What DVD's are we Watching?

I'm sure there's a Netflix thread somewhere... who cares. My streaming viewing and my local dvd or vhs viewing blur together. We watch what we want to watch. And we watch stuff every day. Anyhow, I recently saw a film that started out (eyeroll) kinda dumb, and then picked up dramatically (not that it was a drama, just the quality of the movie improved). I'm reminded of it because of a couple recent posts in the Cool Weapons thread.

I would recommend "Final Countdown". It stars Kirk Douglas and Martin Sheen. The premise is this: What would happen if a US Navy aircraft carrier (USS Nimitz, played by herself) was off the coast of Hawaii on December 6th, 1941?

There's LOTS of on board and in air footage of some real warfare hardware. If you like that kind of stuff, you should watch this film.
