The 1930 film was banned in Germany by the Nazis when they came to power. Ironic that Germany has now done a remake. I actually prefer the TV version that was done in 1979 (the uncut version). This new one will probably have Saving Private Ryan level gore.

Perhaps they can come out with a lovingly sanitized version for you, complete with a few bunnies and songbirds.

What do you think war is? Ever read up on what the Somme or that bloodbath around Verdun (or, more recently, Peleliu, Iwo, Okinawa, and Aachen) was like?

Sorry, Bub - but we have never, ever seen a movie that depicts the real mayhem and murder of the real thing. Even Saving Private Ryan was reduced scale for the general audience.
