If it's as cool as BoB, it should rock!

'specially if it has vintage Corsairs . . .

I am stoked on this. I think BoB is one of the best peices of cinematic work I have seen (cable or not!). pearl harbor, Iwo Jima, Wake Island, Midway, Guadacanal....

And then for 2007 we will have the North African theatre? ;D

HBO it is. It appears to be exactly the crew responsible for BoB. I would really like if they started off with Pearl Harbor. Show M. Bay how it really should be.

*I would really like if they started off with Pearl Harbor. *Show M. Bay how it really should be.

I still think Tora! Tora! Tora! did a better job of capturing the events of Pearl Harbor than the M. Bay movie. Any word on the cast for this new miniseries? :D
