Bucic Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 SPOILER ALERT! OK, here's what's bugging me for a while. I recall I've seen this movie in early 90's. The only thing I remember is the ending. A guy sunk a submarine on (probably) a river using a... torpedo that he hoisted on a raf or a boat :) Does anyone have a clue on the probable movie name? What's left in my memory is the Polish title - Wojna Smitha which would translate back to English as Smith's War. But you don't want to know how our movie title translations deviate from originals ;) F-5E simpit cockpit dimensions and flight controls Kill the Bloom - shader glow mod Poor audio Doppler effect in DCS [bug] Trees - huge performance hit especially up close
PeterP Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) check this list: http://www.imdb.com/list/vMKUkgG1xLE/ ... edit: I think I got it! - Is this what you are looking for ?: Smith or Murphy np... sure , both are English names! :) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067458/ Murphy's War (1971) Storyline Murphy is the sole survivor of his crew, that has been massacred by a German U-Boat in the closing days of World War II.

Slap_Chop Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Very Impressive Peter ! Ha I remember that movie to. Now could you tell me where I left my car keys ? I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy and I've had both. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
PeterP Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Sorry, but this place I can't find in a list so easily. ...You first have to write this list for me. :D ...It also helped a lot that I remembered watching this movie as a kid. And I was also very impressed how Murphy pulled the strings to get this damn Sub sinking.
WildBillKelsoe Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) Hey guys, I know that movie, it's called Murphy's war. If you're a sub fan, ehem, like me, I recommend watching these: ********************** My Golden Sub movie list ********************** 1- Operation Pacific (John Wayne) 2- Torpedo Run (Glenn Ford and Ernest Borgnine) 3- Destination Tokyo (Cary Grant) 4- We dive at dawn (John Mills) <Brit> 5- The Enemy Below (Robert Mitchum) 6- Das Boot (Jurgen Prochnow) 7- Run Silent Run Deep (Clark Gable) 8- Action in North Atlantic (Humphrey Bogart) <- this one is not boats, its feather merchants :) But that is just to name a few... Compared to the CG boring sh1t we see today, those were true movies, with US Navy cooperation and footage and probably boats in the making.

PeterP Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) Aye!- I hear you! -one point you forgot: I'm fine with todays CGI...but these old movies had one big advantage: they had also true actors! :P and not these so called "Stars" we have to stand today. Edited May 26, 2012 by PeterP
WildBillKelsoe Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Aye- I hear you! -one point you forgot: These movies had also true actors! :P and not these so called "Stars" we have to stand today. And the beautiful thing is, I got them all on DVD's. :) Those people are the cornerstones of American picture. My grand-pappy loved those, and I guess I inherited his affection.
