What's your favourite war movie? Mine would have to be The Thin Red Line, when I watched that the first time I was really surprised by how different it is from other war movies. Obviously it's not for everyone, but I liked the contrast to Saving Private Ryan which came out just before TTRL.

Well that was an interesting read

[Riddlez]

Have seen too many war films to pick a favourite.

Good chance it's Waterloo though

I second that. Great film

Obviously not because of most of the acting, it's usually very starch. The Napoleon is THE Napoleon though. They cast him using a fucking time machine. But it's the idea of the film that helps. Everything you see in that film is genuine.

Thank the Soviets for that glorious film

Background actors are always superior to CGI. Shame they probably can't pull that off these days due to the cost. I think my favourite war film would either be Waterloo or Zulu.

Totally agree.

Platoon, The Wind that Shakes the Barley, We were Soldiers, Saving Private Ryan, Waterloo, Zulu, Black Hawk Down, Enemy at the Gates, Inglorious Basterds, Das Boot, Schindler's Lists and Downfall are my favourite war films. I know some are less combat based then others but I feel they still all fit under the category.

T.V series - Pacific, Band of Brothers and M*A*S*H, M*A*S*H is  my favourite T.V show of all time.

[Toffee]

I like we were soldiers but Mel Gibson is the definition of a nob. Ruins history with his films and is known to have said anti-Semitic remarks and The Patriot is designed to show the English as awful human beings and is based upon things that simply didn't happen.

[Windflower]

That one movie called Zulu or somethin'. That's probably my favourite war movie.

Anyone here watch Mr. Robot?

In my opinion: season one was great, but season two was a massive middle finger for the majority of its episodes.

When I was in primary school my English teacher explicitly told us to avoid ending our fictional stories with "it was all a dream!"
