i'll say the patriot,that part where mel gibson takes on all those soldiers with just a knife and an axe is crazy. then he keeps hacking that guy with his axe.

Saving Private Ryan of those three. Of course We Were Soldiers, Black Hawk Down, Tora Tora Tora and The Longest Day all own those movies.

Saving Private Ryan but also liked Kellys Heroes as a more comedy war film

Posted by TranceMuzik02 on Jul-23-2004 16:44:

not seen the first two, but Full Metal Jacket is better. The Great Escape is good too.

Star Wars

The Pianist, definately. I haven't seen The Patriot though, but SPR sucks.

Full Metal Jacket is the ultimate war movie for me. Dark, humorous, and inspirational, it made me think of war in different ways, and now I dont really have the need to see any other war movie as that one helped me answer all my questions about why man wages war.

Posted by Ghostface on Aug-08-2004 09:56:

Heartbreak Ridge
Full Metal jacket
Platoon

all shit on the poll choices.

Saving Private Ryan

of course

Posted by FCB_Fanatic on Aug-12-2004 18:14:

only seen SPR, so i'll vote for this one. But i'm sure i also like the patriot.

another war movie that i realy like is 'windtalkers' and imo black hawk down sucks big time, reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly boring movie

Have to disagree with you there. BHD OWNZ Windtalkers big time. John Woo should be banned from directing war epics. Firing from the hip and hitting everything, bottomless magazines, and uber grenades that blow up everything in the vicinity = boring for me. While BHD was altered a bit in terms of what really happened over in Somalia the movie itself was still a solid work and provided GREAT action which was much, MUCH more realistic and believable then anything John Woo could dream up. Well, aside from M4A1s almost all but replacing CAR-15s on screen. You've got to be one of the few peeps I know who thought BHD was boring. Care to elaborate a bit? I'm interested in your opinion.

Hamburger Hill is probably one of the more realistic ones i've seen, certainly more so than Apocalypse Now/Platoon/FMJ

Catch 22 for the comedy

Posted by N|te-L|fe on Aug-31-2004 20:01:

SPR.. realistic, shocking, a true WW2 classic

Posted by Ek0nomik on Sep-01-2004 06:25:

Saving Private Ryan. If you guys are big war buffs, you should really check out Band of Brothers. Fucking best series out there. I have the DVD Collection of them, there's 10 episodes. Buy it for rent them at Family Video or Blockbuster or somethin, they're m!nt.
