Just watched the new American warfilm Flyboys.
Not content with revising history to make America the sole allied participant in the second world war they are now busy stamping their flag all over world war 1.
I didn't know this but apparently it was all American pilots who actually flew the French planes during world war 1. ::**
Not only that but they even had black americans flying up there. ???
Hollywood tends to take a good story and make it as much about America as they can. Dont worry it wont be long before we tend the Crusades into the "Crusades for America". ;D
We love a good All American movie!! ;D
What I'm really waiting for is a good old western where the Americans portay themselves as heroically defending the native American Indians against the cruel attacks from the Americans. ;DQuote:

Yackshemesh, i eagerly await the film depicting the U.S and A's epic struggle for liberating the "eye rack" ::**
The really sad part is that there will be kids and teenagers that will see these movies and believe that that is how everything actually happened.
you mean braveheart wasn't true? :o
It WAS true, but for some reason William Wallace was depicted as half -Scottish/ half-Australian :-\
This is totally incorrect, because as far as I have been taught, William Wallace a descendant of the American conquered Australia, living in Texas as a relief worker helping the Natives with their fight against the might of the Canadians ::**
Incidentally he only moved to the British Isle when his younger Brother Rod signed for Glasgow Rangers.
Unhappy with the influx of non-Ameriacan footballers, plying their trade on Scottish soil, refusing to refer to the great sport as Soccer, William decided to take action.
The rest is history ;)
Apparantly there's also a wave of revisionist thought that wants to highlight the nastier side of William Wallace. It is alleged that he was deeply anti semitic and used to catapault flaming Jews over the Forth of Firth toward the English lines.Quote:

Apparently theres a few deleted Scenes that, historically speaking, would definately clear a few things up ;)
I thought Wallace was a cattle russeler, Ah well

Isn't Britain where all us b*stards initially came from?
If it wasn't for America than the Native Americans would still be living in peace and harmony with the land.
But we gave them better:
we destroyed their land and culture and gave them casinos and reserves..
now they get to enjoy the civil life of greed, corruption, poverty, and materialism like all the rest of us!
...we also gave them firewater and watched as they died from simple diseases....all something to look back at and laugh in my opinion
Haha you really got me laughing with that one :coolclick:Quote:

The indians had their victories too....I read of one story lately that sometime in the 1700's in North Carolina this dude got captured by these indians and they put what were essentially pinestraw needles in the guy's skin a la acupuncture and lit him on fire and as you can imagine he went up pretty fast.....that was cooooold blooooded
Lyle you filthy british descendant!! Give us mexicans back our hats!!!!!!!!!!
Whats the deal with Mexican/Spainish History...
Is it the same as British/Amrican history?
worse, the spaniards were more brutal
that is why I am in therapy right now over stuff that happened 500 years ago.
[color=blue]What the Spanish did to the Incas and the Aztecs was worse than anyone did to the North American Indians.
They still have not learned their lesson, as they have inflicted that bony waitress Penelope Cruz on the world, not to mention Julio Inglesias and Manuel the waiter. What contribution to global culture and history
