New Dad's Army trailer

[Everest]

Don't get the 1944 reference? Surely they must have done some basic research into the forming of the Home Guard?

It's set in the years after the original

 

[Stat Brother]

Is it in 3D?

I actually saw a very rough edit of this film in Crawley Cineworld. Signed up for a focus group at a previous visit, not knowing what the film would be. It's a pretty good effort all in all.

Reggie Perrin had a great cast 2nd time around but, although not terrible, it was terrible compared with the original.

 

[Tarpon]

"The year is 1944 - on the brink of defeat..."

Er, I rather think we'd turned the corner by then and the Hun was on the run.

It's a gag.

 

[Juan Albion]

It's a gag.

In what way?

 

[Tarpon]

In what way?

I just assumed it was a piss take of the relative level of threat by that date for those that would clock it and for those that didn't it still works because they couldn't repel any threat anyway. Or not. I dunno.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Looks a good bit if fun. Will enjoy watching it.

 

[HantsSeagull]

probably won't live up to the original but the trailer made me giggle and thats a great cast

Think you're right....

 

[jimbob5]

Think you're right....

I don't buy it.

 

[blue'n'white]

A film of a group of people trying (not terribly well IMO) to pretend to be other people who were pretending to be people from the 1940s
What I've seen of it isn't very good - I would have preferred them to have not tried to emulate the originals but to have done a totally new film

 

[Beach Hut]

Sgt Wilson is the greatest sitcom character there has ever been in my view.

I think a lot of thought on the castings will make this very good to watch.
