Well all I can say is I applaude Mr. Lucas and I for one WILL be going to the cinema to watch this!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-16525977I just pray he doesn't do a prequel as badly as he did with Star Wars!

Mustangs, P-40s, B-17s, Bf-109s, Me-262s, what is not to like? HOWEVER I am getting sick of people (including Lucas himself) saying this is the first moving portraying the all Black fighter squadron. This is not true at all, look up Tuskegee Airmen, another awesome movie I might add!

Tuskagee is an EXCELLENT film! I think often overlooked in favour of more traditional fair in the genre all the "big battle" epics.

Tuskagee is a terrific film! I was priveleged to meet two of the pilots during a color guard last year in Half Moon Bay honoring their heroics.
Red Tails looks like it should be amazing as well. Can't wait to see it!

This movie has a great potential to be in the top 5 movies of the year but it either has too have 2 things.
1. A great storyline (almost definitely)
2. It should also focus on the planes. e.g No 30g turns by ro make it more dramatic.
It's nice to see a movie that is focused on blacks during the war.
Good luck Lucas films.
I will watch it while my family will be watching "underworld".

The movie looks awesome, but they put dubstep in the commercial... So I'm suspicious.

Saw the movie last night, at a grand premiere full of CAF members in Minneapolis. It was better than I expected. All of the flying looked very real, especially knowing there were no real aircraft used. My only complaint was having the story of the airmen get watered down slightly by the typical Hollywood need to have a love interest, and conflict between characters. I think it lost a little bit there.
