A fire that broke out on a secret Russian submarine has killed
14 sailors
President Vladimir Putin said
seven captains of the first rank
and two Heroes of Russia have died.
“This is a great loss”, Putin said.
So, fuck the other five that died?

Das Boot is hands down the best submarine movie ever made.

Comparing those two to each other is like comparing "Blazing Saddles" to "Unforgiven".

I totally disagree with your analogy. The former are big Studio productions with major stars showing them living in virtual luxury (submarine wise). Das Boot showed the reality. If I'm not mistaken, Das Boot is the only submarine film ever nominated for "Best Film" Oscar and for good reason.

No, both "Down Periscope" and "Blazing Saddles" were farces. The other 2 movies were serious dramas.

Holy Crap. No Das Boot on Netflix or Amazon, but available on youtube- free it says. I'll reserve judgement on that depending on the ad frequency.

So you passed judgment on "Down Periscope" without ever having seen it. Got it.

The comparison is closer to Star Wars and Space balls.
