Hi all,
ORIGINAL: sprior

Watching Crimson Tide.

Simon, as submariner do you find any realism in "Crimson Tide" whatsoever or is it plain fiction?

I think they've exercised a lot of poetic license.

Is it poetic or just brazen license?

1. Lights on in bunkspaces? You'd get murdered.
2. Skippers don't initiate WSRTs, they are always externally initiated.
3. What's that bit at the beginning on the quay side? Weird.
4. Running on a submarine? Good luck with that.
5. Loud music? One crushed ghetto blaster
6. Excercise? One doc told me. "If you could analyse this like I can you wouldn't want to breathe more than you had to either.

Watching Crimson Tide.

Decent movie (not the realism, but rather the drama is good)... hate the football team, however.

I think the general agreement was that the Kirby Silver Surfer was the only true Silver Surfer.

Perhaps not but there seems to be a strong correlation. One must confess to some other non-Commonwealth pwnee's such as Boney and Turkey, so it may not be definitive. [:'(]

Morning tithe... Talking about being part of a Commonwealth, it is a real pain in the B#%**! being part of the British one at the moment. Turn Sky TV on (Australia and New Zealand) at present, and all you get is the damn wedding. Now I know even nowadays there a some Royalists left in NZ, but not enough to have this wedding rammed down our throat. [:-]

I'm guessing this is so no one has to see what goes on there. [:'(]

proper way to watch this movie is to state loudly whenever someone comes into the room "They call me Deacon Blue", then continually mumble same barely audibly until they leave the room...
