I cringe whenever I watch a WWll war movie, where the characters use 1960 slang instead of the 40s slang. Another sight that makes me cringe is the sight of a modern Rail Road engine, like the modern Amtrak ones, instead of a steam one.

How about the scene in the movie Waterworld where the smokers have a quad 50 but they keep firing. They're not shooting it and in short bursts or shooting continuously. Won't that cause the barrels to overheat and explode?

Okay, the German Soldier has a Thompson submachine gun I see that. How about the Battle of Midway where you see different scenes from different movies we're supposed to be a Japanese plane but it's actually an American plane. you can also tell they were borrowing scenes from Tora Tora Tora!.

PO3 Donald Murphy
You're thinking of this poor guy. Survives Pearl Harbor (Tora Tora Tora) then gets sent to some island and gets attacked there too (Midway). Shameless editing from Hollywood. Oh well. At least they got the machine gun correct...

PO3 Donald Murphy - yes that was one of many scenes. I also saw many of the same two scenes in the Black Sheep Squadron TV show that was a TV show not a movie so I'm more forgiving for low budget since it was cool if they had those corsairs that were actually part of the Honduran Air Force and used for the show Once they were sold the Americans. Elise Black Sheep Squadron with semi original and you have most Aviation scenes that were from the TV show

OK, I'm going to date myself here, but in the TV series Rat Patrol, the US Soldiers are armed with Spanish sub-machine guns disguised as Thompson .45s fighting the Germans in North Africa that are equipped with US Self-propelled howitzers disguised as Panzers. I loved the series as a kid though.

And what was up with Christopher George and the Aussie headgear. Jeeps armies with .50's racing around the desert looking to engage Panzers, amazing!

I always thought those jeeps were so cool as a kid. Then I had to drive them in Germany and Nam. You drive one of those across a rice paddy like they did you would be upside down by the second dike. But they did look cool, coming off a sand dune and flying 50 foot before coming down. O'yea, the gunner never stopped firing the whole time.

You know, in the credits, there is always a military advisor. Fire that dude! He must have been drunk and never really participated in the military because they usually have tons of errors in the movies. Perhaps deliberate, but always annoying. Wrong ribbon/medal order, wrong customs and courtesies, uniforms ate up ... I could use the money and won't make your movie look bad, hire me please!

Thought I was done with this, but.... Watched a 2 hour NCIS movie episode last night. The gist of the plot is that Director Jenny while on assignment, with Gibbs, in Europe some time in the past was involved with what comes across, but is never actually stated, as a "hit" on some bad guys. This assignment comes back to haunt Dir Jenny because she missed the one she was to have "hit", and the target has come back to even the score with her and Gibbs. As an added twist to the plot, Dir Jenny has some unidentified terminal disease. Dir Jenny contacts the former agent that lives in Mexico, but can be stateside in a matter of minutes, to help her dispatch the would be dispatchers before they can get to Gibbs. Dir Jenny goes down in a hail of gunfire, 4 against 1.... Sadly I have to admit watching to the end out of nothing other than morbid curiosity.

Second only to the amazing folks at CSI: Las Vegas/Miami/New York, etc... Who with only the tiniest amount of physical evidence, and interrogation, are able to solve any crime, whether it was committed last week or twenty years ago.

I love CSI New Orleans but a question. When did military cops get the right to interrogate civilians? They walk into a business with out a civilian cop and start asking questions and looking for evidence.

I was never stationed in New Orleans, but I'm fairly certain that the NCIS office didn't operate out some ramshackle building down town.

As a long time Florida resident, my favorite part of CSI Miami is that the only crime lab in the state is in Tallahassee, not Miami.

Hi, SSG Fleming.
I don't remember the name of the very bad horror/sci-fi/action flick, but one of the main characters was a 16 star general. He had four stars on both sides of his service coat collar and four on both coat epaulets.
