It is kind of sad how there wasn't a big World War 2 TV show that was of HBO quality in the mid to late 2010s

It looks like something we should have gotten during the 2015-2018 time period.



It looks like it was supposed to be made in 2014.

What has kept the talented people who made shows and movies like "Apollo 13", "Saving Private Ryan", "From the Earth to the Moon", "Band of Brothers", and "The Pacific" into a reality from giving an amazing historical show during the mid to late 2010s?

Were computer generated graphics not as advanced?


Was society too obsessed with "Game of Thrones" and "Reality" TV as well as comic book superheroes?


I say that as someone who greatly enjoyed Game of Thrones and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

I think it is a shame that the talents of the people who gave us Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg historical shows and movies in the late 90s and 2000s were not utilized during the 2012-2018 time period.

If the 2010s had been more optimistic would we have shows that celebrated our WW2 victories and imagined a humanity having a optimistic future in space rather than dystopian shows?

If you want to read an amazing story and it would make a great movie read "Fighter Pilot' it's about the life of Robin Olds a USAF fighter pilot whose career spanned WW II, Vietnam and commandant of the USAF Academy. Written by his daughter from her dads memoirs. Olds was an air ace in WW II and Vietnam. married to a Hollywood star and rose to the rank of general. Why a movie of his life has not been made is a shame.
