Favorite Military movies

[FX4 SAPPER]

I don't understand how you think Alexander was a good movie.

Alexander The Great was a bad mofo, quite possibly the best military leader of all time.

Nobody liked the Dirty Dozen?

Band of Brothers was really good I thought. Hell when HBO does a series, they do it right.

Band of Brothers is one of the best. When they were freezing thier asses off in Bastogne it really made me appreciate the cold weather gear I have!

We Were Soldiers
Saving Private Ryan

Black Hawk Down
Braveheart
The Patriot
Saving Private Ryan
Inglorious Basterds

IMO Braveheart and The Patriot might as well be the same movie. Same lead actor, nearly identical speeches used before going into battle, both are about people fighting for thier freedom........
