Watched "Red Cliff" on Netflix a couple nights ago.  Godam that's a great movie.  "Three Kingdoms" was also pretty good, but not as epic as "Red Cliff".  100% badass.
They show alot of battlefield strategy, counter-tactics and trickery, etc.  The combat action is also done very well.  At least they weren't flying thru the air - lol.

As for the historical accuracy I really have no clue.  My Chinese military history knowledge sucks balls.


Well it's a epic movie but not that realistic seeing a guy fly 30 feet away from a spear swing.

Oooh, looks sweet.  I especially like the bare headbutt against the helmet.  :mrgreen:  Reminds me of when I hit bare-headed ppl with my 2h and they live - heh.

All jokes aside though this does look badass.  Think it's gonna be about the Ottoman Turks conquering Constantinople and the end of the Byzantine Empire.

Whoa. That "mace in yer face" shot looks great.

I can already see how biased they'll make this, though.

Let's hope I'm not right, and it'll be a decent movie. And someone subs it in english.

Looking forward to that movie. I read Roger Crowley's book about the siege and fall of Constantinople and initially recognised the scene where the Turks dragged their ships over land.

P.S. I expect it to be very biased, too, but it's hard to find movies about such topics ("national founding stories") which are not...

fall of Constantinople
It's not fall of Constantinople it is Rise of Istanbul instead.

well its totally about being a nation , i mean crowded nation.Like only Istanbul's population is more than many countries population on EU.So people share same culture and propaganda style if they want to live with other 15 milion people =) Its like this in turkey.
