I'm not sure this could ever live up to "Band of Brothers" but the companion piece to that mini-series (arguably the greatest mini-series of all-time) isn't airing until next year but here's a trailer.

On a side note, why the lack of any recent American-made WWI movies? I think Flyboys might have been the only one of late and that hardly counts. Granted, it's hard to top: Dr. Zhivago, Lawrence of Arabia, or Paths of Glory (or All Quiet on the Western Front) but you'd think that there was some sort of story to tell.

In other HBO news, they are re-airing the interesting Spanish language series "Epitafios". I'm still stunned that they didn't remake this into an English version or at least turn it into a movie. The story is pretty good although it does wander into telenovela silliness at times. The first episode features one of the more inexplicable faceoffs with a guy staring down to dogs but overall it's still a very good series and worth the watch. I'm not sure they are reairing the eps throughout the week so you might not be able to catch up with the first episode but you should be able to catch up no problem. The second episode is on HBO on this weekend (The reair runs at odd hours. My DVR is set to the HBO2 airing on Saturday nights at 11 pm)
