The story of the Tuskegee Airmen, the first African-American pilots to fly in a combat squadron during World War II.

cool

The trailer didn't do much for me. I unno...

imma watch it for sure...but I'm not expecting much.

i love the source material, and highly recommend "the tuskegee airmen" a HBO film (found on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/wa...Rka1ZiN-Zo )

i winced when i saw lucas' name, but since he didnt direct it... will prob go see it

I'm wondering if this Lucas trying to recapture his American Graffiti days.

The trailer looks amazing.

Another re-telling..............but I'll take it.

Now this is a movie that I would definitely pay to go see. I loved the HBO one too, but I'm still going to go see this one as well.

Right. Lucas wrote the screenplay with John Ridle, and hired a Black director, Anthony Hemingway.

There have been a slew of racist comments on YouTube about the trailer that really gave me pause. To quote a lyric from Prince: " 21st century, oh what a shame, what a shame race, race still matters".

bi-racial, but SO in

First, its already been done, and done better than this.

Second, it looks like Lucas' typically awful melodramatic dialogue.

Third, unrealistic battle scenes that look and sound like Star Wars.

To sum up; no.
