The Pacific Mini Series Spring 2010

If you are a fan of Band Of Brothers you will enjoy watching The Pacific/HBO,It is due for release in the spring 2010.The Producers are Tom Hanks,Steven Spielberg and Gary Goetzman.
The story is set in second world war and the fight against Japan,a 10 part series made by HBO and Sky have bought the rights.I have spent a few hours looking at trailers and clips from all over the net and I can tell you this I for one will be looking forward to watching what looks to be one of the best series that has been on the box for a long time.
There are lots of graphic shots just like Saving Private Ryan and the scripts are based on actual evens during the Japanese campain in WWII.
Like Band Of Brothers there is a close bond between all involved,The Pacific will be the one to watch in 2010 Guaranteed.

I mentioned this in the thread about what is the best war film you've seen, it's one I've been looking forward to for a long time.

Based on what Hanks and Spielberg have achieved in the past, I expect this to be a gritty, realistic account of what the soldiers went through.

If it is as good as Band of Brothers, then it will be fantastic.

Sorry for being ignorant Ayrton but I must have missed your post the thread,can't wait though mate.

Nice one Ayrton just checked oh I am silly.

Don't worry mate, I think this deserves it's own thread personally.

To forgive is devine .

If it is anywhere near as good as band of brothers then we are in for a treat

Can't wait for this, got the DVD box set of Band of Brothers and thought that was simply brilliant.

Out in March, can't wait!!!!

^^ Yeah i just saw a nice long trailer on TV here in the states a few days ago, looks absolutely brilliant! I really can't wait, Spielberg and War film were made for each other, he knows exactly how to make it.

Bouncing in my seat, I seriously cannot wait.

Need to construct a time machine tonight.

I suppose a bottle of vodka could advance things to tomorrow morning pretty quick.

Im having a bunch of guiness tonight so hopefully with our doubled efforts time shall advance fairly quickly. That makes sense scientifically, right?

Didn't see the add during the Superbowl, but yeah im really pumped for this.

Or maybe i just don't remember seeing it..

Come on, start showing this already!

Surely with Global Warming, February can now be counted as Spring?

This starts in March doesn't it?  Looking forward to it myself, loved Band of Brothers.  HBO are the best by far at making good tv shows.

Awesome! Didn't know about this new series, I'm pumped! Band of Brothers has to be my favourite series of all time.

Trailer:
The Pacific Trailer #2 (HBO)

Good push Dexter.

I'm looking forward to it!

Band of Brothers is absolutely BRILLIANT, I have the DVDs and re-watched it few days ago.

I'm very much looking forward to it. I loved Band Of Brothers.

If it's anything reminiscent of the two players in Hanks and Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan, then we are in for a bloody treat.

March 14th the first episode, I think.

Plenty of details here: http://www.pacificfans.com/

I'm gutted that it's been shown on that worthless channel Sky. I don't own Sky - I only have freeview but I've always loved everything done by Tom Hanks and especially Steven Spielberg.
