CapNColostomy Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 These are generally my favorite types of movies. Anybody else like 'em? And if so, which do you like best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivy Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 i liked enemy at the gates, platoon and black hawk down.. but generally i'm not a big fan of war films. i'll think i'll vote enemy at the gates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Platoon, was a great movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfnshannon Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Well we own them all... but as far as the one I liked We were Soldiers I really liked it, including the fact that Mel Gibson was in it. Saving Private Ryan was pretty good but gory. Black Hawk down is probably my 3rd favorite. That movie was awesome as well - except it was hard to tell at points who was who.

Sam Fisher Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 I only saw the last half of Saving Private Ryan.. none other.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Apocalypse Now- Haven't seen it but I want to. Black Hawk Down- Good movie, I would buy it on DVD, but near-total lack of character development puts it down I think. We Were Soldiers- I would see it but they don't show it on the default 5 channels that I have. Windtalkers- Great movie but lacks a few things. Full Metal Jacket- Haven't seen. Enemy at the Gates- It was just an average movie, and they got quite a few things incorrect (I would know!) Das Boot- Great film, but not the best. Platoon- Haven't seen but I want to. SAVING PRIVATE RYAN RULEZ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBell Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Saving Private Ryan was a thrill to watch from beginning to end. I would also give props to Enemy at the Gates, but I've seen it about 7 times sinse it's recent arrival to cable TV, so it's kinda lost its flavor.

I almost put it in Yodas place, I just figured it probably wouldn't get any votes since it's old, and most of the folks here seem fairly young. I love that flick. Was just talking about it with my boss at work, matter of fact. But I will admit to forgetting The Dirty Dozen and Glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miko Reglia Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 yeah i always liked Saving Private Ryan, its a great movie with Tom Hanks... Steven Spielberg movies are just fantastic, and they win the oscars too:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havoc Stryphe Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 You are only considering Modern Warfare, I take it? What about these? Hamburger Hill The Guns of Navarone - with none other than Harrison Ford, himself Pearl Harbor - well, it sucked, but it's definately a war movie Gettysburg - Civil War was considered birth of modern warfare Gods & Generals - ditto And if you're considering Black Hawk Down, then you have to include Rules of Engagement, and the more recent Tears of the Sun Of course these have already been mentioned: Glory The Dirty Dozen Tora Tora Tora And if you weren't considering just modern warfare than there is a whole slew of war movies you forgot: Braveheart The Last Samurai Shogun The Patriot The Alamo Etc. Etc. Etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golferbr Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 You did forget Braveheart and that is an amazing movie, I vote for Yoda since it isn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapNColostomy Posted December 10, 2003 Author Share Posted December 10, 2003 ewww...I hated Braveheart, Tears of the Sun, and Rules of Engagement. But if there weren't a ten choice limit, I'd have listed them, that way everyone could vote for Yoda and Saving Private Ryan anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
