Default Band of Brothers

One of my favourite mini-series ever. The pacific wasn't as good.

Who else is a fan?

ps. if you haven't watched it you should.

Yeah, it's brilliant. I did enjoy the Pacific but it was nowhere near as good.
Band of Brothers is based on a book of the same name written by Steven Ambrose, you should read it I you haven't already. His other books, Citizen Soldiers and D-Day are also awesome.

There is one set in modern day warfare that is very similar to band of brothers what ive head, i just forget the name.

Awesome series. Probably one of favourite ever. Managed to borrow the DVD's about 8 years ago from a friend and watched the whole lot in 2 days when I had my appendix out.
Enemy at the Gates is another good one.
I agree The Pacific was a letdown.

It's also brilliant. If you like war movies and the like, especially stuff from the grunts perspective then you'll enjoy it.
