relatively little known (seems to me) but massive attack that went badly for Allied forces. James Caan, Sean Connery, and a host of other famous faces.
Longest Day
DDay film made in black and white (unfortunately).
Bridge on the River Kwai
(very loosely based on real events, still great)
Tora! Tora! Tora!
first big film about Pearl Harbor. Forget the film made in the 2000's.
If you are looking for a documentary, the History Channel did a fantastic job with it's Rise And Fall of the Third Reich back in 2010.
As others have said, Beats are overrated and more importantly overpriced for what you get. Look into Audio Technica MH-50 for a decent set of headphones. AKG, Grado, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic... other good brands.
A game between two, now non-existent private schools:
High school senior homecoming. Up 18-13, late in the 4th. Opponent driving, getting 1st down after 1st down, mostly by passing. With about a couple minutes left the opposing QB throws a pick, we will have the ball on our 3 yard line.
Next play, a run play is called, running right behind me. I’m playing right OT - I’ve got to block an LB on this play. Ball is snapped – where’d the LB go? I block no one, next thing I know our RB is running downfield for a (school record) 97 yard TD and the 24-13 win.
When I watched the tape of the game I found why I never saw the LB - the DT in front of him stayed on all fours deliberately, didn’t move at all at the snap. The LB blitzed and used the DT as a jumping board to launch himself into the backfield. Instead of making a flying tackle on our RB he missed entirely, and our RB went untouched for the 97 yarder.

Correct! The humor is very 1950's, but the story is still great.
Come And See
surreal at times but powerful. Amazing, in fact.

The recent "Red Tails" film was bad. 30mm CANNON shells bounce off American planes, because 'murrica.
"Russian liberation of the Baltic states"
you mean re-conquest. USSR invaded Baltic states in 1940.
cool virtue signalling bro
I'm looking forward to our defense shutting them down entirely and the first lopsided victory over Sparty in far too long.
OMG the young well conditioned exceptional athletes will all die!
lol drink more water. turn on a fan.
I was more surprised/concerned about the lack of an X-ray machine at the Purdue facility.
To borrow a phrase, To hell with Ohio. If they lost every game I wouldn't mind at all :)
Also they are looking rather human this first half against Wisconsin. Will be interesting to see if Wisconsin can keep it up in the 2nd half.
I don't know man. If App State pulls this off all you're going to hear is "first it was Michigan, then Tennessee".
OTOH the ess-eee-seee will take a hit and I'll be happy about that :)
Paradise, Michigan, will be known as "Eh, It's OK" Michigan.
Found the Brazilian.
Dragons - they'd have no idea the two were no longer chained up, and as far as they knew the third had flown off with Dany to who knows where.
At this point, the good guys winning is enough of a shock that I'm fine with it.
When the receipt from the mail order catalog said my check cleared.

I honestly wished I knew about some of these classes back in the day...
Sports and Life in Ancient Rome was pretty easy, though.
Bernstein is an odd bird, for sure.
My "wtf is this" was most of grad school, so, yeah...
