  1. I am on episode 8 out of 10 and I have to say this show is the shit!

    I got recommended this show in a thread I posted somewhere about war movies, thanks blades.

    David Schwimmer was a douche in Friends and in the first epidsode of Band of brothers.
    He always has this dumb look on his face.

    This guy is just a douche 4life. Anyone who's seen episode one when a private got him to cut the barbed wire fence which in turn made the cows escape knows what im talking about LMAO. ThAT part was jokes.

    Great Great Great show.
    I remember buying as soon it as it came out on dvd and watched the whole thing twice(it was winter break).
    Since then i've probably watched the whole thing 6 or 7 times since, over like 6 years.
    The acting, the writing, the special effects, it's all amazing.
    Sure, David Schwimmer is pretty typecast for Friends but between Band of Brothers and his appearance in Curb Your Enthusiasm i've gotten over it. Then again, I never really watched/liked Friends.
    I like to try to narrow down my favorite episode but I always end up just naming 6 or 7 of them, lol.
    Same with the characters, cept I usually narrow it down to Nixon or Speares.

    In high school about 1 year after this came out on HBO, one of the guys that the book was based on, like the actually guy from WWII, came to my school and spoke. As part of the school's "media crew" aka I was filming it, I got to meet the guy privately, which was pretty damn cool.

    If you're on 8, and if I remember correctly the last 2 are really good, and intense.
    Enjoy the show!
     
  3. Spears is a fuckin monster haha. I liked buck compton but too bad he got ptsd. I Also liked Garnier aka gonerreah
     
  4. Gotta be my favourite TV series of all times. But then again, I am a WW2 nut.

    As for favourite Episode, it have to be Carentan (ep. 3), and favourite characters (apart from Winters) Nixon and "Popeye".

    Only series that have come close in quality and authentisity of historical events in my book, is Rome, both seasons.

    Band of Brothers fans, should put a big mark in their calendar for March 14th. Then we get the premiere of "The Pacific". Which is, to copy the blurb from IMDb: "A 10-part mini-series from the creators of "Band of Brothers" telling the intertwined stories of three Marines during America's battle with the Japanese in the Pacific during World War II."

    Xmas do come very early this year. Just two weeks later, we get the continuation of the V remake _and_ BF:Bad Company 2 is released.

    I'll never get any work done this spring :p
     
  5. Love this show, this and 6 Feet Under are my favorite shows!! I'd ssay my favorite BOB character is George Luz. "Flys spread disease! So keep yours closed." :p What a great show!
     
  6. I love this series I remember buying it as soon as it hit DVD. George Luz and Malarkey have to be my favorite characters. Luz-You don't say! The Germans are bad, huh?
     
  7. I can't help but laugh when popeye gets shot in the A$$ and starts yelling
     
  8. Great fuckin show, one of my favorites
