    Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World




    I've always sort of pictured @RaceBannon as the HOLD FAST guy. He's still alive. Holding fast works I guess.

    Master and Commander made you feel like you were on the ship. Imagining what that would have been like.

    Das Boot is really the only other naval warfare film to me that really made you feel like you were on the ship.
    The depth charge sequences were straight up pulse pounding.

    edit: Top Gun made me feel like I was there.

    @RaceBannon you may already be aware but for the price of admission to the Star of India, you can also venture on the Master and Commander ship used in the movie. I took the kids there back in 2019 to do what I did as a kid.

    Hold Fast is what @swaye used to tell all the young sea-mens.




    Any of you guys take advantage of the Mighty Mo tours when it was in Bremerton? To walk where the Japs surrendered was pretty cool for a kid. And we called them Japs back then too. And Krauts.

    I've read about half of the Patrick O'Brian Aubrey-Maturin books, enjoyed them all. Couldn't vote for ROTK since it was too long, bloated, oh look Peter Jackson wants to play army, and even without the Scouring of the Shire there were still too many endings. Sappy Elrond still pisses me off nearly 20 years later

    Lord of The Rings: The Return of the King
    This was easily the best film of the trilogy

    Come on! Legolas and Aragon did some damn fine posing and the giant elephants and ghosts were so scary but cute too!

    I've driven off the stern of the MO and NJ in a ski boat back in the late 90s when they were still at Bremerton. More on this in the history bored I think.
