Yea, those tanks **** ballz. Should of had a T-90... nOObs.That flick is starring T-62 (Actually T-55, see the gap between the two frontmost wheels), which has no autoloader.

Favourite war movie?
- Thread starter Johnny555
- Start date
SPR is very good for 30/40mins. After that it's nothing special at all - typical Hollywood fare.
Der Untergang is excellent. I think Stalingrad could be good, however i only have the dubbed version, which is abysmal.

I just watched Brotherhood......................
WOW that was an awesome movie! By far the goriest war movie I've seen and it actually had a good plot!
and Stalag 17 is a great movie, "But the commandant ordered us to paint this here white line through the camp to split it in two!"
*not a direct quote from movie*

Watched Flags of our Fathers yesterday. Pretty good movie, although i would have liked to see it more as a continues war, instead of flashbacks and stuff. The battle scenes are ****ing intense. SPR/BOB intense.

Was I the only person who thought Brotherhood's plot was utter crap? The random, "I'm now with the pinkos! Despite having close friends who I've fought with for months! Actually, noes wait! I'm back with the South again!" was awful. If it was in a Hollywood film people would be ripping the piss out of it, but because it's in a 'world cinema' release everyone loves it.
Meh, the battle scenes were very good, but to say the plot was good or even believable is pushing it a bit lol
@Grimble Grumble. Yeah the WW1 scenes were brilliant in that movie.

That one with the kid from Silver Spoons was OK... Ricky Schroeder???
It was in the Somme iirc. The flamethrowers were gnarly.

Hmm, yeah the plot was good at times, I meant that I liked the meaning behind the movie, the jumping from battle to battle threw the plot off a bit, and the final flip flop was very confusing, but plausible if you take the time to think about it. Although I figured some of those people would have been shot way before anything could have happened (like running back to the north korean lines)
I watched To Hell and Back, an 1955 movie about some young young man named Audie Murphy who fought for the 3rd division in WW2. He was like the highest decorated american in the war. Some parts were a little silly and not historically accurate, but it was a true story and it gave you a glimpse of what this man actually did. At one part I even went BOOYA when he killed some nazis. The best part of the movie is that Audie Murphy was played by Audie Murphy, so you know it's pretty much 100% true story.

Saving private Ryan is pretty good.
The beach is fantastic.
The last Stand is pretty nice.
Ennemy at the gates is horrible...
Well, the start is pretty entertaining... but thats it.
After the first set of action... it just blows.
And the worst war movie I have seen is the latest remake of
"Pearl Harbor"
To make a beautiful love story.
To make is as if the Japs would pull back the last wave because A plane took off and took down 2 japenese planes.
And to make the ameriacans look as if they sent their pilots on a kamikaze mission... thats just wrong.

This guy is supposed to be the most decorated soldier in history. They should make a movie about him.

Best warmovie?
Well, I would say that A bridge too far is the one I like best.
When a gorup of about 20 men suddenly brakes out from the beach and starts running against the german posisions. you see 2x MG34s and severale riflemen shooting down at them, yet noone in that heap of men is even wounded :S
how crappy where the really the germans to shoot?

Yea this is a good movie, but there is one point of it that I found strange..

I blame wikipedia for contradicting themselves. Murphy obviously has more lettuce. Wiki says Murphy is the highest decorated US Soldier...

Audie Murphy is the most decorated US soldier of WW2, but Matt Urban is the most decorated soldier in history. Yet Wikipedia says Audie Murphy won 33 medals while Matt Urban won 29. Strange.
