If Saving Private Ryan was a Russian film

Ever wondered what Saving Private Ryan would have looked like if it was set on the eastern front? Neither had we, until today. Anyway, thanks to War Thunder for sponsoring this one, check it out here: playwt.link/squire

We were going to recreate the final stand scene from Ryan in this video, but couldn't quite book a real Tiger tank on this occasion. We felt it'd be a cheap cop out to do it without a real one. What would you have us do? Badly tart up a T34 to look like one? I think not. No way! Anyway, cheers to War Thunder for sponsoring this, go play it: playwt.link/squire

This video kinda reminds me an idea I had with my chumps while chilling - A "Saving Private Ivan" movie that would be about a squad of prisoners recruited by the Wagner's group that would get their parole from their sentences in prison by doing a special mission. And the mission would be for them to go behind the enemy line to find titular Private Ivan which they would have to smash his head with a hammer for desertion :P

The production value goes up every video. Amazing work!
Much better then the prequel "boiling bombadier bryan". Worst part is they weren't even trying to boil him, just spilled some tea. The bombadier's position was like a massive soup bowl. The most heroic part was the pilots who took special care not to spill a drop.
Saving Private Ivan? Is Ivan better than Ryan or is Ivan worse than Ryan at war? 🧐
the title should be from Saving Private Ryan to Shooting Private Ivan
They are still shooting themselves in the foot to this day.
