    Oskar Nominations

    I would like to see Oskar nominations for the following:


    "Best Assault Rifle in a Leading Combat Movie Role"

    Wardaddy's StG 44

    "Best Schwere Panzer in a Supporting Combat Movie Role"

    Tiger 131 formally of the 1. Kompanie 3. Platoon 504. Schwere Panzer Abteilung

      @FreeRange: Welcome to the forum and it is refreshing to have a female point of view in discussions such as this.

      Dragging my wife to Fury would have subjected me to a minimum of three "chick flicks" down the road, so the cost was just too high!

      I am of German descent as well (1/2 German, just not sure which half?) and get tired of the "all Germans were/are Nazis stereotype". I can only imagine how the full-blooded Germans feel.

      Best,

      Jeff

                Yeah, mine came along as well. While her carrot was having me drive her around shopping for 3 hrs the day before ... I'm sure I'll be paying for it later (like you say with a few chick flicks in the works).

                    I think this is a big-screen movie...unless you have a huge TV at home!

                    Thanks!

                    So many different 'varieties' of Germans out there too. It took me forever to figure out why my parents' accents were different than those of our German family friends...

                      I say worth watching, if not just for the armor, equipment, and uniforms.....as well as for the good guys who were involved in its production. I am going in a couple of days....

                        I say big screen...but it has to be one with the super badazz duper surround sound...such as the XD Cinemark theater. Was loud as hell. When an explosion happened on screen, the whole theater shuddered.

                          I watched "Fury" last night at a pre-release showing, the film is absolutely brilliant, uniforms & equipment spot on, you must see this at the cinema to get the best effects, some of the action is really awesome the camera work in some scenes gets you on the edge of your seat,
                          there is also attention to detail which I was really impressed with, like war trophy's hanging up inside the tank, Go and see it at the cinema you will not be disappointed !

                          Regards

                            You could say the same for the English speakers ... still couldn't make out WTF half of what they were talking about.

                              i saw it yesterday

                              i liked it, i was involved i trained all of the Germans the hitler youth with the panzerfausts, the Pak crews, the wehrmacht in the trenches and sorted all of the 300 waffen ss blokes into an original order of battle of three zugs per kompanie and marched them up the road in step to fight. I watched at the cast and crew screening in the UK, i think he done a good job it was not dark? i could see all of the detail but i know where to look! thats me at the end gobbing off in german telling the blokes to move forward and to move the MG up the road futher, i then report to the sturmbannfuhrer in the halftrack, i have a mismatched m42 planetree smock and a real oak b cover on, i could clearly see it? maybe you should look harder! go and see it again and you will see more detail.

                              its a film and i liked it, i could answer lots of your gripes? but why bother ok just a couple, the tiger was close under a km from the shermans! so there was no advantage of the gun (in reality it was about 500 meters)

                              face veil at night! shine thats why a great big sawmill on fire and his face would shine like a beacon!

                              infantry against tank! they were marching along in Germany going forward to fight and did not expect a tank to be there! but they still sent a zug forward to do a recce ! as there objective was further on (look up SS panzer brigade westfahlen)

                              a hollywood film with waffen ss

                              ultimately go find your own 80 million and show us how its done!

                              Good kit, good vehicles, good uniforms, good skill, good film to watch with the blokes and if all that dont tick your boxes watch x factor or strictly come dancing and rot your brain that way lol

                                a hollywood film where the waffen ss win!

                                i don't know about others, but my impressions/hopes were that the movie would focus more on battle and a lot more Tiger action. What were you feelings on the the darkness of the film? and the plot?
