As we mentioned on The KVNU Movie Show a few weeks back, one of the best films to never hit a cineplex is HBO’s WW II D-Day to V-Day saga Band of Brothers– a 10-part series based on the late Steven Ambrose’s book of the same name. It’s companion piece, The Pacific (covering the Marines WW II Pacific theater and the fight against Japan), has been swirling in rumor and production ever since. Thankfully, production has wrapped up and we’re finally going to be treated to the Tom Hanks/Steven Spielberg co-produced mini-series on HBO in 2010.
The trailer is what you’d expect– shooting, explosions, moments of humanity and voice-over introspection ala Terrence Malick’s The Thin Red Line–, but I’m just excited it’s finally going to debut in my lifetime.
If you’ve been watching HBO, you’ve probably seen this. If you don’t have HBO, here you go.
5 comments On The Pacific Trailer. Finally.
Oh baby. If this is 1/10 of the radical-ness of Band of Brothers, it’ll be solid gold. Looks like it even has some hooter scenes thrown in for good measure. Very nice!

This one can’t come fast enough. I anticipate weekly man-nights with the onset of 2010.
Yeah, one of you should subscribe to HBO so we can see this. Muhahahahahahaha! Maybe it will be me, since I can’t seem to get enough of Bikini Pirates and the softcore shenanigans of late night cable.
Man, if it’s anything like BOB, it will be FREAKING AMAZING… I’m stoked.
