    "Jap's Got A Sh*tload Of Gold In His Teeth." - The Pacific (2010) #shorts #thepacific #movie #scene
    The Pacific is a 2010 American war drama miniseries produced by HBO, Playtone, and DreamWorks that premiered in the United States on March 14, 2010.
    The series is a companion piece to the 2001 miniseries Band of Brothers and focuses on the United States Marine Corps's actions in the Pacific Theater of Operations within the wider Pacific War. Whereas Band of Brothers followed the men of Easy Company of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment through the European Theater, The Pacific centers on the experiences of three Marines (Robert Leckie, Eugene Sledge, and John Basilone) who were in different regiments (1st, 5th, and 7th, respectively) of the 1st Marine Division.

    During the Battle of Peleliu in The Pacific, Snafu is seen taking gold teeth from a deceased Japanese soldier. Ultimately, his purpose is to keep the teeth as souvenirs. The practice of taking "war trophies" happened often during World War II. While a war trophy could be something fairly innocuous, such as a flag, they can also be more gruesome objects such as human body parts. In World War II, American soldiers' war trophies often consisted of the teeth or skulls of enemy soldiers. This activity was so widespread among troops that the U.S. Military banned the practice in 1942. Unfortunately, it continued to occur anyway.
    When The Pacific shows Snafu taking Japanese soldiers' gold teeth as war trophies, it says a lot about who his character is. Namely, the scene emphasizes that Snafu has little humanity left in him, and doesn't see the enemies as real people. His actions show his cruelty. As a result, Sledge is disturbed by Snafu, and tensions rise between the two characters. In a sense, Snafu is Sledge's opposite in that Sledge is horrified by the war around him whereas Snafu is actively participating in it. Overall, it is a brutal and telling scene. (Screen Rant)

      Pretty soon we'll have no need to even go to the theatre, because we can just have some internet dumbass break it down for the rest of the internet dumbasses...
      WHO NEEDS ACTORS LEARNING HOW TO CONVEY EMOTION THROUGH TONE AND FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, WHEN WE CAN JUST HAVE "MOVIEINSIGHTREAL" JUST EXPLAIN THE SUPER-OBVIOUS?!?

      In the movie SNAFU looked like a cute little Hispanic boy but in real life he looked as much like a monkey as anyone could and still be human. Compare picture in the book Pacific not the airbrushed one on Wikipedia.

      @Hunty_Mo Před 13 dny

      He CLEARLY plans on selling the gold teeth for money, not 'keeping them as war trophies.'
      Has he lost his humanity? Yes, absolutely.
      Is he harvesting human body parts as war trophies? No, absolutely not.

    The it in “Kill it.” Is the perfect confirmation of Snafu’s dismissal of his humanity.
    There’s no longer any distinguishing between people, creatures, and things. Only threats and non threats to be neutralized or not.

  • @nightlion4968
    @nightlion4968 Před 9 dny

    War is war, there are no referees running around so it never made sense to have rules in war. The goal of war is to destroy your enemy whether that is physically, psychologically, economically, ect.
    If you don’t like it then blame your politicians for starting wars they don’t fight in but benefit from blood spilled on all sides.

  • @naughtyteddy8685
    @naughtyteddy8685 Před 9 dny

    That tooth was $300 back then which today would be $5200. So hypothetically if u took 10 gold teeth out you’d have $52,000 in today’s $…….guess I’m a combat dentist

  • @scottydoesntknow6099
    @scottydoesntknow6099 Před 9 dny

    Yeah but later in the show, Sledge tries to do the same thing with a dead Japanese soldier, and snafu says he shouldn’t do it. He said something on lines of its bad luck or something. War will make you do things you never thought possible. Even still, snafu realized later on it was in bad taste, or at least he didn’t like that sledge was copying his behavior

    Many soldiers actually kept their spoon in their trouser pocket just around the knee area: This is proven in the trenches at Ulster memorial where a spoon was discovered with a bullet hole through it. The soldier who possessed the spoon lost his leg, recovered, and returned to the same place shortly after in the next war.
