Reaction to the Simpsons porn version "Das Butt" when?

Helly R

One of the best WW2 movies ever.

UsedFishing

Probably the most realistic submarine film ever made, the actual U Boat they used to film was a recreation that very closely resembled the real thing, except it was about 25% larger to accomodate the cameras and film crew.

Happy Hanukkah

"This one is BIG! ... And it's long. And I know nothing about [it]." Sure, George. :-P

Now that you've seen Das Boot, you should get back to Broken Lizard (the Super Troopers guys) and watch Beerfest. You'll understand why I'm suggesting that here when you watch that movie.

"Space is easy. It's empty." Regarding Morse Code, the original development -- and it's later revision and current form "International Morse Code" -- was specifically designed for the Latin alphabet. Individual letters are sent, so it can be used to send multiple languages without any change, but only those that use the same alphabet. Just like I can type in German right now using the same English keyboard I have (Guten Morgen!), but I couldn't send a message in Arabic or Korean without using some kind of translator since my keyboard literally can't produce those characters. Languages that use different alphabets have their own separate codes. In many instances they're just 'translations' of standard Morse -- assigning the same sequence to letters that sound the same -- but some of them have whole new sequences since there's no direct correspondence. The Japanese system is the Wabun code, and the Chinese version is called the Chinese telegraph code. Fun bit of further Morse Trivia: Samuel Morse (Who the code is named after) didn't create the final code itself. His original code was a limited sequence of numbers that could only be used to send specific coded messages. It was Alfred Vail who took that concept and expanded it into an alphabet that could be used for full communication. Morse subsequently screwed Vail out of the promised profits from their telegraph work, and Vail left the industry completely when he saw he wouldn't get the proper returns. His memorial monument at his grave refuses to use the name "MORSE code", so he is instead credited as the inventor of the 'dot-dash alphabet'.

JBK405

I was going to come make this same remark!

Awesome80s

"It's my first day !"

Vengeance

I start to feel all cooped up in these U-Boats. I had a bad experience once.

Allboroking

It’s so great that you finally watched one of my favorite movies. As a german I can tell you there is laws in Germany against glorifying the nazi era. So you won’t find any german movies doing that. There has been some controversy about german films like „Downfall“ (in my eyes a german must-watch-movie), because some people accused it of showing Nazis in a too positive way. If you ever come to Germany you can visit the interior model of the U-Boat used in the movie in the „Bavaria Film Studios“ near Munich. I did it when I was a child and it gave me such a claustrophobic feeling.

Mastervodo

Hologram? What about all that "We are not AI" talk?

Marylou inProgress

"Serious man has boat and hat." I mean... Yeah no that's an accurate plot summary, he do have boat and hat. Now I don't have to rewatch this stress fest of a movie, cheers for that 😅😭 Seriously though I'm so glad you reacted to this! It's such a brilliant movie. But god would I not l never think of rewatching it were it not for you folks watching it lol.

Andras Beck

Das Boot is one of my favorite war movie. Jurgen Prochnow at his best!

Andras Beck

Hunt for Red October is an adventure movie. Das Boot is a war movie. This is "Band of brothers" under the see.

Robert Evans

George: the reason the letters could be delivered was they were in Spain. Spain was offically neutral during WWII so any military ships or personnel caught in Spain would be interned, held there until the end of the war.The Chief and the reporter would have been smuggled back to Axis occupied countries, risking getting captured and interned by Spanish authorities if they had been caught. the German ship that resupplied them was stuck there for the whole war, but basically living in lucury because of it.

Robert Evans

There's a catpure Uboat at the Museum of Science and technnology in Chicago that was used to make the sets for this movie. I'be been to thaty musuem andthe boat was a cramped as it looked.

Tom Hess

If you guys are ever in need of one last submarine fix, I would recommend "K-19: The Widowmaker" (2002), with Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson. Not a masterpiece by any means, but I think it's REALLY underrated.

Mike FromOz

Spain was a collaborator with the Axis in WWII, neutral at the beginning of the war, then 'non-belligerant', meaning they wouldn't take an active military role in the conflict, so the letters would not be confiscated and personnel would not be arrested. The reason for not giving the letters is that in order to get back to Paris, they would need to go through the South of France, which was controlled by Partisans, to get to Vichy France. That means no rail connection, and their ports were blockaded by the Allies, so no sea transport either. And I don't think they would have bothered to send it on a plane as it definitely was not of enough importance to warrant travel on however few flights they took between Spain and Nazi occupied/Vichy France. To show how much of a collaborator Spain was, and the Allies knew they were, the British used the body of a homeless man who died from eating rat poison, as a method of transporting fake documents. He was dressed as a Royal Marine Captain, had a briefcase handcuffed to his clothing, and was deployed from a submarine off the coast of Spain, were the tide washed his body ashore. This was 'Operation Mincemeat', and was used to fool the Axis that an upcoming invasion by the Allies in the Mediterranean was not aimed at Sicily (which it was), but instead was going to attack Greece and Sardinia. The Spanish got hold of the body, grabbed all the information, carefully removed documentation without breaking the envelope seals, photographed it, and then returned the documents back into the envelopes, before handing it over to British authorities. The photographs of the documents were sent to Germany, which verified their 'validity' by checking the communications from the British Embassy in Spain, which spoke about the importance of them all. As a result, the Axis redeployed necessary units to both Greece and Sardinia, and none to Sicily, allowing Sicily to be liberated with very few losses than those expected. So, in the end, dead men do tell tales! Even though he was misidentified from who he really was, he was interred with full military honours in Spain, something I feel his life deserved, especially for the role he played in the war.

Andras Beck

The internatiopnal morse code contains 26 latin letters. Whatever you want to do with these, you do.

Ginger

100 Bonus points for the "Core" reference :D

Jay Dee

The main theme song is epic... up there with the best soundtracks. Any of you seen the miniseries?

Ginger

I got the BluRay box with the miniseries, director's cut, theatrical cut, soundtrack, making of and audiobook. Think I'll watch the miniseries next. Or the audio commentary with Wolfgang Petersen (RIP) and Jürgen Prochnow

Kim Brink

Water is green because of all the green algaes in the water and the moonlight.

Ari Ramirez

Now you see what's so good a-boot this movie! i just really had to make that canadian accent joke okay

Andras Beck

"I guess they made it back,yeah!" - Oh, my sweet summer child...

Happy Hanukkah

If you continue making jokes like that, we will give you das boot!

Shaka, When the Walls Fell

That is such a good movie. The tension, the claustrophobia, the danger, the fight for survival... it has all. Top notch acting to boot. Showed this to my college roommates some years back, but they must've all been suffering from ADHD, cause they got bored and stopped watching in 15 minutes cause there were no explosions every 20 seconds of the whole movie. The uncultured swine...

Kris

Fun Fact: The "Other Movie" was made, starring Tom Hanks, and it's called Greyhound. It's an excellent if overlooked historical drama with Hanks as a destroyer captain fighting German Subs. Great little movie, highly recommend.

Helly R

Downfall just shows them as humans, which they were, and that makes people uncomfortable. It's easier to see them as monsters.

Paul T Hewes

Greyhound is a decent movie. Tight with little extraneous fluff. Good action scenes.

Mr_Jordan

Hi, a german here. As far as I know, depicting historical accurate stuff like this is fine, it is a war story about the common soldiers at the front. And if you caught that undertone early on, a lot of them dont really agree with the regime. In regards to the glorifying thing, as long as its not putting the politics behind it in a good light I suppose its allowed, but it still is somewhat of a touchy subject. Making fun of it for comedy sake is fine though..

Sergio Meira

Just taking advantage of this movie to reiterate a few suggestions: - Pig (with Nicholas Cage); - Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (with Steve Carrell and Keira Knightley) and as a series, this Canadian one (3 seasons): - The Collector (with Chris Kramer as Morgam Pym, the devil's soul collector).

Darin Foat

I saw this in the theater, and the sound design was really impressive. In the scene where the rivets start popping out, it sounded like they were ricocheting around the theater.

JoeNotCharles

ADHD can actually be an advantage in watching such a long movie - it's not being unable to pay attention, it's being unable to choose where your attention goes. So if the movie grabs you, you're not going to stop watching even if your butt falls asleep and your bladder explodes. But if it doesn't grab you in the moment, you won't be able to focus on it even if you were really excited about it just a day ago.

Jacob King

As an adhder who watched Oppenheimer four times in a row I can attest, but I have also dipped out of some apparent masterpieces 15 minutes in. You have to be very selective about when and what you watch. I’m always impressed with people who can watch things they are ambivalent about.

megamoo chilli

I believe lemons and oranges were eaten at sea for vitamin c to prevent scurvy.

Andi Herr

This movie is a perfect symphony of tension and terror. Most of the (very young) actors in the movie went on to have long and successful acting careers afterwards and Herbert Grönemeyer (the war correspondent) became one of Germany's most successful musicians.

rictus grin

i like the directors cut for the more modern sound mix, but the original TV cut is my favourite watching experience

Mark McConnell

Tremendously excited to see your reaction to this amazing film.

JBK405

Because your questions about Morse code got me curious and I looked more into how other languages use Morse Code, apparently the Chinese Telegraph Code is actually still in use for a lot of Chinese government paperwork. Primarily for names and identification. According to Wikipedia, it's used in Hong Kong and Macau IDs so that a person's name will be identifiable regardless of different dialects. Likewise for business paperwork in Hong Kong. it's also in use in forms for applying for USA travel visas for the same reason. I had no idea. I've only encountered the International Morse Code in use by hobbyists and historians. Even Ham Radio has dropped the requirement to learn the code as a licensing requirement.

Mark McConnell

Two things: One, Jurgen Prochnow as the Captain is absolutely amazing in this. He should have won an Oscar. Became an instant fan and was always excited to see any new movies he was in. Two: this is one of the greatest anti war films ever made. It shows so well, the futility and waste of war. Because THESE are the BAD guys, right? Then why is it so hard to watch them die at the end? Next level storytelling/film making.

Andras Beck

This movie is next level for sure! First time I saw it around the age of 13 or 14. Jurgen Prochnow's face and the music theme residing in my head ever since.

GAB

The Cruel Sea (1953) would possibly give the best British perspective on U-boat hunting.

Robert Evans

This movie caused a serious argument in my film class. The tests were half on the book and half on the movies we watched and a question about das boot went soemthing like this: What happened when the crew were ordered to the Mediterranean? A) They were turned back at Gilbraltar B) they reached the Mediterranean port C) they were sunk trying D) This is a trick question they were never ordered to the Mediterranrean. Half the class answer 'sunk' and half answered turned back with a lot of time wasted on if a sub goes to bottom out of control is that sunk if they resurface under their own power?

TraciP

A truly exceptional movie. Thank you!

Pepijn Schmitz

You guys are conflating alphabets with languages. The English language uses the Latin alphabet. Morse code also uses the Latin alphabet, so you can use it for any language which also uses the Latin alphabet (most European languages, basically).

Pepijn Schmitz

So I guess you could also use it for any language that has a Latin transliteration (like Japanese).

Matthew Maxon

There is only 1... Type 9 German submarine left and its in Chicago at the Museum of Science and Industry. i have been on it several times and its very cool to see.

Adam

Greyhound would be a good follow up reaction. It's not as good of a film, but it's from the perspective of destroyers hunting U-boats. Plus, it stars Tom Hanks

Matt Lettieri

U571 is a little bit Hollywood but still a solid watch, especially if you like maritime combat movies. Greyhound is another really good one
