On a more serious note, world war one has placed us into a very fucked up and incredible (as in, very huge) timeline where modernism has been expressed in huge, and in the end negative bursts that made eventually discredited it towards our current era of postmodernism.

No thats what they were supposed to do. The guns on the sides were specifically supposed to shoot in trenches when tanks drove over or through trenches.

The flamethrower scenes were stupid though. Although to be fair most WW1 soldiers including the writer didn't actually know how they were used, they assumed it was for burning people when it was really just a gun that sucked out all the air from bunkers. It was a suffocation gun.

>retards don't know about practical effects

>>715730726
>how does this work?
Flamethrowers shoot burning liquid in a surprisingly long distance, much like a water hose. Only thing you need is to shoot the thrower so that the flames keep burning at the doorway of the bunker. The flame sucks out all the air from inside so people inside are forced to come out into hail of bullets or suffocate inside.

Fun fact romans and french foreign legionnaires used the same tactic with jews and beduins hiding in caves. You don't have to go inside a pitch black cave full of hostile enemies, you can just build a big bonfire at the mouth of the cave, let it burn for 4-5 hours and everyone inside are dead.

>>715730791
French population growth was very anemic going in to WW1 already. France added like only a million between 1900-1910 starting from ~40.5 million
Germany from 56 million to 64 million.
The war certainly didn't cause this in advance.

>>715730919
My post unrelated, I assume.

>>715730726
What that retard-kun means is that if you burn a bunker's opening long enough, supposedly you could asphyxiate whoever is inside by both consuming the oxygen and spreading CO1; but I'm pretty sure they WERE indeed intended to be used directly on people, be it out or inside any defenses or vehicles

>>715731980
After WW2 the male-to-female disparity in Germany was 1 to 7. DDR used this to their advantage by having handsome male spies court secretaries of western Germany and turn these women into informants. After WW2 a lot of european newspapers just encouraged women to pair up with war veterans, even disabled ones as a "duty to the country". And women didn't need much encouraging because there weren't enough men to go around so even a guy with half his face melted and both legs missing was considered good enough husband material.

>>715732120
>but I'm pretty sure they WERE indeed intended to be used directly on people,
No they weren't. They were cumbersome and heavy and dangerous to their own users. Why use a flamethrower when an SMG and assault rifle would do the same job? If you look at any WW2 photos of flamethrower usage, they aim them towards bunkers.

How much of that is from immigration? And beyond that there were still demographic consequences of killing off two generations of the best white men the world had to offer. We’re still in this post world war mindset today. The holocaust and the nazis are seen as this original sin creation myth. The good news is the zoomers seem immune to it so maybe the western world is FINALLY beginning to move on

Imagine being thrilled to go die for bankers because that's what every war is, including WW1 and WW2. All well, at least almost everyone in the west is so thoroughly demoralized and apathetic that they laugh when you suggest they join the army and fIgHt DuH GoOd FiGht

But neither the Ukranians or Russians claim that civilians are being starved to death. So who benefits from the propaganda?

>>715724807 (OP)
My dad hyped this movie up, but I didn't like it at all when we watched it. It was insanely predictable, and despite the intense anti-war message (seriously, the movie keeps hammering it in over and over and over that WAR BAD), they for some reason (I assume they had budget to burn and needed scenes for the trailers) slap a huge action setpiece in the middle of the movie and makes war seem fucking awesome (the tank and flamethrower scenes). Even the main character and his buddies suddenly develop plot armor and turn into epic action heroes having a boss fight against a tank for a few minutes.

>>715749008
Nobody but you says anyone is being starved, especially not soldiers, which I'm most concerned with here. Civilians being starved by hostile governments can happen but isn't happening in that particular war either.

you may mostly be right but I'd argue that any war movie is very obviously anti war as long as you have more than two braincels anyway, you'd have to be mentally ill to look at people dying in hystorical battles and think "damn this is awesome" instead of the obvious pointless sufferinjg and loss of life that it is, war is so obviously retardedly inmoral that I am legit surprised that nowadays there's still people shilling Israel and Putin for the most retarded reasons ever, I guess some people don't see the value of a life until they're the ones getting their legs blow off by a missile.

weirdly enough, before the first world war happened, countless young men signed up to go participate voluntarily and even lied about their ages to do so, they thought war would be fun and more eventful than their normal day to day lives, something more risky but more exciting and maybe they could get some glory off of it, nowadays it seems retarded, but you should remember that 1900s time many poorer city dwellers used to have 6 day work weeks where they'd work the whole ass day in the most decroded factory of all time, they probably couldn't imagine something worse than the existential boredom mixed with backbreaking work that such a thing involves, alas, turns out world war 1 did surpass the expectations for suffering very very fast and very very well.

Sounds like a lame thing to make into a movie, but in the earlier movie he is sitting in the trenches alone on a peaceful day and sees a bird land on one of the only branches in no man's land.
He starts sketching it, stands forward a bit to get a better look, and gets sniped.

What movie?

>>715734673
men evolved to fight and conquer, it is a core component of our lizard brain. we all crave to die in a blaze of glory and to have our names immortalised with the Gods.

>>715749463
>This is fucking stupid
Not really considering it reminded him of childhood
> I prefer the movie's ending
There's 3 movies
And the last ones endings i fucking shit, nobody would charge into the trenches after the armistice and the PMs that are shooting the soldiers would be gutted not the other way around.

It's retarded propaganda by a cocksucking socialist.
>I hope they didn't change much from the book for the movie.
A shitton, the 1930s version is the closest adaptation to the book

>>715749783
Battle of the Japan Sea

>>715749269
Movies (and vidya) can have a war bad message and really make it work, but I felt that that movie was taking it way over the top. Like, I get it. War bad. Then it does another close.up of a mud-caked dead soldier. A drinking game each time the movie does it would probably kill people, or at least it felt that way. And the huge action setpiece in the middle also just completely messes with the tone of the movie otherwise. Also, the fucking moment they showed the buddies at the start celebrating together about the war I went "those guys are dead" and that's a goddamn sin for a movie. Foreshadowing is important for a narrative, but there's a difference between chekhov's gun and chekhov's fucking bazooka.

Opinions on Der Hauptmann?
It was more gruesome than I expected and it showed the situation in Germany's most isolated areas and a concentration camp. It was pretty hard to watch because the MC goes in a stupid powertrip trying to fake him being an officer to get a taste of the good german life. I like it almost as much as Im Westen nichts Neues.

>he is sitting in the trenches alone on a peaceful day and sees a bird land on one of the only branches in no man's land.
>He starts sketching it, stands forward a bit to get a better look, and gets sniped
This is better than dying while staring at a butterfly though it is more stupid but I guess it fits the theme of the novel. Still, I prefer the movie's ending. He's not exactly a hero because he just saved one person, he's just a poor guy forced to kill to survive after enlisting due to propaganda and thinking it would get him laid.

play over the top

>>715745889
same thing he does to a duck having ideas above his station

>>715749982
LMAO. This is fucking stupid.
Imagine getting crushed by a tank instead of a bullet, This scene is forced as hell.

>>715746916
they hate Israel because they think it's a colonialist white supremacist relic of the British Empire "ruthlessly exterminating poor defenceless Muslim wymxn-of-colour".

>>715749938
>>715749631
>>715749365
All Quiet on the Western Front doesn't end with him getting shot looking at a butterfly. You literally don't even see his death, only the aftermath.

>>715749938
>I prefer the movie's ending.
It's absolute dogshit that makes no sense
>He's not exactly a hero because he just saved one person
Nobody is saying otherwise
He's just a fucking kid who did what was told was morally righteous.

The movie ending makes no sense historically, narrative wise and naturally.
The soldiers were already celebrating and deserting in droves, you actually think a rogue general with 2 PMs would actually have the strength to force a bunch of armed soldiers to the front like 3 hours before a peace treaty?

Are you retarded? The director certainly thinks so!

>>715749938
>he's just a poor guy forced to kill to survive after enlisting due to propaganda and thinking it would get him laid.
Yeah but he already had to kill, you already had the impact of the earlier scene of him killing the frenchman and seeing his family picture.
The novel's ending just drives it home how pointless of a death it was and how frankly in a sense it was better to die there than to survive with what he had gone through.
Also he did get laid, I forget, was that not in the newer movie?

>>715749938
The ending of the book is the whole fucking point of the story.
That even in days of "quiet" of an0tjthe western front the war was still going on and men still died.

>>715749513
this was the norm for all of the west for all wars until Vietnam. You were a social outcast and just this side of a traitor if you were fighting age and didn't enlist. Vietnam was the first time when men generally refused to enlist.

>>715750173
To be honest, I could imagine a Russian or Israeli commander acting like in the movie's ending. In the movie it's retarded because he's cartoonishly evil and unsympathetic and every soldier universally hates the war and wants to stop fighting and fights anyway for no apparent reason, which isn't how it would be in real life where a lot of them certainly would be on board and pull the rest along in a herd effect.

>>715750173
>The soldiers were already celebrating and deserting in droves, you actually think a rogue general with 2 PMs would actually have the strength to force a bunch of armed soldiers to the front like 3 hours before a peace treaty?
No, I expected them to revolt and kill him. I knew something was wrong with that part.
What I meant by liking the ending is the MC dying after saving a younger recruit. His death at least had some meaning even though it was bullshit because he survived all those years and even outlived his comrades but war is war.
>>715750295

I don't get what you're trying to tell me.

It's just a captcha that got in the way.

>>715750350
IRL they would blow the PMs heads off and fuckoff
It's even dumber that the Generals HQ is literally 200Meters from the front.

The ending is that retarded

>>715750429
>No, I expected them to revolt and kill him
I didn't expect that at all
I expected the MC to die meaninglessly like everybody else.

Instead I got something that felt like a "2 days from retirement" parody.

>>715746085
It's the blue filter. They intend to make things stressful and not naturally heavy.

>>715750350
>Israeli
do you even know anything about Israel's military command history or do you just feel the need to make ignorant takes to try and fit in?
there's a lot of things to say about Israeli military strategy but "just throwing unwilling bodies at the enemy" ain't one of their methods of choice. if anything, they're usually on the receiving end of that tactic.

>>715750674
>IRL they would blow the PMs heads off and fuckoff
No, this has never happened in a civilised country.

The newest war movie I enjoyed was Unkown soldier because it was filmed in Finland and used actuall explosives etc. instead of CGI.
My issue with CGI in war-movies is that the actors just dont react to shit properly. If you have dirt fall on you because shit is exploding next to you the reaction is genuine etc. Not some dude going "Okay, pretend this green cube next to the green cube is a tank"
Kinda how a lot of Media, inclusive Video Games is shit because it isnt made by people who have actuall life-experience nowadays just faggots whos entire experience is consuming media and then aping it.

>>715750709
It's not about tactics, the point of the scene is that the commander is butthurt about losing the war and wants to end with a last attack out of spite. Israelis absolutely are petty enough and do this with bombings around every "ceasefire". The attack itself is quite successful even in the movie.

>>715750725
Happened in Germany

>Tonks even getting this close
Didn't they have a huge amount of diff types of artillery? Just lower the gun and shoot em directly lol

>>715750819
I mean Israel has the Samson doctrine, so we know for a fact they are that spiteful.

>>715750810
>They used live ammunition in Come and See

Pure Soviet insanity

>>715750819
that's a baseless assumption. ignoring Israel's track record of utterly kerbstomping everyone who declares war on them, Israelis aren't the type to stupidly throw their lives away on a foregone conclusion. if you know anything about Jewish history you should know they are very adept at adapting to regime changes and slithering back into the shadows.
the Samson Option exists not for a general war loss but rather for when they're facing the threat of total annihilation (I.e., they've already been nuked)

>>715750725

>>715750970
Thanks Anon, I will give it a watch.
Reminds me, Das Boot is fucking great too because the director was legit insane. They buildt a submarine replica (you can go see it in Bavaria Film Studios still) and put it into a hangar because the director didnt want any of the actors to see sunlight for the entire fucking filming. He also poured machineoil around everywhere so they would smell it and be missarable. One actor slipped on it and broke his leg and he only let him into the ambulance covered up so he wouldnt tan.

>>715729995

They were meat grinders. WWIII would've been fucking brutal and inevidable if not for nukes and MAD.

>>715750949
ask yourself what nuclear power wouldn't fire back if someone nuked them first. you think the US wouldn't? Russia wouldn't? Pakistan wouldn't? France wouldn't? Samson is a hero in the Christian bible too.

>>715751194
Now that's the kind of filmmaking I can get behind.

>>715751194
Give Stalingrad (1993 Movie) and Generation War (2013 Series) a watch too, if you find the time anon.

>>715751142
Again it's not about throwing lives away, the attack was very smooth anyway since the defenders weren't expecting it. It's about the principle of it from the losing party's point of view. The current day equivalent would be an aerial bombing run, which Israel does consistently do before and even after every ceasefire.

>>715751283
The Samson Option isn't about getting nuked, it's about nuking other countries in the event Israel loses a war hard enough, ie taking the world hostage as a last ditch effort.

>>715734673
Don’t shit your big boy diapers kike.

>>715751386
Whatever the case I think everyone in this thread can agree that Israel needs to be nuked after every jew in the USA and Europe is deported there.

>>715751541
Yep.

>>715751467
The same idea can apply to any nuclear power though, no? If faced with overwhelming odds in a war for survival I can only assume every nation would start launching shit.
It definitely applies more to Israel though considering they have not only been existentially threatened in a war but they actually threatened it before, at least allegedly.

>>715751541

>>715751541
I personally have no problem nuking them where they are

>>715751625
Really depends. I don't think France or Britain would ever do that, even America is unlikely. Russia, China, India, Korea probably would.

>>715751467
I think they'd go beyond nukes. I could see them using a bioweapon on us as well

And the result was everything went to shit for everyone in europe, including the ruling families. One got wiped of the face of the earth, two (three if you count Italy later on) got disposed and are now some E-tier richfags who wish they had the clout of some fat swedish kid making fartnoises on youtube playing MDickies HARDtime and the bong one became a tourist-trap monkey family to gawk at where chinese tourists walk in and out of their residence daily to make pictures of their toilet.

>your hair a bit oily but thick

>>715752489
That's the whole point and why it's in quotation marks, the movie tries to hamfist something that adds nothing. Him "saving" the guy is supposed to make him seem like more of a hero instead of him just facing an entirely meaningless death but it doesn't even accomplish that.
