full metal jacket is great but its a little limited as its only 2 scenes, not that full scale war that you might look for in a total war movie

Band of brothers was great.

FMJ-only the first half.

Hamburger hill was good

There was a move in the late 80's early 90's called 84 Charlie Mopic which was cool as it was shot as if by a combat corrspondant.

The sniper movie about alexi zeitsef enemy at the gates.

Platoon

Tora Tora Tora

Gallopli

Midway

Plus a big fan of Uncommon Valor.

hamburger hill gets overlooked a lot

there was some movie that had Vietnam war scenes in it but it was about bank robbers? They were Recon Marines...some guy gets castrated by the VietCong

anyone know the name of it?

Gladiator. Dunno if it's a war movie but it hauled ass.

Really a good idea but could be better shot now with a different war but the end is classic.

I'm sorry Shadow, I typically stay out of this kind of thing.
But, shit....you're the biggest fucking dork.

Seriously, be a man. Grow some balls. Get some confidence. You're only going to hold yourself back in life. Go fuck a fatty, beat up someone, even if they're really small....ANYTHING that could help form you into something in someway related to a human man.

Your posts are lowering MY testosterone

"has anyone been to a nude beach?"

"U-571 is the best war movie ever! I was glued to my seat!"

"Indian women all think they're better than everyone."

If I hear you put some lame, meek Indian woman on a pedestal again, my balls are going to un-decend, and suck back into my body.

I know you're going to come back with some third rate, tennis playing, cross country running reply to this....about how I'm a pussy, and you're not....but you won't fool anyone.

Find a way to be less of a dork.
Please
