Happy 23rd February!

[Serb]

Trotsky built the Red Army and led it to victory over the Whites!

Yeah, and it's a shame you don't know the date when he built it.

Feb. 23 1918 - the birthday of the Red Army and a state holiday of the modern Russia.

A video of Russian imperialism in the Caucuses.

One of my college English professors had been a bodyguard for Trotsky when he was in Mexico. That's a lousy way to lose your job.

Well, perhaps Trotsky would have live a little bit longer, if hired for the job some real bodyguards instead of English teachers.

Actually, it's a great war drama (not a crappy fairy tale like Black Hawk Down)based upon true events.


Oh, btw, I'm glad to see you too.

[Dinner]

Not even the google has heard of gates of thunder. Is that the movie name?

[Serb]

Is that movie available with English subtitles? I'd watch it but recognizing one word in ten sucks

The movie called The Storm Gate (Grozovye vorota).

Some links to DVD with English subtitles:

Sire you can try to download it here but I'm not sure it has subtitles.

Nope. Its international name is The Storm Gate (Grozovye Vorota in Russian).

It must not be a good seller because several meta torrent search sites turn up nada.

Trotsky built the Red Army and led it to victory over the Whites!

And now greasy-haired liberal arts majors hail him as their hero.

[Dinner]

So true.

Well, if you treat my opinion low, you can read some comments about the movie at youtube. I read only several pages out of 289 comments total, but found such gems as:
"One mother f*cking good russian film. "

"Amazing Movie. Very Sad. But Amazing none the less. "

"russian band of brothers..even though i barely understood russian i was touched by this movie "

"I don't care who they are, as long as they're killing muslim terrorists. I heartily enjoyed seeing them slaughter the rug kneelers. Huzzah to the Russkies! ".

And my favorite:
"F*CKING AWESOME. "

It's not as if I exactly care about military stuff . . . sez the guy building a Soviet Sherman tank is his bathroom.
