Seen it, impressed so much, I will mostly see it again;) (nah don't download the flic over the net, go, buy the tickets) the experience is all worth it. :thumbup: Something to do while on vacation:smilewink:
VMFA117_Poko Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 I've seen this movie! Amazing. But those AWACS systems shown in the video are just unbielevable. Are they for real? Look like future RTS games.
Guest IguanaKing Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Heh...the AWACS systems shown in that video are only what the US military has allowed us to see. So...yup...they're real. Beyond that...use your imagination. ;)
Corsair7662 Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 seen it at Dulles Airport Smithsonian Museum. Boy is it a joy for only being like 20 minutes long!
AJ.eightFive Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 The DVD was my first experience with HDDVD, very sharp indeed. I wish I had been able to see it in the IMAX theatre though. The aerial photography is beautiful.

Guest IguanaKing Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 Yup, DVD or IMAX, its an awesome video. I know a lot of people like to rip it apart for its "inaccuracies", but in the end its a fun military aviation video. The video footage is excellent. :thumbup:

Shaman Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 I've seen this movie! Amazing. But those AWACS systems shown in the video are just unbielevable. Are they for real? Nope. Just CGI, special effects. Same with cockpit footage, HUD and cockpit is lame CGI because cameras were installed under the plane. Anyway there's some great HD footage. Look for Speed & Angels now. http://speedandangels.com/ 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer
GR27 Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 I've seen it and it is a wonderful movie, but i did not like that when he had the dogfight between the F-16 agressor from the red team they show a cockpit of an F-15 from the inside and from the outside it was an F-16 agressor, don't they know we fly the Eagle in Lock-On and we know how does an F-15 cockpit looks like? :pilotfly: A good movie for the whole family.
Pilotasso Posted December 24, 2006 Posted December 24, 2006 Excellent photography but unrealistic aereal story montage. .
