Can we have some other conflicts please? I guess the big budgets always goto the ones where America is the most involved (WWII, Vietnam)
I'd like an HBO miniseries on the 20 Years War, the War of 1812, Both Boer Wars, Falklands War, WWI, Korean War, etc.

I would agree that the European theater is probably overdone. However, the Pacific theater is vastly under represented. Especially on the magnitude of the entire campaign which lasted 4 years. We get films that show one battle here or there, but nothing that shows us the entire war, which i'm hoping the Pacific will do.
Heck, it's not the European theater that's overdone, it's really only from D-Day on. The invasion of Sicily and Italy is not a central WWII theme, the Battle of Britain certainly isn't, nor is the fighting that took place in North Africa.
