Waldo.Pepper Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 I guess this is aimed at my mates that are local to me ... like Dubbo and Kelly (and you too Arther!) who may be up for another movie night. But if anyone out there really wants to see this movie I suppose that I can arrange something. By the cover art you can see that it features the Pe-2 so it is a little bit timely. And I figured that since we are all plane crazy someone else may like to see it. I have a copy of the movie: The Chronicles of a Dive Bomber. A Russian movie, made in 1967 and mentioned in this thread: http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums/a/ ... 1901089634 It is in black and white, Russian language no subtitles. It is tough to recommend the movie but I am glad I saw it. Once! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubbo Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Sweet Waldo. How big's your telly? (Personal question I know, but relevant) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo.Pepper Posted May 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Well, I'm 6'4" with size 14 feet so that should give you an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubbo Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 We should rock up to Jetsetsam's place and watch it on his 42inch plasma HDTV. Didn't he say he played this game on his giant TV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 And try to fix his new computer while you are there so he can come fly with us again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo.Pepper Posted May 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 And try to fix his new computer while you are there so he can come fly with us again. I volunteered to fix it up, but I drew the line at a reach around. Never heard back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JensenPark Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 ROFL MAO? Now that is funny. Yea, Waldo - the reacharound was a bit much to expect. Jetset said FalconIcehole built him a brand new uber-computer. Should have had it up and running for a few weeks by now. I'll shot him a note and find out what's going on.

Dubbo Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 So Arthur will be up this way again on the weekend of 3rd June. Your place or mine mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo.Pepper Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Some pro's and cons. Your place does have a better TV. mine is a 27incher. My place has plenty of books! Your place has the two of you already there. My place needs a damn good cleaning, remember my rec room (where all the fun is - has never seen a vacuum - but I'm sure I can get the wife to give it a whirl! ) I'm sure there are more pro's and cons. Your decision! The Russian movie really is a dog though! Did you manage to get the Dunkirk and Killing Hitler docu dramas to work on your end? If so I can always make a copy of the Russian flick and you can suffer by yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JensenPark Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 Hey Waldo - how bad is it? Cheesy bad? Or badly made? Pearl Harbour bad? We should rent Stalingrad and drink some beers over that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo.Pepper Posted May 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Oh! HA! It's bad on many many levels. I watched it once but I think that's my limit. You won't be able to watch it. Unless you are drunk - and fill in the dialogue with your own funny lines. Will make you copies if you wish. No need to rent Stalingrad I have a copy some where around here somewhere. A great movie I have somewhere (though not WW2) is The Beast about Russians in Afghanistan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubbo Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 I have a Russian movie about Afghanistan called "The 9th Company" I was looking for it when you were here and have since found it. Not bad. (It had a $10M budget) But the subtitles were a bit inaccurate. I had my Russian friend over giving me a running translation as we watched. Much better. I'll get it to you Waldo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
