If they seriously tried to make WW2 a mass-media franchise thing, I'd fully expect some kind of awful clean wehrmacht series before they made anything about the Soviets.

100%. A story about one of the Swing Kids who got drafted into the SS but feels guilty about all the things he sees and does and continues to do, and sometimes helps a cute Jewish girl hide/escape...until she's found and SA'd by the Soviets for some reason

Yo does this mean we're gonna get another bad ass rootin' tootin' call a dooty WWII shooter again?

The plot is that you are the ultimate American patriot on a secret mission deep in Soviet territory as you attempt to take out the true mastermind of the Holocaust, Joseph Stalin.

In an introductory cutscene we see the signing of the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. Molotov slides a folder over to Ribbentrop and inside it there is document titled "Holocaust Plan-The Final Solution by Karl Marx and edited by Joseph Stalin" Ribbentrop cries as he reads the contents of the folder and states that Hitler could never go through with such a demonic plan. Molotov holds a gun to his head and lets him know he can send the document directly to Hitler with his blood splattered all over it if he'd like. Ribbentrop walks away in shambles.

Really got to pirate that some day, same with the CIA one just for the "bad" ending (more like based ending) where you break free from your MK ULTRA brainwashing and kill your handlers before nukingamerikkka

There's finally going to be a movie about the Battle of Castle Itter but they'll rewrite the SS to be Soviets.

Wasn't that basically the History Channel, or was that the Military History Channel? That basically did exactly that for the 2010s?

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 12 points 9 months ago

Not quite. Band of Brothers was more of a narrative focused show based on a book.

The History Channel stuff started as documentaries, but quickly went off the rails and started focusing on Wunderwaffe shit and nazi mysticism - all still in the "documentary" genre.

Oh no I wasn't talking about Bob the show but the channels back in the day that would feature them.

Basically what you wrote about the shitstory channel
