Meet the boys of Easy Company

Jan 07, 2010 01:22

I've spent the last few weeks rewatching the whole of Band of Brothers in 720p HD (unfff) and capping the shit out of it in preparation for what may be an epic picspam if I ever get my act together. I really have spent far too many waking hours on this project, but you know, it's really not hard on the eyes, so I haven't exactly minded. ;) I was ( Read more... )

I've only watched a few episodes of BoB, but the one thing I always remember is that one lieutenant (Speirs, I think?) running across the town right in front of the German tanks to deliver a message...then running back.

sdlfkjlsdkf yes. I'll tell you a sekrit - that shot of Lip falling in love with his husband? That's when he watches Speirs do THAT. He knows Speirs is nuts but he just can't help but fall ass over teakettle because he's made of so much win. :D An excellent memory to take with you, hee.

YOU MADE MY NIGHT WITH THIS CAP. DAMIAN LEWIS I LOVE YOU.

BLESS YOU, ANNE. *loves*

I finally finished downloading the series tonight! I have like no room on my computer anymore, but I don't care. I have Winters! Nix! Lip! Spiers! Doc Roe! They're mine! All mine!

Mine is an evil laugh. ;)

I'm incredibly jealous of his wife, Helen, because she gets to look at THOSE GORGEOUS BABY BLUES. *melts*

Yay! I'm going to watch this soon! And I may need to come back to this post for reference, because I am so faceblind. XD Can't wait!

exsequar January 7 2010, 07:36:05 UTC

Yaaaay! I definitely think you could benefit from this. :D I tried deliberately to get different caps with them in different conditions - with and without helmet, dirty and clean, shaven and bearded, etc, because they do change a lot through the series and I wanted to help identification as much as possible! I can't WAIT for you to sink your teeth in!

My 10th grade English teacher had us watch a couple episodes and I saw several during a marathon on the History Channel, I think. I plan to download it soon so I can properly squee over it.

I'm glad they're making a miniseries about the Pacific front, and I'm hoping they will make a miniseries that focuses on the 442nd Infantry.

I still can't get over the fact Endless Mike (from The Adventures of Pete & Pete) is in this miniseries.

Ooooo, if you ever want to get together for a watching party, I am SO DOWN WITH THAT. I can also give you my hires copies if you have somewhere to keep them! It's VERY worth it, especially with a show with such great cinematography. We need to hang out soon anyhow! I'm back in school but I can always do coffee on a weekend or we could hang out at one of our apartments!

I'm definitely looking forward to the Pacific one, though it has a lot to live up to and sounds like it'll be a totally different format.

Awwwww, LUZ! I find it hilarious that you remember him from that. I've never heard of it before but it looks adorable. :D Luz is deeply precious.

I would love to have one. I got a 500GB external hard drive for Christmas and have only used about 40GB of it so far. LOL! We totally should get coffee again. I'm going to be on campus a lot this semester both on the weekend and during the week so I'm sure we can figure this out easily.

I have a pretty good memory for these trivial things. XD You've never watched that show before? O_O

*sigh* I love Band of Brothers but I find it incredibly hard to rewatch. Parts of it are just soooo gutwrenching.

exsequar January 7 2010, 17:41:28 UTC

It's very painful, but I have the ability to experience something painful and then just compartmentalize it away as I enjoy the rest of it. Believe me, The Breaking Point in particular had me in tears on my rewatch, but I still manage to package that pain away and enjoy the rest. I think it helps that they chose (purposefully, obviously) to focus the most on the men who made it through the whole war - in this spam I think only 2 die, though more are wounded. So I'm okay with getting emotionally attached to them. IDK. I do understand where you're coming from though.
