doyler Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1458 Posted October 21, 2014 Saw the local previews last night.Will be here locally in a week. The visual over all was sureal to me.The colors are very vivid.As Lee stated about the tracers.The are just popping off the screen I have heard some "negative vibes" from a few but to me the they negative types are not seeing the overall picture.The huge effort that went into something like this is beyond scope.The attention to detail is uncomaparable to date in my uneducated opinion. These people critisize comat scences about not being real.....Well only real combat is real.Film makers have to make it as they best they can.The foort here from what I have seen on the previews is outstanding.To me there isnt a whole lot of the industry doing films on things 70 years ago.At least there is still intrest and everyone involved have done a huge and outstanding job.

doyler Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1459 Posted October 21, 2014 The dead German lying in the road was also done in the film, "Cross of Iron," and probably based on the original photo posted above... I agree. I have seen that photo off and on over the years in various publications(yes kids way before the net ) I have a smashed SS belt buckle from a 17th Airborne vet who picked it off a frozen road some where in Belgium.He never would elaborate on the whole story.

willysmb44 Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1460 Posted October 21, 2014 So many detail photos of the extras that you just couldn't see in the finished film. That said, there sure are a lot of German uniform parts, weapons and equipment being worn in these photos, far more than I recall seeing in period photos for more than just a photo op. Front line vets I've talked to have often told me that they worried about being caught by Germans if they had captured German stuff on them.

sgtdorango Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1461 Posted October 21, 2014 Keep in mind this is the very end of the war and i would imagine GIs were getting more comfortable wearing captured stuff as they entered germany and it was becoming clear the germans were just about kaput!.......mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kammo-man Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share #1463 Posted October 21, 2014 Willis we have already addressed that subject many times theres tons of pictures of German gear being worn. Just cuz you dont see it in one pass of the movie does not meant we did not put it in to maybe seen in a take. As Rob L said for the 100% put in only 15% makes the screen. owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fstop61 Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1465 Posted October 21, 2014 Owen, again, you did a top-notch job! If I may ask, what's next? and how do you top your work on Fury? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just cuz you dont see it in one pass of the movie does not meant we did not put it in to maybe seen in a take. As Rob L said for the 100% put in only 15% makes the screen. Yeah, I got that, even then. But the still pictures show something totally different than the finished movie. Nothing odd there, though. I was commenting on what looked like a really high percentage of German stuff being worn and used, far more so than I recall from period photos. That said, you really have stuff detail into a background if you hope for anything to get to stick out. For example, that really well-done burned out halftrack with cooked crew inside looks truly horrific in the still shots, but I don't think i saw it at all the film other than the back corner of it in one scene. Such a shame all that detail just got lost in the big picture (literally) but such is the way in film making... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonewaller Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1469 Posted October 21, 2014 The makeup on that guy was incredible, Looked very sore indeed!

willysmb44 Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1470 Posted October 21, 2014 Hey, been meaning to ask, did tank gunner say, "On the way" before firing in WW2? It was a fixture of tank crews when I was in the Army, but did that phrase go back that far? I don't know either way, just curious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Marine Posted October 21, 2014 Share #1471 Posted October 21, 2014 I saw with my son on Sunday. I liked it. The look of the soldiers and the way they carried/wore their gear was just perfect. Owen you did a fantastic job with the uniforms. Thanks for posting the images and giving the progress reports. It was a treat to get to peek behind the curtain and see what went in to making the movie. I think you guys just set the bar a bit higher for the costumers and set designers of future war movies. Well Done. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
