World War II in HD is incredible

[Spitfire'd]

Hey gang,

It would be a travesty not to mention this TV show right now.

History Channel did a 2 year collaborative search and found hundreds of hours of World War II footage that was filmed in color. They've put it together into a series and are premiering it this week.

Most of this footage has never been shown before and it is incredible. From never before seen footage of Pearl Harbor aftermath to Hitler to live executions. It really shows World War II in a new light.

If you have the time and are interested in history at all, you should watch this show! Some of the scenes are graphic, so if you are faint of heart this may not be for you.

Anyways it's playing right now and new episodes look like they are on every night at 9 P.M. Eastern Time.

I was glued to my TV last night up until I had to go to work.

The footage they have is simply astounding and left me speechless many times last night.

I've been watching some, its awsome. And im quite sure it wasn't filimed in color but they 'made' it into color with magic...

This was very well done and I do have videos of the History Channel showing WW II in color so I'm sure they had asome footage

 

[ManBearPig]

Great idea for a mini series for once from the History Channel

I just watched some of it... its amazing. O_O

 

[MentalSoul]

I've been recording it on my DVR - it's an incredible mini-series.

It actually fits in well with Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan.

This is truly what war is. Those bodies that you see in the footage are real. War is a terrible thing.

My friend has been talking about this since Monday, this is what he now looks forward to every day, "Depending on how much homework I get in this class, I might be able to watch World War II tonight."
