WAR BIRDS, the unironic tale of a secret underground aerial combat society, is officially my new favorite upcoming project, due to the sheer ridiculousness of its concept. I reported on its inception yesterday, but now I actually have test footage of the film to show you.

It seems the premise of the movies is “War reenacters go way, way too far,” as a group of people apparently decided war these days was too boring, with all the IEDs and JDAM missile strikes, and they wanted to get back to the good ‘ol days of trench warfare and dogfights.

Once again, zero idea how they’re going to explain to local farmers why they’re restaging World War II in their corn fields, but BOMBS BULLETS PLANES EXPLOSIONS! Who cares?

Watch this ridiculousness below:

Extra Tidbit: Look out for the sequel SUB WARS, the underground, underwater combat club! Hey, at least it'd be easier to keep secret.

Suggest...
That if this does not happen try selling it to The Family Guy for a Cut away scene for Brian's book, "Faster than the Speed of Love".

Maybe they burned the entire budget on the explosions and the rights to that overplayed Linkin Park song and the actual movie will never happen...

Its a movie based on some conversation I had in fifth grade during lunch hour. 'Dude, how cool would it be if we could fuckin fly Mustangs and Messerschmidts around? Yeah, and then we get other guys on the ground fighting with like tanks and shit. Fuck you guys and your prop planes, I'll fly a jet and napalm your asses! And it'll all be totally super secret NO GIRLS ALLOW3D' Thats EXACTLY what it is.

I can already picture the dialogue:

I shot you! You're Dead
No YOU Didn't
Yes I Did!
No I'm immune to bullets!
You're cheating! Screw you guys I'm going home.

WTF
the dogfights are implausible enough...and they want to do a ground war also?? WTF? Where do they find that many dudes who want to get shot or blown up? How do you get two ARMIES with FUCKING TANKS into some field without drawing attention? Live ammo? Missles? the whole thing is incredibly retarded unless it's set in some alternate universe where stuff like this is acceptable.
