Previous ones Spielberg and Hanks did an amazing job as the producers um bringing them together I’ve stayed away from Twitter I’ve I’ve stayed away from social media as best I can um I haven’t heard anything about this yet uh which is good and I’m because they’ve released two and then they’ve released another

One um so there’s three in there now H I have to I have to watch them and catch up I can’t wait any longer I need to watch it um all I know about it is that it is following um a group of American bombers in World War II and nor that has

Austin Butler fresh from his Elvis um um amazing Elvis job I know that he was talking to um to Tom hson Tom HS said over dinner you need to get you need to you’ve been doing this now for 3 years as Elvis you need to jump back into

Case the scenic route oh the scenic rout oh very funny I like the way it started different to what the others were you are aware this isn’t just about how well your crews make their beds oh boy you are in charge of 35 planes and 350 air crewmen their lives depend on

Order and discipline and your exam yes sir yeah I think I would be of more use to them and you as a squadron commander I just don’t think I was made to sit behind a desk and I expect all officers to get in the game with me so Booky

Wants to be a part of he doesn’t want to be like say pencil Pusher that’s not fair for the people who do that job but he doesn’t want that job he wants to be in with the men fighting and I get that oh what the [ __ ] calm down there

Ran we’ll be hitting the ubo pens on the Vasa River what cannot stress enough the importance of this target the 350th will be in high position with major cevin as lead pilot K 349th will be low with major V’s lead we will be in the low

Low in a total Wing strength of 78 heavy bombers major thanks sir sound heavy expect concentrated Flack from Helms Haven all the way down to brem all the way through they will be tracking you Navigators bombardiers once we’ve wrapped up here be sure to report to HQ for a specialized briefing from that

Initial point it’s a straight 9mile run to the Target wow now this Central pen here will be your mean point of impact immediately after the turn follow the river wow holy [ __ ] your they’re going to be 70 strong Lord they not die like on the thing as I’ve

Always thought as well fair enough you’re a soldier or a marine or or wherever whatever brand like of military on but you’re you’re responsible for your personal safety and those around you an air plane that gets hit and goes down you are done good morning gentlemen for those who don’t know me

I’m father Tesa if anyone needs us thank you Padre we’ll be sure to keep that in mind they don’t want you there but they can understand why you’re there they don’t want to think about it the one that as far from the mind as actually possible settling account it’s

My lucky de two missions with it already I had two wheels down look take Take It Go on please girl for luck that’s M for a proper mate F by Brothers really see you later must be really hard as well because they’re almost same age and one

Already yeah it’s it’s definitely got a a BND of brothers and their Pacific feel to it a little bit different obviously I do like the I like it when you show them they doing the training and 12 machine guns protecting us from every side but the key to our survival was sticking

Together creating a combat box of defensive fire from a tight formation can’t get through important because if we got separated the German Fighters could pick us off one by one how long’s left my God there’s already 40 minutes gone of this first episode are you [ __ ] on me chips wow yeah he’s got

To stick in the window son I just to the side by not in the window come on Kev use your head here you got to look out the window fu absolute balls of [ __ ] steel every corner of the military just you’re just absolutely built different 3 hours before we hit the

Go stick to it business it is it is what it is we still have to go by uh by rules and regulations what what it’s like you been up two missions why didn’t you tell us what it was like you didn’t tell me it was like that yeah we seen it now I

Don’t know what I saw 30 guys gone in the blink I should have been up there with you no you shouldn’t got a long road ahead of us yeah set it is that first episode done okay I don’t want I don’t want to say what’s next uh it’s says what’s next I’m

Not interested in saying that um wow um different what I expected I always thought the first episode might have been a little bit of like a dip you T into it type of s well I guess I guess in the way it was um but I I would have liked if they’d gone

Back and done a little bit of basic training uh I like that because what happens is there is the buildup kind of like a you build up um not the com camaraderie but as a viewer the person watching the sh you get a chance to you see the backgrounds you

See how to help people and you get to kind of you get to like the characters before they get put into like death defying or death death inducing situations shall I say um whereas here it was just kind of thrown in yes we got

To see a few we got to kind of see a few characters but we’ve had you know n we’ve had no backstory on them no nothing um we’ve got the names and who they are uh but apart from seeing buy and Gail you know like having a big crack with a

Lass and saying all right to each other we haven’t really there was no real backstory um which is still fine uh it’s just it is a little bit different than the other ones I mean obviously when when in banded Brothers you got to say go had to go through like the know had

To be like to cor man and and and stuff like that you got to see them going up K obviously I know that’s a completely different sh so I shouldn’t really you know I shouldn’t be kind of putting them together I one of the things I don’t

Want to do is take this I’m trying to take it as a standalone I shouldn’t be comparing them to other to to either the Pacific other banded Brother series it’s not fair uh at all you know considering um I’ve got to try and look at this separately it’s really hard still hard

To do that you know I’m sure sure you agree um I think the action SE sequences are unbelievable the tension that they can bring but of course it was going to be the realism the um that’s Flack when it starts going off [ __ ] man um the level of um

Like hopelessness as well there was a lot of hopelessness there when all of a sudden I I did agree the fact that obviously the not is going to drop bombs and see of the Target and then they just just pulled the mission like that fair enough they lost three planes 10 men in

Each obviously there lost they’ve lost 30 men in the in a crack um but it just kind of showed how quickly how quickly it starts and how quickly they go and yeah buy was told not to tell his men how do you explain it you have to you

Have to see it for yourself kind of what book he said you’ve seen it now you know why didn’t you tell us but you’ve seen it um I thought it was a very very good uh way to start to start a series uh Jesus Christ how much does that kid

Look like his dad Ral uh what’s he called rough law Jude Law son wow isn’t half the double of him um Austin Butler is Austin Butler we didn’t get to see much of I like Barry kean’s American accent but I dislike the way it started it’s been narrated by someone other than Austin

Butler I don’t know why I thought that it was going to be him narrating it but that’s just me uh but you know instead outside so but overall I mean I’m don’t know what I’m overthinking I’m really overthinking I shouldn’t be thinking this much it’s just I should just be

Trying to exp just enjoy it uh for what it is um see I don’t that’s just what’s that got in there return to Hitler um yeah uh so let’s just got that return to Hitler as I’ve paused it when it’s in what’s coming on next so uh overall I

Thought it was amazing I’ve got a feeling this it’s going to absolutely the shit’s going to hit the fun it’s got that like potential to be absolutely mental this and we are going to lose people along the way obviously Just sh there we’ve lost 30 men in the first uh

Episode uh I loved it you have to let us leave leave leave a comment let us know what you thought of it especially the first uh episode uh yeah I will put a link for the banded brothers and stuff if this is your first time at the channel and you go you know

I’ll go back and watch some of the other stuff that he’s done got the banded Brothers in the Pacific as well I’ll also put a subscribe button up there and yeah I’ll see you all very very soon for episode two
