Midway New Trailer Roland Emmerich Remakes ‘That Michael Bay Film’

The master of destruction, what next for Roland Emmerich? World War 2 and Midway. Today Lionsgate have released the Second UK Trailer. Has  he remade ‘that Michael Bay Film’…Pearl Harbour!

Don’t get us wrong we love Emmerich and his appetite for destruction. You could say this is one of his very few ‘grounded’ films, based on a true story. So was Pearl Harbour and we all know what Bay done to that historical battle.

World War 2 is probably the most popular war within the genre. Based on the real life story of the Battle Of Midway which saw the Americans take on the Japanese Imperial Army on water and in the air. Regarded as the turning point of the war in the Pacific, like Normandy closer to home.

It seems this is a passion project for Emmerich. Here’s hoping he does give the respect the men and women who died in the battle deserve.
