Post Your Favorite War Movie

And our battle plan will be that of an Apache resistance. We will be cruel to the Germans, and through our cruelty they will know who we are. And they will find the evidence of our cruelty in the disemboweled, dismembered, and disfigured bodies of their brothers we leave behind us. And the German won’t not be able to help themselves but to imagine the cruelty their brothers endured at our hands, and our boot heels, and the edge of our knives. And the German will be sickened by us, and the German will talk about us, and the German will fear us. And when the German closes their eyes at night and they’re tortured by their subconscious for the evil they have done, it will be with thoughts of us they are tortured with. Sound good? (YES, SIR!) That’s what I like to hear. But I got a word of warning for all you would-be warriors. When you join my command, you take on debit. A debit you owe me personally. Each and every man under my command owes me one hundred Nazi scalps. And I want my scalps. And all y’all will git me one hundred Nazi scalps, taken from the heads of one hundred dead Nazis. Or you will die tryin’.

I usually agree with you, but in all honesty, did we watch the same movie ? Animal Mother's charge during the sniper scene was awe inspiring.
 
Rescue Dawn

Enemy at the Gate

Kelly's Heros

Blackhawks Down

restrepo (documentary)

Hunt for Red October

Run Silent Run Deep

Tora Tora Tora

Siege of Fire Base Gloria

Clear and Present Danger

FMJ

Act of Valor was interesting.

Tons more I can't think of off top of my head. Some of these are repeats but favorites of mine. I love war movies. Need to step up my WWII collection.

there are some great new war movies sure.

but only a few references to the "Great Escape"? you guys need to watch some classics.

how about "Guns of Navarone" "Battle of the Bulge" or how about "The longest day" Sean Connery and John Wayne IN THE SAME MOVIE?

or another great one "the dirty dozen"

Exactly, and acoplypse now! how is that not in everyones top 5, such a classic movie and the story behind the making of it is unreal.
 
Black Hawk Down

The Hurt Locker (I don't give two shits if it isn't "realistic", it's a damn good movie."and someday I will finish Saving Private Ryan.
 
very good film

for me i'd say top five are:

apocalypse now

deer hunter

saving private ryan

platoon

full metal jacket.

i really need to watch restrepo and hurt locker. also, this isn't a movie but a series, but has anyone seen it?

it's only 7 episodes long but it's easily one of the best series' ever IMO, and was made by the people who made the wire
