    Most realistic depiction of "Ships were wood but the men were iron" naval cannon battles ever made and it isn't close.




    Master really stands alone as the king of this genre. I can't think of another flick about age of wood and sail naval warfare that's even comparable. Seems like an underserved marketplace.
    You couldn’t sound more old, rich, and white.
    @BennyBeaver we're taking the family to London for Spring Break. Gonna take a choo choo down to Portsmouth to tour the HMS Victory.



    We've already toured the HMS Surprise in San Diego- i.e., the boat used for filming in Master.

    I cannot imagine anything scarier in war than being below decks manning a cannon and facing a broadside from 50 yards away. You had to have nerves of steel for that shit. I'd rather charge no man's land WWI style than do that.

    I did a tour of the USS CONSTITUTION in Boston. They said after the first shit was fired; you could hear, and the cabin was full of smoke. It was per craziness.

    I know @YellowSnow knows this, but I'm pretty sure most shitty Omegas cost more than a BB58. Wait for a shit ski season that you can skip out on and then use that money on the next watch.

    But what will @YellowSnow complain about then? 😉

    Yes, a Seamaster Pro or Speedmaster costs more than a Tudor BB '58. But @BleachedAnusDawg doesn't have an Omega for the running joke here.

    For the record, I'm still intrigued by the Blue Dial Pelogos.

    Right. But if I wanted an Omega I'd buy a Rolex. ;)

    Fuck the kids, buy a Rolex!
    It's never gonna happen for me @BleachedAnusDawg . Sad. I'm a loser.

    It's not just Mrs Snow's insatiable appetite for blowing money on travel. This season alone I will spend more on passes, lessons, gear than the cost of a Tudor BB '58. Add in new Mt Bikes, fly fishing gear and the White Wakanda lifestyle gets expensive.

    The best I can hope for is to buy another shitty Omega and wait to inherit my old man's Coke GMT Master II.

    @pawz where you at Pod? Queef some skiing talk outta that short brunette loving twat of yours.


    Alas, the skiing is on hold until the other side of the year. The radiator in the whip started pissing coolant all over the compartment. FML.

    This thread went from gladiator movies to being in the navy to watches.


    This thread should know when it’s conquered.

    Elizabeth the Golden Age had a decent sea battle as the Spanish Armada lost the Ryder Cup in a storm






    The Protestant Wind was a vicious wind. Proof that me and @dnc 's Engrish speaking, Protestant God is the one true God.

    The sun set on the British empire 200+ years ago Yella. Those protestant pigs still worship at the alter of their king for Christ's sake. My people were writing poetry when those heathens were still inventing depression in winter caves.

    Please.

    After seeing the new AQOTWF I’m going to respectfully disagree with you. Also, fuck fighting in any sort of jungle.
