Just finished watching U-571, and what a great film... However, a pack of lies. Why is it Hollywood rewrite history???

 

because the truth doesn't sell

 

You're right there. Great escape, Braveheart, Rob Roy, U-571, The patriot, and yet can make something like 1492-Conquest that is so accurate is is unreal!
The problem is that younger people take it as gospel, and as such history becomes even more skewed than when it was written to start with!

 

I remember the explosion at the end of that movie was bigger than if a nuke went off onboard. I didn't like the movie and I normally like naval flicks.

 

Oooh, we could just move that statement to this "other" thread I think we all know about...

 

 

What happened to Bon Jovi? One minute he was there and next he wasn't??

 

Don't know. Maybe he had a hissy fit mid film and pissed off?

 

Hollywood rewrites history in war films so the yanks get to win one. 0h whats this over in the corner, worms!! in a can?

 

Are you talking about in the movie or in real life b/c he's definitely still around in real life and all the old ladies love him.
