Glad it's useful! There's a few WWI movies in the spreadsheet but I agree they're much more difficult to find. ChatGPT is actually really good for this though, you can say "Generate a table of 100 WWI movies from diverse points of view" and have a good place to start.
This could work for World War II since there's so many movies, but even so a bunch of events aren't covered. I also created this spreadsheet of films with their time periods and events covered. It's not exhaustive by any means though, and new ones are coming out constantly.
I recently finished a large World War II project that covered the full timeline of the war, and Google Maps was a valuable tool to follow what was happening in any given battle. The problem is Google Maps has more detail than you need, so trying to follow something like Operation Market Garden is much more difficult than just looking at this beautiful battle map: https://www.alamy.com/a-bridge-too-far-image68088140.html. "The West Point Atlas of War" is another great resource.
Maps cover the spatial side of war, but in addition it's difficult to follow the timeline. My project stitched popular World War II movies together into a chronological series, making it easier to see what was happening across the world at any given time. You can view the episodes and the full blog post here: https://open.substack.com/pub/ww2supercut/p/combining-143-wo.... And in addition "The Second World War" by Churchill's biographer Martin Gilbert, is a chronological, 750 page book that I couldn't put down.
The LLMs are getting better and better at a certain kind of task, but there's a subset of tasks that I'd still much rather have any human than an LLM, today. Even something simple, like "Find me the top 5 highest grossing movies of 2023" it will take a long time before I trust an LLM's answer, without having a human intern verify the output.
It's the nugget of truth that spreads conspiracy theories. People see that they're being lied to, or a problem is less complex than it actually is, and they rightfully question what they've been told. The failure is many of these people become cynical, and instinctively reject anything the perceived authority says, which leads to crazy theories like we never went to the moon, or vaccines cause autism.
