Regarding Band of Brothers....

Just finished a full watch through of Band of Brothers, having only seen an episode here or there. To be honest I wasn't that impressed. The story moved slow and a lot of the characters were rather dull or predictable. I would have loved more as well from the German side but I gather it was strictly about the Airborne guys. Great WW2 piece/documentary type show, but not the great all time TV series some make it out to be. I'm sure I'm in the minority on that.
Frankly as I have told Marciano1 on a few occasions, I enjoyed "Fury" more than Band of Brothers.

The characters were real American heroes.

I agree, the men who the characters were based on deserve all our respect and admiration but there story made for average drama TV, great documentary though.

I'm not sure how this opinion is even possible.

The frick?
To me it's up there with Lonesome Dove as the GOAT mini series. Heck, I'd put it way up there even if you include movies and t.v. shows.

Do you know what a documentary is?

I love Lonesome Dove, just didn't get into Band of Brothers, found it very meh. Best parts were the intros with the real life heroes and seeing David Schwimmer.

You went in with expectations that were way too high. That's tough watch without them being so high as so many people have seen it and talked about it, especially in this board, because it came out FOURTEEN GOD DAMNED YEARS AGO.

Are you trolling?

Probably was predictable since you have seen it already
