I thought it was good also“If we are to have another contest in the near future of our national existence, I predict that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition and ignorance on the other.”

i wouldn't say it sucked, it was ok
the last episode was neat at the end when they recapped on many of the characters, showed you their real picture and what they did for careers after they returned home.
A few were still alive.
Really made you think how lucky most of us have it now compared to those days back then.Comment

Did that on BoB too, but because you actually knew who the fuck the characters were in BoB, you were actually impressed.i wouldn't say it sucked, it was ok

I didn't even like BoB, and The Pacific was worse than that.
The only character I didn't despise was Sledge. Leckey was a big baby. Too much shit was made up, and historical events were fucked with to make them more dramatic. That and the intro + last time on the pacific + tom hanks having oral sex with himself took up 10 minutes in episodes that were at best 50 minutes long.
I didn't even watch the last episode. That's how terrible it was. I oculdn't bring myself to punish meself any longer
The problem with sledge is that every time i saw him, i thought of him in the jeep after it went over the cliff in jurassic park. Also i still call him tim.Need custom blog posts or articles? Hit me up: Blog And Article Writer

Sucked compared to Band of Brothers, I was really disappointed in how they didn't really show how miserable the conditions they fought through were.Comment

I only caught the very first ep of The Pacific and I thought it was ok. I forgot to set the DVR for the remaining episodes.Comment

It's not as bad as TREME though! What a self important heap of trash that is? Hard to believe the guy who created THE WIRE created this mess.
Everybody is a one hit wonder these days cause the have to waste all their time developing their salesmanship and networking and they have no time to work on their talent to actually make the product when they make the sale.Comment

I watched the first 2 episodes and gave it a break because I was bored. The Wire had the same effect on me, but that turned out be my favorite show of all time. I don't think Treme will get to those levels, because I don't know how much drama they can milk from that setting.It's not as bad as TREME though! What a self important heap of trash that is?

THE WIRE and DEADWOOD had the best developed characters I've ever seen in my life. Both creators created complete crap for their second series. HBO is pretty much a complete piece of shit now. SHOWTIME is way better and STARZ is starting to blow SHOWTIME awayI watched the first 2 episodes and gave it a break because I was bored.

As far as TREME, they can't get through a scene without mentioning NEW ORLEANS and jacking off over it. I never heard such silly shit in my life. People trying to make it in Hollywood don't talk about the town that much. They're making me hate New Orleans and I used to love that city LOL.Last edited by smutnut; 06-07-2010, 07:53 AM.Comment

It definitely seems like David Simon has a serious hard-on and affection for New Orleans, that will be a hard sell for anyone north of that area.THE WIRE and DEADWOOD had the best developed characters I've ever seen in my life.

Speaking of STARZ, have you watched Party Down and Spartacus? Both are kick ass TV shows.

Yup, love them both, and Gravity is pretty good to in an odd way. Also they have this new thing coming out that I can't tell what it is, but looks like it's about the crusades or sword in the stone or something.
I think to compete with that showtime thing THE BORGIAS about papacy incest and murder and everything. That looks good too. Showtime still hasn't really sold out yet.Comment

How could a series, (A SERIES I ASK) about killing JAPS in WWII not end with the dropping of the ATOMIC BOMB? Were we trying to soften that? Did they think it was overused (unlike nazi's and vampires lol)? I mean what the fuck? I watched the entire series cause I expected to see the bomb drop, and unlike band of brothers, I never once hated the JAPS in the entire series (which brings up lots of other questions), and the JAPS where just as bad at the time if not worse than the NAZI'S, don't ever doubt this, seriously.
JAPS and NAZI'S same side, just as bad! JAPS where raping CHINESE WOMEN with their bayonets, PREGNANT CHINESE WOMEN!Last edited by smutnut; 06-07-2010, 12:11 PM.Comment

waited almost 10 years for this series...
if there was no Band of Brothers ..this would have been pretty cool...but since there is..i tend to agree with the others on the fact is wasnt as good as expected...Comment

It wasn't really about the war -- it was about 3 soldiers in the Pacific campaign. The bomb is another story.How could a series, (A SERIES I ASK) about killing JAPS in WWII not end with the dropping of the ATOMIC BOMB? Were we trying to soften that?

Yeah, but do we really give a shit about 3 CRUMMY SOLDIERS in the scope of things? That was my problem with RYAN'S PRIVATES, and I thought they figured that out with BAND OF BROTHERS but guess not.
On the other hand, if THE WIRE had been a series that didn't care about the individuals it wouldn't have worked so maybe there is just a writing problem.Comment
