June 22, 201016 yr An interesting 3.5 hour long Japanese movie about kamikaze attacks - Father of the Kamikazehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLMyMeoAdqs Generation Kill is a really great mini TV series made by same people who made The Wire and is about invasion of Iraq. One of the best things I have seen or watched.
June 22, 201016 yr I really do not recommend Apocalypse Now, it was on TV and I went to watch because of all the fame it has.Was really boring and barely any action, only watch if you like 3 hours of boating over a river.
June 22, 201016 yr Author The Pacific wasn't as good as BoB, I haven't even watched the final episode yet Totally agree with this one. BoB had much stronger characterization and the story telling seemed to be a lot more coherent. There were also quite a few more intense combat scenes. Something to fill my sig with until I find a replacement.Also check out my blug
June 22, 201016 yr It's not a movie, but Band of Brothers, if you can get hold of the whole season, is amazing. POH Agility Course, Please Support!
June 22, 201016 yr It's not a movie, but Band of Brothers, if you can get hold of the whole season, is amazing. I bought this like at $60 new on DVD, and don't regret it. You can pick it up for about $40 new on SD, $60 on Blu, or $20-30ish used "Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world."Abraham Lincoln

June 23, 201016 yr Best war movies for me: The PianistWe Were SoldiersThe KingdomThe Star...still rising Research papers writing tips
June 23, 201016 yr Nobi (Fires on the Plain), an underseen Kon Ichikawa classic that truely shows the horros of war. No glorification here. It got released in America through Criterion. You could also check out the war movies by the Polish filmmaker Andrzej Wajda. Another interesting movie (although post-war) is Germany anno zero, by Rosselini. And while you're at it check out Rome, Open city as well. Something more recent is Malick's The Thin Red Line or Ben Stiller's Tropic Thunder. If you're interested in a good holocaust documentary check out Shoah (it's almost 10 hours long, so take a few days for it). [edit] I forgot to mention Sam Fuller's The Steel Helmet and the The Big Red One and Peckinpah's Cross of Iron. Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!
June 23, 201016 yr I second Come and See, watching it is an extremely intense experience. Thin Red Line is great, albeit long. Also Zulu, glorious film.
June 23, 201016 yr I really do not recommend Apocalypse Now, it was on TV and I went to watch because of all the fame it has.Was really boring and barely any action, only watch if you like 3 hours of boating over a river.It's not supposed to be about action and fighting. It's about the intense mental strain that Vietnam put on soldiers and how completely [bleep]ed up a soldier can become when put in a hellhole like Vietnam. "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."
June 23, 201016 yr 'The bridge' the original german version is a great war film from the german perspective. Want to be my friend? Look under my name to the left<<< and click the 'Add as friend' button!Big thanks to Stevepole for the signature!^
June 23, 201016 yr Lol Tropic Thunder. If you like comedic war movies, go crazy...otherwise...stay away :P And if you have to chose between pearl harbour or TORA TORA TORA, go for the latter. It's much more realistic and far less glamourized. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
June 24, 201016 yr Go for broke, a 1950s film, i think i saw it on youtube roflthe pianist is awesome but several times, i wanted to hurl like when the woman was shot in her head for asking where her family was being taken to / wheelchair off the balcony.
June 26, 201016 yr Author Go for broke, a 1950s film, i think i saw it on youtube roflthe pianist is awesome but several times, i wanted to hurl like when the woman was shot in her head for asking where her family was being taken to / wheelchair off the balcony. It just goes to show how brutal it really got during the war. Yet, there are holocaust survivors who have seen films like The Pianist and Schindler's List who shrug them off and vehemently express that nothing could ever give even a close sample of what it was truly like.

June 27, 201016 yr I just got done watching Full Metal Jacket.That was a great film, I highly recommend it. "Let your anger be as a monkey in a piñata... hiding amongst the candy... hoping the kids don't break through with the stick." - Master Tang
June 29, 201016 yr I just got done watching Full Metal Jacket.That was a great film, I highly recommend it.Saw it, dislike. Very sad film with a lot of lying about army and war
