Vietnam and 60's stuff is surreal in general, doesn't mean every Vietnam war movie is good.

The Thin Red Line is probably my favorite war film.

i used to have thousands of toy army soldiers (and i'd recreate and retcon the vietnam war in my backyard with elaborate battlefields and jungle bases) so we'd win and wipe those gook fucks off the face of the earth.

all quiet on the western front. every version i've seen has been good. read that book too.

worst war ever.

>>70543738
Combine '60s culture with the last war before the technology explosion (which made wars boring) and a jungle environment and a draft = the most interesting war in my opinion.

WWI is extremely interesting, must have been horrifying to see all the new warfare technology for the first time, experiencing shell shock and being bombarded for hours on end

Fuck off with that fire arm bullshit. The real interesting stuff happened when death came from a man standing three feet from you.

I'd love to see that.

>>70548847

They would have to condense the fuck outta that because most of the time Hannibal spent in Italy was running around flipping cities to his side while Fabius ran around behind him flipping them back while both armies dodged each other.

For a decade.

Not that I'm opposed to doing that and I'd LOVE to see the interaction between Scipio and Hannibal after Hannibal's exile where they discuss the greatest generals of all time.
>>
>>70545761

It would shake out pretty similarly. Once you're in it you die or go crazy, then the crazy ones buckle down because there's nothing else to do.

The CANADA-USCDSA war of 2045, where us CANADIANS that get sent to defend the home from from the various fat fuck Americans do it Vietnam style with tons of guitars playing in the background as we tear you all apart.

Lol, fuck America.

Will there be Syrian and Chinese subtitles for the Canadian parts?

nam has the most interesting nuance to it, because there was a huge divide with people who wanted to be there and people that didn't, so it has tons of drama

the only drama in shit about world war 2 is young kids not wanting to die then dying, but there was no doubt that it had to happen

lots of the people that went to nam died for literally no cause, so it makes for good movies honestly

I've seen it. It's definitely worth a viewing, and it also has a great soundtrack.
