I didn't know a flare gun could become a "rocket launcher" and blow up a helicopter lmao
same same
It sure can...if the script calls for it. 😂😂😂
yet your not concerned how they were able to go back in time hehehehe
yep altho flares generate intense heat and can ignite flammable materials, potentially causing a fire onboard the helicopter. once a person shoots the flare gun inside the helicopter tho. that fire could rapidly spread in the confined space of the aircraft, leading to loss of control and potentially a crash... in this case, BOOMBASTIC 💥🔥💨
This was before MacGyver. Mac used a flare gun as a rocket launcher to escape with a down fighter pilot from big guys on a high cliff.
Love how they called the helicopter landing on the island around 10:30 a plane and then they called a flare gun a rocket launcher
I mean, apparently that flare gun was a rocket launcher cause it was fired and caused the whole thing to explode... for some reason.
@@bibby659 you know why ? because its the same flare gun as the pocket mortar
Listen to the voice over, it is AI.

I saw this film in the theater when it came out. I wish it would come on TV more often. I rarely see it. I think a remake of it would be great. With today's technology, they could make it look awesome. Even better, would be a twist ending. Have the Aircraft Carrier stop the Pear Harbour Attack. Then return to present day and show the changes that took place. That would be too cool!
Modern military vs old militaries is always a fun watch
and to think the nimitz herself is almost 50 year old now and look at all the different types of jets and planes onboard. now they have like 3 different types.
Too bad we practically got none of the actual old vs new military stuff. We got 1 "Dog fight" and that was it.
@@bibby659 well at least it was real and not cgi.
then you should watch this "Gate: Jieitai Kano Chi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri" when medieval meets modern military
More often painful to watch, since most directors have no clue how weapon actually works
We need a modern movie like this but with actual combat
it will change history and not coming back to where they are
That'll be the great thing about it. A time travel movie in 'now' modern times, about an event that didn't happen (at least to us it didn't happen). Of course involving the navy again. and the outcome of that event is todays moden life as we see it
There is a novel series, "Axis of Time". An entire international armada from the year 2021, fighting the global war on terror, inexplicably get sent to 1942 and screw up the battle of Midway.
So right
Fun Fact: The Nimitz had nuclear weapons in 1980. So a bunch of nukes were sent back in the film.
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid.
Mine too I must watch it again
Can somebody tell me the name of the movie please and thank you?
@@imtheboss7422 "The Final Countdown" 1980 film.
Yeah! This movie was actually my introduction to the F-14, saw it many years before I ever saw Top Gun.
Loved this movie! Saw it first at a drive-in (French's Forrest in Sydney, after a day at the beach in Mona Vale), then many times on recorded VHS.
In this movie, there was a near crash of the F-14 during the Zero fighter scene. You see the F-14 dive toward the water with full afterburner. The F-14 nearly stalled and had to nose down to regain control ..
?? f14 pulls down, and nearly stalls ??? your comment doesnt make sence
What’s the movie name called
@@LuisSantos-hu6gy He's saying that the F-14 had to pitch down to avoid stalling?? Makes perfect sense.
The maneuver was intentional (i.e. planned). The camera zoomed in on that point to make it look like he was getting too close to the water. Higher ups watching a screening asked the pilot how low they went to which the pilot responded, "500 feet, sir", ... which was okay with the higher ups.
@@christalbot210well that’s not what the extended dvd interview report… but sure… you do you…
The Final Countdown proves one thing.
Certain events in history can never be changed. They are written in stone.
lets think what would have happened if they did stop the attack with a pre,emptive strike
sail into pearl harbour announce what they done
no day of infamy could the US go to war?
would the Amercian public have supported (and paid) for the war?
US has no money to develop nukes
soviet union stop at the Atlantic coast goes sunbathing on the costa's
the ussr would have never made it into germany without the allies help. Probably never even been able to defend their homeland as due to the lend-lease agreement they managed to scrounge up enough bullets (almost for everyone) and tanks also logistics vehicles such as trucks to defend and then retaliate @@philiprice7875
@@philiprice7875 There is Japanese novel Zipang. Japanese destroyer went back to time, just before Battle of Midway. Modern Japanese destroyer tried to avoid the battle and didn't want to change course of war. But american carrier Wasp intercepted them and sent 80 planes to destroy this 'new model of' imperial japanese navy. Cornered modern japanese destroyer destroyed attacking planes and quickly retaliated, sinking Wasp in the process. Problem is after the fight it was really hard to replace depleting ammo and supplies.
Possibly.
Kind of like that original Star Trek episode City on the Edge of Forever. In that story, one person's alternate fate changed the course of the U.S. entering the war and the Nazis prevail as a result.
Seizing a rocket launcher... LOL!
Awesome movie.
Watched it so many times
One of my favorites.
It was a fun movie actually.
Such a fantastic underrated movie.
OH trust me it's amazing
I saw & loved this film in 1979-80! It's funny how fast time goes! More time has passed since this picture was
made than the 1941 attack, to this film's making! p.s. My uncle, Army Pvt. Ken Cooke, Hickham Field & great
uncle, Navy Chief Ed Gaudet, USS Tennessee, were both Pearl Harbor Survivors!
Great Movie. I have it on DVD and have watched it a million times.
I finally discovered my new favorite movie thank you for sharing Spoiler Lab 👍
Final Countdown was a cool movie!!
this was one of the best what ifs movies ever....i read alot of time travel littiture and such but this one move summed it up well and truely.
One of my favorite lines in any movie is, "So, all we have to sail through some storm at sea and BINGO! We're suddenly much more clever than Einstein. "
Tesla was far more intelligent than Einstein... he actually, made fun of his theory of relativity.
This was one of my favourite films when I was a kid
Enlisted always the last to know anything. Good movie one I like rewatching. Would love to see a follow up movie on the two that got left behind and what they all changed.
Final countdown or how I learned to love the F-14 Tomcat.
Before Tom Cruise as Mavrick
Yeah! Saw this one many years before I ever saw Top Gun. Probably the same amount of time from 1980-1986.
Well this and Robotech veritech fighters/robots
Looks like a great film, love the concept of time travel.
I highly recommend it. It was well done for it's time. And the concept is timeless (pun intended.)
Great film Thank you for reshowing it I think that this was the First time a film crew was allowed on to an active Front Line War ship I THINK ! ?
One of my favorites. This movie was the origin of the idea for Top Gun. The Navy was on board with the whole production. I noticed a few years later the movie Philadelphia Experiment had a similar theme. If you combine the two movies they actually overlap. One scene from that movie shows a portal through time that the sailor is traveling and it's moving. He shuts down the source but the ship materialized some place else. I figured that the Nimitz encountered the same portal. Same time frame. All in all the miniseries The Triangle covers the same territory years later.
I was onboard when this movie was made. I managed to get a small part during the scene in CIC.
Yes, I remember the movie! Cool !
The film is good but I got dissapointed because I was expecting an epic battle between the f14s, more advanced but outnumbered, against the Japanese forces, less advanced but in greater numbers.
0:27 damn that’s a nice badass Aircraft Carrier
If I be traveling back to that time I would be a trillionaire today…
Watched in cinema in Orange California when came out. Was State of the art back then.
This was a great movie.
While the story and characters were not the best, this was a wonderful movie for Grumman, USN and aerospace enthusiasts because of the scenes with the combat aircraft of the day. My father worked for Grumman Aerospace for 35 years and was a principal member of the LEM design team, focusing on the landing gear and the creation of the Lunar Surface Sensing Probe (affectionately called the "lunar curb feeler" at our home). The musical score by John Scott is outstanding, and continues to be one of the most under-rated aspects of the film.
Fun film fact: During the sequence in which a F-14 engages one of the Japanese Zero fighters, the F-14 pilot had to throttle down to match speed and almost stalled his aircraft- and the seemingly dramatic pull-up recovery about 100 feet above the surface was quite real and captured on film. Link: czcams.com/video/nzMiKjzFbOg/video.html
Another fun fact.... There was an actual inflight emergency involving an A-7 while filming.... The barricade scene was REAL.
Great movie
I'd be far more interested in how Yelland's debriefing with the navy top brass went.
I like this movie. I watch it every time I see it’s on TV. The movie never explained what caused the storm that caused the time travel. I always figured it was a freak event like the Bermuda Triangle.
Love this movie thanks
Good Movie Glad I've Got It on DVD.
Stuck on a desert island with Katharine Ross. I'd go back in time for that. ;O)
The time from WWII to this movie is LESS than the movie to the Present Day. Meaning Todays Navy would make the 80's Navy look OLD.
I have seen this movie before but I haven't seen it in a long time
They actually released it on Blu-ray. I know, because I have it.
Same 😢
I understand Japan is a great NATO ally to day. But if time travel happened yes support our Navy no matter what time period it is.
Skirting the public and capitalizing on business venture one could amass sizeable fortune on the way into the 21st century .. .
Those were some big name actors. 😂
I think they should remake it, too good a premise to pass up
Nice.
Ahh what wanderful nam that is 0:54
I still loved this this movie
Perfect movie one of the best of all time. The soundtrack is also awesome. I wish for a remake or a sequel.
Sequel. Have Martin Sheen's character working for a secret government agency after their encounter, trying to reproduce the conditions of the storm in a lab and succeeding.
Great idea. Watched it when I was younger, but now I realize that the aircraft carrier would be overwhelmed by fighters/dive bombers and eventually run out of ammo against the air craft. So would all the jet’s
Loved the movie a true classic
they should remake this movie, i was about 11 years old when i first see it, then a few years later the philadelphia experiment was released with a similar story
there was similar to this but Japanese Destroyer jds mirai (Zipang 2004)
No remake. Sequel!
Loved this film as a kid
nice
An interference would have altered the timeline and you have no idea what that could have done. Going back to 1980 would be way different than when you left it. You may not have even been born.
I really enjoy this movie. Sadly it was underated and the title remembered as the title of a song by Europe in the 80's. Always wondered it they actually got the fight the Japanese fleet , Undoubtably they would have won but also changed. It would likely be that a number of the crew would disappear due to the change in history. In a way it did. Commander Owens would have used his knowledge to help in WW2. With the knowledge of future he would have lots of oppurtunities to get wealthy. They would have watched over lasky life and career until he got back. Laurel was probably relieved that Charlie would still be alive after 40 years.
Good watch.
That movie is the reason I joined the Navy! Wow
Prime Directive still applies.
to quote a certain captain:
"To hell with the Temporal Prime Directive" 😄
Alii laddy but she could have been the enterprise cv 68.
imagine the look on the zero,s pilots faces seeing the modern fighter jets !
I'm governed by the potential Temporal paradox. By altering the past could have unintentional consequences to the time. So quoting Doctor Emmett Brown, BTTF.
But then Captain Yelland thought, "What the hell..."
watch this way back and it never gets old....we need isekai movies i think these guys started the whole isekai genre
Isekai was started by Mark Twain
Going to the past to prevent a war would likely set us back decades technologically. Wars are major contributors to new tech as they forces us to innovate. Almost all major tech leaps we've had are link to a war.
As a decorated captain of IJN in world of warship. I agree w/ this movie.
Really? I am a decorated Kriegsmarine Captain in War thunder
I am a decorated human
POV: Warthunder custom battles
Im surprised no one screamed "Aliens!!!!!!!!!!!"
The super carrier did NOT end up in the midst of WWII. Japan has not yet attacked Pearl Harbor.
It did end up in WWII, because Europe is at war with Germany isn’t it? Please correct me if I’m wrong.
It ended up 2 years into WWII. Start of the war was 1st of September 1939. Pearl harbor was 7th december 1941
9 👍's up S Lab thank you for sharing 😅
Love this movie old school and the idea of what if it could happen? And that old classic time butterfly effect if you change 1 thing that it can change everything loved this movie that much i managed to get a original movie poster of this movie wish they did another
the present is built on the past. Attempting to change past events is not possible
If it is, then any future one might return to would be somewhat different to the timeline we originated in.
to travel back in time you need to collect, store enough energy to re-set the entire UNIVERSE
your not going to do that with a kilo of plutonium
Good premise. If the Nimitz had attacked the Japanese fleet the attack on PH wouldn't have happened, the US wouldn't have joined WWII and the Axis powers may have won the war. All in allowing the attack on PH was the winning move.
I loved this movie a
39 years between 1941 and 1980 when the film was made. Now it’s 44 years between 1980 and 2024. Kind of funny, especially when they regarded it a big deal in the movie.
Quite a good recap. Could have been a bit shorter thou.
3:51 same photos.
interesting
Be good to remake this now and change the outcome.
For a 44 year old film it's pretty good.
Meteorological Officer " Black Cloud" 😂😂😂😂.
Modem?
Modern as of 1980.... But that was over 40 years ago....
The only fixed wing still in service from back then were the Hawkeyes and Greyhounds!!!!!
Be better if you had titled it "Nuclear carrier travels 40 years" or something similar
Plot twist the Japanese soldier is thrusted into the future where he finds himself in Vietnam as a Colonel who holds US service members hostage. He would have had a good life but he crossed paths with Chuck Norris.....
I would NOT change anything about the attack on Pearl Harbor because of the saying that if you change ONE thing in the past, then you WILL change the entire future too.
I would like to meet my real parents whom they both they are. And meeting my two foster parents and correcting my mistakes. Or just leave it like before. Its a choice i should think of. I rather meet my two foster parents and give all due respect and love for both of them. And others will follow. 😊
5:40 That Yacht must be using Nitroglycerin as fuel.
That 1 carrier can take out the entire fleets of the us and Japan combined lol
I don't think so. there was no satellite these modern ships would be useless
The change in who dies and who survives alone would echo down through time if they stopped the Japanese attack. People would appear, others disappear on the Nimitz. Imagine if a sailor who would have died at Pearl Harbor goes on to marry a woman who would have otherwise married someone else and was an ancestor of a Nimitz crewmember. That person would erase from existance.
You have to ask ? Just what was Commander Owen & Larual intension of sending Laskey aboard the then USS Nimitz ... other than to fetch the dog Charlie!
Its one of the movies to gain popularity to join the navy like top gun.
The logistics chain must have been a nightmare.
i always wanted them to do a remake of this movie where they actually attacked the Japanese fleet and wiped it out. then have a follow-on TV series that explores the outcome of that action. would Japan have instantly sued for peace since their main fleet was destroyed and America had a new weapon (not knowing the tech to keep the planes and ship going would not be possible for decades to come) that was so devastating? what would have happened in Europe and China if the US stayed out of the war? or at what point would the US enter the war and how that may change history. so many ways you could go with this story line.
You mean like "The Man in the High Castle" (Nazis win WWII) show or "For All Mankind" (Russia wins the Space Race) show? That could be very interesting.
Most of the bullets and bombs would use the same or similar technology, so I wouldn't think those would be hard to make (though if modern day requires higher tolerances, that might be an issue). The performance of the gunpowder might be problematic (I honestly don't know).
I would think getting the jet fuel right would be the bigger issue. I don't know if the precise performance and makeup of the fuel is recorded anywhere on the ship (being on the Internet doesn't help in this case 🙂).
I am interested in what people think the Japanese Empire would do. OT1H, their main fleet would be decimated if not completely destroyed. OTOH, the Japanese military are not know for surrendering (just the opposite in fact). By this time, their declaration of war would have been made (they made it after the attack started, but still in the same day), so there's no backing out of that. They're kind of committed to a course they know they can't win.
Of course, since the attack was NOT successful ("America bravely fought off the aggressors!", or some such), the American people might not be as up-in-arms to fight as they were (recall we were very isolationist before the attack). America might NOT get into the war. And *that* would have all kinds of consequences!
The problem with revealing advanced technology is you risk the strong possibility that showcasing such technology could give the enemy ideas of what is possible and allow them to reverse-engineer such advancements
i haven't seen the shows you referenced, but all the things you talk about are the things i also wonder about. if the US fleet hadn't been attacked the way it was, how eager would the people have been to line up at the recruiting stations or to go through all the rationing for the next 4 years? or more. just so many possible ways you could look at this whole era.@@christalbot210
@@firerescueratchet559 yes and no. the US did capture a wrecked Zero fighter, rebuilt it and then they found the strengths and weakness of it and used that in future aircraft production to make better fighters to latter dominate the Zeros. but with tech from 1980 (or from present day) you would have to know how so many of the little things are made before you could copy them. if you took an I-Phone back in time with all the plans for the phone and the towers, you still could not reproduce one with the tech of the 40s due to the 1000 little things that would be impossible to produce at that time. you would have to spend years creating all the other things before you could even attempt to make a cell phone.
i know my example is like comparing a grape to a watermelon, but after all we are just having a conversation about things we daydream about while we stare at our work wishing we didn't have to work... have a good day.
@@joedoe6444 you can describe what a micro chip can do, but do you know what is the frequency, beam width, power output of the electron beam that cuts it
The bad thing about changing the past bad things, is it would change a lot of good things, too.
You should put the title allways
That would present a dilemma for sure. But just imagine the USS Nimitz interceding the Japanese forces, preventing the US from entering the war on such strained circumstances. But then with the actual help of the Nimitz to then steam directly to Europe and Germany to stop the axis from continuing the destruction and murder! With the immediate boost in technology and peace, with the U.S. at totally capable of keeping the peace.
at 1:40 there could be a warning for headphone users
Im more interested to know what is the music being used in the background.. its nice and soothing.
Movie name??
0:06 No, it did NOT end up in “mist of WWII”. The Nimitz was teleported 1 day before the attack on Pearl, before the US was propelled in to what would become WWII.
WWII started on the 1st of september 1939. Pearl harbor was 7th december 1941. 2 years after the start of the war.
@@lukeskywalker5392 Interesting factoid, the term WWII used by a state leader was first uttered by US President FDR, in response to the attack on Pearl. That said, it was in common usage going back to the 20s, much the same way we use the phrase WWIII today. Still many believe that the “official” start of WWII was after the Pearl Harbour attack, bringing in the much-needed resources of the US, so who am I to argue ?
@@cameraman655 literally ever single source i find states 1st of september 39 as the start of the war. Considering just a few weeks later britian (and as such australia, india and the african colonies) france, germany, the soviet union, Japan, and large parts of asia and africa were at war, that makes 4/5 continents, that are involved in a big war. Literally the US DEPARTEMENT OF DEFENSE states 9/1/1939 as the starting date.
@@lukeskywalker5392 I am not arguing that point, I concur with your comments. However, whether we like it or not, most (especially Americans) will see the attack on Pearl as the beginning of WWII, at least for them. I was just curious as to when WWII became the name of the conflict and upon further research, it was officially called ‘WWII’ towards the war’s end in 1945, by the Truman administration. Seems that FDR, did not care for the name WWII and in 1942 he held a public survey for a new name, but ‘WWII’ or ‘The Second World War’ stuck.
No, WWII started in 1937. Your history is off.
According to many people, including most Hawai’ians, do not consider Hawai’i to be in the United States. Before any of you query that, read up on Hawai’is history, especially the events in 1893.
Dude my dad just mentioned this movie about me and then I saw this
Time travel is always scary. In this one lets say you could stop the attack. Well with out that attack the people would not have gotten behind the war as they did. The US would have never entered WW2 and if they did it would have been at a limited capacity and all of Europe would have been speaking German by 1943 including England as with out US supplies they would have feel long before the US got into the war. With out the lend lease act of 3/4 ton trucks to the Russians they would have never been able to move the way they did and allow their greatest champion to defeat the Germans, the Russian Winter. Those trucks provided the logistical movement they needed to get to the East with everything including a Russian talk factory turn down and everything including the bricks rebuilt on the Eastern side to allow for tank to be built to push on the German's after the winter destroyed them. With out the lend lease program the German's would have taken over Russia at next supper. So much more but that is the rough version.
