What are some good war movies?
>>70954987
For realism, I'd say your OP.
Perfectly captured air cav and the complexity of it all
I wish someone would put Robert Downey Jr from Tropic Thunder's face on there and change the title to "We wuz soldiers", but I can't be bothered.
instead of naming the obvious ones that everyone has seen im gonna mention some lesser known ones that are worth watching

Loved that film. Final sequence of the battle with 'It ain't me' playing in the background made it for me.

Come on man, even besides the meme, it's not really an unknown movie unless you're a burger
its burty good
>>70957847
i suggested it because i know burgers have an irrational fear of foreign movies and probably haven't seen this masterpiece other than the overused meme

Underrated post
"La 317e Section" is the best indokino out there.
It's not widely known, even in France, but it's a great movie, directed by Pierre Schoendoerffer, an army photographer/reporter that actualy fought at Dien Bien Phu, and saw some shit in viets camps.
« I forced everyone to live the military life, said the director. A movie about war can't by done, feeling comfortable. Each morning, we would wake up at 5, and walk across the jungle. Each week, we received supplies by airdrop. The film reels were sent to Paris by the same way. From here, we were told by telegraph " Good " or " Not Good ".
>the actors used real bullets as it was cheaper, in Cambodia
>they could hear the real Vietnam war raging on from the jungle
>>70957923
I really don't think of this as a war movie, just a movie that happens to take place during the Vietnam war. It's more like a nightmare come to life.

I love how faggots go on about, "We did this, we did that, MY military is better than YOUR military," when you, I, and no one else on this board had anything to do with that war. Your country and its government are not representations of yourself, you don't have to feel insecure when someone talks shit about its military. I know the indoctrination runs deep, but try identifying as your own person every now and then, you might even like it.

The french got their ass kicked by the Viet Minh, this is a fact.
>Diverse
Above 90% of the soldiers were white
>even though it will only show US
Numerous scenes showing the Vietnamese as actual functioning human beings rather than screaming banzai attackers
>kicking commie ass
No such scenes until broken arrow and the bayonet charge
>filmed in arizona desert
Was filmed in Georgia and Cali exclusively, you fucking mong.
>>70957786
Honestly the French are the last military power left in Europe.
Tho sadly that isn't saying much considering how much everyone else cut their ability to even defend themselves against a couple million unarmed intruders.

That movie is pure garbage. I should know, jeg er norsk. Flammen og Citronen isn't very good either.
>>70955033
bullshit. what they didn't show was that Gibson's character (and pretty much anyone in Headquarter's company) never fired a single shot in the entire "battle". This has been confirmed by pretty much everyone there.

There was fog and Allied forces mistook each other for the enemy and fired on each other. Allied ship also hit a mine.

Come one Germany you can do better.
Anyway the whole point of the Maginot Line was to force Germany to go through the low countries so the war wouldn't be fought on French soil which kind of worked. France didn't expect whole armor divisions to go through the Ardennes though which led to the breakthrough at Sedan which was only guarded by the worst French divisions.

That scene where army dog saves his final clip for killing the village full of vietnamese children. I always feel like i just went through two tours in vietnam after the movie

I really wish there were more movies set in the mid-18th to mid-19th century. 7 Years War, Napoleonic era, etc.
