Welcome Officers from the Army of Georgia to the Army of Northern Virginia

You will find all things grand here in the capital at Richmond! :D

I have ordered all of the finest for you all, from my personal coffers, fresh pies from Miss Miggin's Pie Shoppe, a full ceremony meal from the Ladies of the Charitable Society of Richmond & Fredericksburg, and I have ordered the Divisional Band of Hill's Light Division to play music and they say this one goes out to you all, they are joined by the Choir of St. Paul's Episcopal Church.

We will also hold a parade in your honor and cigars and brandy will be provided by the government here in Richmond.

You will find life grand, as we chase the Yankees all over the state. You will never need to worry about backwoods misery here, y'all are front and center now.

You will have new names to add to your battle flags soon!

<Salute>!

Well it didn't hold up to Gettysburg but wasn't so bad overall, we can be glad for any Civil War movie but I guess after this one who knows when someone will try it again if ever at all.
Terrible I would call this, although the first 10 seconds are hilarious:

I wouldn't say terrible.........it had its moments.

I think its terrible that Hollywood has decided not to complete the trilogy, the last book, in my humble opinion is the best of the three.

The Last Full Measure.

Ted Turner was a huge financier of it and I don't think there was enough push for the last one to get done. I like Gettysburg a lot, thought it was excellent, God & Generals, has some good parts, but many felt it was a let down in comparison to Gettysburg. It's been years since I've seen it, so maybe I'll rewatch it.....

I had both but still bought the update which is in HD and has allot of extra minutes added to both films.

Still, admittedly not great..............but its all we have.

Hollywood could make A. Lincoln Vampire Hunter...........but not " The Last Full Measure".

now that's TERRIBLE.

Update?
Was that some kind of directors cut?

Maybe a good reason together with HD to get my hands on them, been a while since I had seen them.

yes............it was a special package deal I saw in Gettysburg.......with an attached booklet. They wanted allot of money for it.

I waited till I got home and bought it on Amazon for allot less.
