Greatest war movie of all time?
Weekend at bernie's
Antz
Where Eagle's Dare.
Watching that with my dad pretty much sealed my love of guns and history.

Don't tell Mom the Babysitter is dead

>>29853742
goddamn for real this movie was pretty dark considering it's age group positioning
>>29853720
I liked Stalingrad, 1993 German movie.
Also Enemy at the Gates, Platoon, Letters from Iwo Jima.
Small Soliders
>>29855430
Forgot Defiance with Daniel Craig, that one was pretty neat. Unusual setting also.
>>29855447
>Defiance

Also: Winter War
and Max Manus: Man of War
>>29853720
Waterloo. because fuck CGI
>>29853720

10/motherfucking10
I remember as a kid, I went to go watch this with my mom and brother. We both happened to be home from school for a doc appointment and went to see that in a theater afterwards. We were the only people there. Best theater experience I've ever had. Learned that the front row seats aren't the best that day. IIRC we also watched it again a few days later (albeit with a more full room that time) making it the first movie I ever saw twice in theaters.

>they couldn't even put an abrams
>>29855458
also this is pretty graphic if you haven't seen it and I'd also like to share apocalypse now https://youtu.be/GKaYOW9zMoY
>>29855458
As much as I enjoy this movie, its historical accuracy is Windtalkers-tier.
The introduction with the French triggered the shit out of me.
>>29855499
True but my last 4 years in I was 2/7 Garry Owen with 1st Cav so I for some reason just love all the Cav shit and just toss the rest to the side
>>29855499
https://youtu.be/FxPeHqH4XxI if you have time you should watch this documentary. It's like 20 mins long. If you're into that kind of thing at all, that is.
>>29855447
BRB, torrenting.
>>29855531
that documentary is some real nightmare fuel gahd damn.
>that boy is my nightmare
The Wild Geese is a great film if you can get past some of the trappings of the time it was made, namely the flaming queer surgeon (must have been hilarious in the 70s, but its just insufferable now) and the racial commentary that is so forced it makes District 9 look subtle and nuanced. Its loosely based on Mike Hoares mercenary force in the Congo ten years prior, he was an advisor for the film too.
>>29853720
The Thin Red Line, Band of Brothers?, 1911, Full Metal Jacket
Just off the tope of my head
>>29855833
Too much muh holocaust in Band of Brothers
>>29855682
The way he describes it and remembers every single detail and it's burned into his head for all his remaining days is just horrible. It shows even if you win a battle, there are no winners in war.
>>29855895
Literally one episode, you stormcuck
>>29855895
I got that from Shaving Ryans Dick too.
Platoon is pretty cool
>>29855952
the TV show, tour of duty, use to be pretty cool back in the day. https://youtu.be/0z6fcd--354
It had kevin arnolds dad in it.
>>29855833

>"he's tellin me theyre Polish"
>stormfags tryin to ruse me
>THERES NO POLES IN THE SS, MOVE
This
>>29856007
What movie exactly? Also ofc there were poles in the SS
>>29856063
Band of Brothers, also Poles didnt fit SS standards, im sure some snuck by with forged papers and what not but there wernt real open Poles, as in the Wehrmacht
>>29856090
>Poles didnt fit SS standards
what are you talking about? we're talking about waffen-ss here, they even had indians, arabs, africans and all kinds of slavs
>>29855895
>muh retarded "muh holocaust" stormcuck meme
it's one episode, every mention of the holocaust is "muh holocaust" for you? fuck off u fag
>>29856007
>>29856063
Most of the war up to half of the waffen SS were foreign volunteers. The last defenders of hitler's bunker were french SS. up to 40,000 former US Citizens served in the waffen SS, the majority going to Germany prior to 1941.
>>29856710
Right, but it's bullshit that the last defenders of the Führerbunker were French. That's just wrong. It also never had to be defended as it was never attacked.
>>29856781
Umm, friend. Charlemagne division.
There's an incredible documentary called Chosin about the Chosin reservoir in Korea, insane what those guys went through.
>>29856967
Yes, they were among the last defenders of Berlin. I thought you meant defenders of the Führerbunker specifically.
>>29856982
Well, they were operating around the Führerbunker . It's always pissed me off that the French SS who made it back to France were shot by the French army.
>>29857005
>French SS who made it back to France were shot by the French army
are you fucking nuts? if there's a US citizen joining the Taliban and fighting against the US, i'd want him shot too, if he'd ever tried to go back home.
What the fuck do you expect from the french, welcoming them with open arms and baguettes? They fought for the enemy and not their motherland, even against their motherland. Traitors are executed.
>>29853720
>>29853745
>this scene
>>29857047
Pretty much this all the way. That other dude must have been a stormfag
Das Boot
When it comes to accuracy and the finest details, Das Boot has every movie beat.
They went as far as going to the original U-boat builders and had them build one for the movie.
It's the only war movie I know that has a 5 hour uncut version.
Plus it has a really cool soundtrack.
Somtimes when I'm at my computer working, I'll listen to the OST.
>>29857047
>Fight to protect your country against Communism
>Go home and get shot by your own people
>>29853745
> Where Eagles Dare
> war movie
It's a spy movie, anon. A spy movie with a body count as big as WW1, but still a spy movie.
>>29858042
that's like the most retarded post i read on /k/ for a while
fuck off back to /pol/ you fucking idiot
>>29858042
Last of the Mohicans
>>29855455
My fucking nigger. Amazing movie. Didn't they have like 10,000 conscripts to use as soldiers? Great movie, even though not completely historically accurate.

>>29858431
fuck off stormfag
>>29858362
Now this, this is bait.
>>29858330
There is really no war movie to date that have ever topped or captured the spirit of war like this one
>>29858473
Why, because I triggered you? Because I said something mean about your daddy Adolf?
>>29858362
>autism
I just like the movie. It's pretty terrifying if you are claustrophobic
>>29858460
Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here. Me ? heh, I'm a judge.. this place.... this place has a lot to offer... heh you'll see, kid . . . that is if you can handle it.
>>29858501
this. this is how you shitpost.
>>29858479
>real display of the spirit of war
>whole movie takes place in a submarine
wat
>>29858460
Uh ? I'm just a human being mourning for the useless sacrifice of thousands of good men during all these wars. Don't tell me you were cheering when the crew got straffed at the end ?
>>29858668
>boohoo nazis ded
just fuck off to germany you fucking traitor
objectively the best
>>29858218
>The film includes some 15,000 Soviet foot soldiers and 2,000 cavalrymen as extras—it was said that, during its making, director Sergei Bondarchuk was in command of the seventh largest army in the world.
>Mosfilm contributed more than £4 million of the costs, nearly 16,000 soldiers of the Soviet Army, a full brigade of Soviet cavalry, and a host of engineers and labourers to prepare the battlefield in the rolling farmland outside Uzhhorod, Ukraine (then part of the Soviet Union).
>To recreate the battlefield authentically, the Russians bulldozed away two hills, laid five miles of roads, transplanted 5,000 trees, sowed fields of rye, barley and wildflowers and reconstructed four historic buildings. To create the mud, more than six miles of underground irrigation piping was specially laid. Most of the battle scenes were filmed using five Panavision cameras simultaneously—from ground level, from 100 foot towers, from a helicopter, and from an overhead railway built right across the location.
>Months before the cameras started filming, the 16,000 Soviet Army soldiers began training to learn 1815 drill and battle formations, as well as the use of sabres, bayonets and handling cannon. A selected 2,000 additional men were also taught to load and fire muskets. This army lived in a large encampment next to the battlefield. Each day after breakfast, they marched to a large wardrobe building, donned their French, British or Prussian uniforms and fifteen minutes later were in position. The soldiers were commanded by officers who took orders from director Sergei Bondarchuk by walkie-talkie.

Dad Boot is literally the story of a young optimistic civilian (the photojournalist) coming to understand the horror of submarine warfare.

It's understandable if you was talking about balts or poles to some extent but French? Either you are rerarded or bait, I'm not even sure

Deserve it desu senpai
>>29858126
The Pearl Harbor attack and Doolittle Raid were pretty good.
>>29856710
>"Although the Waffen-SS on the Eastern Front contained a sizable number of non-Germans, no Polish unit was ever formed."
>>29856666
>"Other minorities from in prewar Poland including Ukrainians, Belarusians, Russians both served in the Wehrmacht and formed their own Waffen-SS brigades."
Germans would rather form Russian SS units than Polish ones, Danzig triggerd them that much
>>29859009
>check out foreign volunteers in the Waffen-SS
>of all the nations listed on wikipedia, the dutch are only topped by the romanians(50.000 versus 55.000 )

Bullshit, the average run of the mill guy in the Wehrmacht or Kriegsmarine aren't on the same tier as someone who orchestrated war crimes

The white phosphorous scene took this movie from 0-100 real fast
>>29860936
They share their victories as they share their guild. They all where a piece of the machine which raped Europe.
>>29861012
>Raped Europe
I thought we were talking about the Nazis and not the Soviets?
>>29858140
Awesome answer.
