' sheit in tha air, whitey!
What up, tho?
