Talk:Red Alert (novel)

recall code
I assume that the recall code wasn't purity of essence. I'm curious if anyone knows what the code was in the book. superlusertc 2007 July 12, 05:38 (UTC)

Being unfamiliar with the book, I would speculate that it is Peace on Earth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.82.108.85 (talk) 09:46, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If I remember the film correctly "The recall code OPE has been issued..." Bubba73 (talk), 05:14, 27 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Close. It was OEP--"On Earth Peace". The fictional "B-52K" was severely damaged by a Soviet interceptor and crashed into a row of trees trying to reach "the ICBM base at Kotlass" at low level, triggering a Hiroshima-sized detonation rather than an H-bomb megaton blast. I got the paperback as a 6th Grader through Scholastic Book Club and read it several times. Think of any English movie trying to emulate Americans using all British actors and script writers whose image of Americans was World War II caricatures and you get a feel for the style. The basic elements of the Kubrick film follow the novel, including the attack on the base in Texas. --Reedmalloy (talk) 21:59, 11 December 2009 (UTC)--
 * From Russia with love, people! And how come noone notices another great film started right after Cubric's and faded in Cubric's glory (american actors starring btw) wich is not a comedy but a pcychological thriller, wich ends in an unusual way - Moscow was destroyed by 2*20 megatons blast, and president of the United States immediately grants destruction of New York City by the atomic blast from the nearby soviet submarines to prevent WW3? The film was good (even novadays, t'is quite decent), the idea of exchange is quite out of ordinary - they bargained about the cities for some time, see, New York haven't quite mastered Moscow in number of citizens and so on. ?? How come u forget your own cultural gainage (? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.169.128.128 (talk) 00:00, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Since you don't mention the title of this movie you reference, I would deduce you mean "Fail-Safe." But "Fail-Safe" is obviously included in this article, with several references to lawsuits over both the book and the movie. So, I really don't understand your question. What OTHER movie could you be talking about? The title of that film would be helpful.
