#between speirs's nihilism and ack ack's optimism
Text
it kinda kills me that the "we were all scared" speech in band of brothers (the more heartwarming show) is about being a perfect killing machine and accepting the fact that you're already dead, while the "we're all afraid" speech in the pacific (the more brutal show) is about being there for your fellow soldiers and believing in the goodness of what you fight for.
#how did spielberg do that shit#created the perfect dichotomy#it's like the two shows became yin and yang in those moments#between speirs's nihilism and ack ack's optimism#there's just so many ways you could interpret that#hbo war#hbowardaily#the pacific#ronald speirs#band of brothers#bofb#easy company#bob#hbowar#andrew haldane#andy haldane#ack ack haldane#scott gibson#matthew settle#speirton#andyeddie#hilldane
