Holy Shit...a new Band of Brothers

So I wrote about how Showtime might be overtaking HBO....but I may have spoken too soon....

HBO is currently in production for a follow-up to the original Band of Brothers.  It will focus on the Pacific theatre of World War 2, and is based on 2 books written by Marines that found in the Pacific.

Here's the kicker....according to wikipedia, The Pacific will be 10 parts (like BoB) and has a reported $200 million budget.  ridiculous.....ridiculously amazing
