Biggest invasion in the history of invasions - I wonder if it will even get a footnote in the news today?

If Hollywood can make a three hour movie about Pearl Harbor you would think it could come up with some good stories from that conflict...to "refresh" our collective minds of that struggle. Maybe then we (as American's) will start to understand why Russia is pissed off we want to extend NATO up to their front porch.

hollywood did make a 3 hour movie about the nazi invasion - it was called 'enemy at the gates' very good movie btw, and i'm not defending pearl harbor or the fact that this point won't get much of a mention, just pointing something out:)

Too bad Enemy at the Gates was ruined by a love story. It was a perfectly good war movie that had to be Hollywoodized and thus ruined.

Oh wait Pearl Harbor was the same fvcking way.

Was enemy at the gates a crappy love story with an hour of kick-ass action (like Pearl) or was it just a crappy love story with crappy action?
