All Quiet on the Western Front was brutal horror

I wanted to stop watching it a few times because my family fought in WW1 and he was never the same guy.

These movie honestly had me in near tears

Assuming you're 32 there's no way you would have ever met a WW1 vet.

My great grandfather fought in it. He died in 1956. He was a alcoholic bum, never fully returning home from the chit he saw. Just couldn't deal with the demons and died in a veterans home

I never claimed to have met him, but he is my blood and I have a picture of him.

Yes and cried watching this movie cause it makes sense how he turned out the way he did when he came back. I'll tell y'all what I know, it's not much but the movie makes it more understanding I guess.

People today have no perspective on war back then. You actually had to walk up to someone and stab them or run across a field basically hoping that the gunfire and bombs missed you. And your gun had one bullet basically. Never mind you lived in filth and just sucked it up.

And if you got hurt they would just saw your limb off and tie it up. Without anesthetic beyond doping you with morphine.

Studied military history as my minor in school and it was absolutely mind blowing what soldiers went through 100 years ago.

Fuark and those soldiers with single shot rifles and maybe a grenade that probably didn't work as often as not. Terrifying

Those wars were so expensive in terms of what they had to scale up to on a very quick timeline. I wonder how everyone was able to afford it?

"Perspective"

Is this a "I'm smarter than others" than the average dumbass type post?

What educated person doesn't already know what you just posted?

People have such short attention spans they had to have the Germans speaking in Fcuking English as none of the autistic people would watch it with subtitles. Cringe.


If you actually pay attention in the movie, Look how many times they are walking around without there rifles, In an active war zone.. I wasn't there but I am certain you didn't just set it down somewhere and go snag it when you needed it.

Thats one of the things that puts me off so hard

Watching a movie and having everyone speak English with their bad accents is so hard to watch

Just let them speak in their real life native languages

I have actually seen pictures of soldiers in trenches during WWI not with a rifle on hand. Im assuming if the machine post men saw an advance they would scream or sound the siren for soldiers to run and get their rifles.

Fraud.
z4v4's dad fought against the Nazis in WW1 using fully semi-automatic rifles, he's informed us of this on many occasions.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Ya bro. It's a tough watch just go in preparing. Like I said it hurt me in the feels cause my family was in it and I just know the toll it took on him. Poor guy just became a alcoholic bum and died in a veterans home- I think he saw things that
Just broke him.

As brutal as that must've been I think the days before guns and bombs were probably worse in terms of sheer savagery. Imagine when they fought wars with swords and catapults and stuff like that.
