I too feel it's ridiculous that it is only on Movies so am watching as it comes out in the US then will be buying it when it comes out on blu-ray.
So far though it's a bit lacking in the actual battle scenes we know and love from Band of Brothers. Episode 3 has none at all Episode 4 has one short and barely visible scene which is lit only by strobe lighting and is just a bunch of japs running aimlessly into the machine gun...bit dull really.

According to the vets whose memoirs this is based on, there was an awful lot of waiting, and when action did come, it was confusing, horrific and violent. And then back to waiting, the horrible drudge of daily life, trying to deal with the horrors of an enemy that will accept death rather than surrender.
