There are reports that a new (and the first official) ‘Pacific’ trailer has been shown on HBO just before the start of TRUE BLOOD, an HBO TV series. We have been unable to find any recordings of the trailer on the internet. If you know of any, please contact us!
International TV networks have begun to purchase HBO’s The Pacific for a March 2010 release. A total of 10 episodes at 60minutes each will be shown on all the major networks ranging from the UK, to Germany, Asia, Austria, Switzerland and beyond. HBO billed the production as, “the biggest thing HBO has ever done” but also “the biggest production in the history of television,” given the scale and scope of the miniseries. It’s like making 10 major movies at once.
Tom Hanks, executive producer of “Pacific” was recently interviewed by EMPIRE magazine about his upcoming films. During the interview Hanks mentioned the following about “Pacific”:
On The Pacific War, his HBO series that’s a spiritual sequel to Band of Brothers, Hanks said, ”That’s having its score finalised. I think it’s going to be March 2010. We are able to visit the home front on this one and we’re able to show the guys before the War and after. We show some of the most vicious stuff I’ve ever seen on film – because it has to be.”

Here are two news clips taken from the production in Melbourne.
Here are some pictures taken from the set, however, these are not new. They were posted elsewhere on the web a few months ago, but I thought I’d post a link here in case you haven’t seen them. The level of detail in the costumes and makeup are incredible! Click here to view.

Hey folks,
Sorry for the long delay in getting this website updated. We are back in action. The tv series is coming and it needs a working fansite! Stick around, we’ll be updating the website in the coming days. Yea, I know…the forum is broken, too. As Gunny would say, “get ‘er din, Maggot!”
