The War of the Roses starring Michael Douglas
Rogue One.
But unironically.
Paths of Glory
When I have a good 3 hours of time to kill, I like to sit down and put on Black Hawk Down.
Usually the firefights wake me up from my nap in time to see the good parts.
Don’t have any. Only teenagers think war movies are entertaining.
Out of the way, plebs.

I don't like war. It's mean and boring.
this interaction actually happened and the guy with the umbrella was a real person
en.wikipedia.org
>Major Allison Digby Tatham-Warter DSO (21 May 1917 – 21 March 1993), also known as Digby Tatham-Warter or just Digby, was a British Army officer who fought in the Second World War. He was most known for carrying an umbrella into battle.
>During the battle, Digby wore his red beret instead of a helmet and waved his umbrella while walking about the defences despite heavy mortar fire. When the Germans started using tanks to cross the bridge, Digby led a bayonet charge against them wearing a bowler hat. He later disabled a German armoured car with his umbrella, incapacitating the driver by shoving the umbrella through the car's observational slit and poking the driver in the eye
absolute mad lad
I agree.
Movie should have been called just "Market Garden" or something so that the last line wouldn't be fucking movie-ruining cringe

glorious empire brits of old
It made for a good game, though.

Based. Does Dr. Strangelove count? If so, that's my favorite. If not, it's Munich. If that doesn't count, it's Blackhawk Down.
I still have this game around here somewhere, I doubt it'll run on windows 10 though
Black Hawk Down probably
Braveheart is up there, even if not historically accurate.
Attack of the Clones. (I don't really like warmovies, to be honest.)
did braveheart have a tax policy?
I'm interested in knowing whether or not Strangelove and Munich count as war movies.
No, because that was the Bruce's job. Since he was king of the Scots.
Come and See
dr strangelove it's great

The Nazis did kind of suck. They were right about a lot of stuff, but they severely overcorrected.
Calm your tits Goebbels
Not war movie but 13 Hours.
I put it above Black Hawk Down because I prefer the characters.
I couldn't name a single person in BHD. I enjoy the movie but yeah.
13 Hours on the other hand, memorable guys.
I don't know his character's name, but you didn't like Eric Bana? He was the coolest.
I didn't say anything about not liking them.
Yes, he was a standout character.
Patton
I haven't seen 13 hours. Do you think Bana's character in BHD is cooler than any of the characters in 13H?
>Ethan Hawke
>Tom Sizemore
>Orlando Bloom
>Tom Hardy
there were tons of A listers in BHD tho
Im talking characters, not actors.
I dont know dude, Tanto is pretty cool.
Star Wars - Empire strikes back
I'll watch 13 Hours for Tanto. Thanks.

Oh fuck, didn't even notice the other patrician in this thread
If anyone doesn't like Braveheart they are a huge, enormous, gigantic, elephantine faggot
this
Lol I've seen it, it's a bunch of goofy arthouse sequences with an evil cartoon nazis ending where they are indiscriminately burning women and children alive for literally no reason as if that's a thing that ever happened. The only thing funnier than the over the top comic book ending church burning scene is imaging that people took it seriously and think they understand anything about the nazis or the war because they watched a low tier russian propaganda movie
you posted it baby
everyone in this thread is a pleb
>as if that's a thing that ever happened
This newfag doesn't know about Dirlegang
I can't remember the names of the characters from 13 Hours, but I'll recommend it because the action scenes are shot well.
>at night
>shooting each other like 20m apart on the streets
>one team is full of identical high speed low drag white operators and a couple of their sandnigger allies
>the other team is all similarly clothed sandniggers too
>can still easily see who is with who and who the camera is currently following
I know Bay gets shat on constantly, but I can't deny he knows how to frame the action scenes.
user I think you should look into the pacification of Belarus and the anti partisan measures used by the Dirlewanger and Kaminsky units.
But you won't, because you probably think those were all Judeo-Bolshevik lies, don't you?

Are you talking about the elite SS Dirlewanger Grenadier Brigade?
Dirlewanger was a convicted pedophile before the war and hated by his own SS subordinates. What's so hard to believe?
>burning women and children alive for literally no reason as if that's a thing that ever happened.
Read about the Nazi occupation of Belorussia you obnoxious zoomer faggot might come as a shock but the nazis really were brutal

>IW shitters
Alright. I'll check it out.
The Patriot
The Human Condition, one of the greatest films of all time. It's a real shame that its length puts people off from discovering it.
Pic related, Letters from Iwo Jima and All Quiet on The Western Front are my favorites.
Also.
Stalin had racked up a higher bodycount before Hitler had gassed a single Jewish soul; this is a valid complaint about historical interpretation and context of WW2
Nazi Germany could have pacified entire Ukraine by not treating them like shit and allowing them to kill Russians. Funny how its backward race science worked against them.
>Stalin had racked up a higher bodycount before Hitler had gassed a single Jewish soul
Well obviously, Stalin was in power for longer and Hitler killed most of people during WW2, specifically during his invasion to Russia.
Brest Fortress/Fortress of War
I guess that belarus ended up with a quarter of their population dead and over 700 villages burnt to the ground is just fake and never happened, infact those people never existed, right?
So what? Does the fact that Stalin killed more mean that German crimes never happened and weren't also atrocious
It means the Communist crimes pull rank on German crimes, were this not a clown world.
>the fact that Stalin killed more
It's not fact user, it's literally debunked cold war propaganda.
>entire Ukraine
Oh wow. Only idiots from Lviv believed Nazi see them as equals and not as useful idiots they were.
> Holodomor is "made up cold war propaganda"
Yes, Nazis saw Ukrainians that way. And I'm stating it was a costly strategical error from Nazi Germany in war against USSR.
>war kino thread diverges into muh political nazi shit
it literally always does why nu-Yea Forums white knights for Nazis is beyond me
> Surprised that Nazis get talked about in a war thread in Yea Forums.
German genocide against Poles alone is enough to top hohlomor.
What does that have to do with the movie? It's a good film regardless of political stance.
... but allied genocide against Germans (1946-1950) comes to abt. 5.7 million dead, so that's another one for the liberal freedom fighters.
Full Metal Jacket
Because of 9/11 they refused to show the movie in my country (Switzerland). I remember downloading the DVD rip on my birthday. What a great movie. I wish I didn't have to watch it on my computer though.
I was heavily into Airsoft at the time as well which was a bonus.
>why nu-Yea Forums white knights for Nazis
Maybe because they live in a country that was never bombed
My niggas, came to say exactly this.
Most of the Europe was bombed by one or the other side in the war; only ones to escape were Amerimutts.
because it's the faggot /pol/ tards who shit the thread as soon as someone posts a soviet movie
>5.7 million
lmao, where'd you get that figure from
Did you mean the one when they killed the Germans by launching them from catapults and shooting mid-air with shotguns?
Jadotville is another great war movie in case you haven't seen it.
> lmao, where'd you get that figure from
It's the approximate count of missing Germans.
October 1946
> Population of all occupied Germany in was 65,000,000, according to the census prepared under the ACC.
October 1946 - September 1950
> Returning prisoners who were added to the population numbered 2,600,000, according to records in the archives of the four principal Allies.
> Births according to the official German statistical agency, Statistisches Bundesamt, added another 4,176,430 newcomers to Germany.
> Expellees arriving totaled 6,000,000.
1950
> Total population before losses would have been 77,776,430, according to the Allies themselves.
1946-50
> Deaths officially recorded were 3,235,539, according to the UN Yearbook and the German government.
> Emigration was about 600,000, according to the German government.
> Thus the population found should have been 73,940,891.
But the census of 1950 done by the German government under Allied supervision found only 68,230,796. There was a shortage of 5,710,095 people, according to the official Allied figures (rounded to 5,700,000).

We can all guess how much of Harry Dexter White's "Morgenthau plan" was enabled to achieve these ends. Note that White was a Communist.

The cold war is over dude political officers aren't going to break into your home and take you to the gulag for not repeating party line bullshit.
>nor do I have a favorite side in the II WW.
yea no ones buying that retard.
Your 5.7 million estimate is the only one I've seen, most I've seen range from 500,000 to 2 million, but none as high as 5.7 million.
The Russian one with all the slo-mo shells hitting tanks and shit scenes
Is that supposed to be a tiger? Fucking lol
Yet the momentum is still enough to keep mutts repeat the the same wermacht dindu nuffin nonsense over and over.
Shut the fuck up dumb zoomer, you only came to think this because of Yea Forums threads about 'well I guess the real movie title were the friends we made along the way', the last line is alright and the last scene where credit rolls is beautiful.
Mash. The series.
The references are in the book; though for an internet historian hard to acquire. Approximately 31 million Germans (both ethnic and citizens) were moved in 1944-1948 in Eastern and Central Europe. If we assume of 10 million Jews in German Europe 6 million were killed, it doesn't seem far fetched for intentional starvation policies to shave that many Germans from 31 million.
>it doesn't seem far fetched for intentional starvation policies to shave that many Germans from 31 million.
That's not how it works retard you don't just "shave" numbers these estimates are backed up with tons of primary documentation and corroborated by independent scholars. The expulsion of Germans post-WW2 is well documented and I've never seen any credible estimates past 2 million. this 5.7 million is an anomaly and I've yet to see it corroborated by anyone credible

13 hours secret soldiers of bengazi
Is fucking amazing. I'm shocked because Michael Bay gets such shit. But he put together a good cast and set some amazing fight scenes
Seige of jadotville is surprisingly good. Good laid out fight scenes nd good cast
Vietnam films are as follows , full metal jacket, platoon, boys in company C , hamburger hill
Vietnam war documentary series. It's 10 episodes. It's very good
yeah they had to mock up a t-34-85 to look like a tiger because most tiger tanks aren't in working order then and now. the movie saving private ryan did the same.

This is the greatest and most underrated war movie of all time.
After seeing dozens, I keep going back to Saving Private Ryan. Insanely ahead of its time, the entire war movie industry spent the next decade trying to catch up.
Sometimes I'm in the mood for comradery and searching for a noble cause in war, sometimes just balls out brutal action, and SPR is a perfect blend of the two everytime.

Commie propagandist. No but seriously, Fortress of War is such a mediocre pick, although it's probably better than other contemporary war movies coming out of Russia, e.g. Stalingrad (2013).
>being nazis was a strategic error for nazis
killing slavs and taking their land was the entire point of the ideology.
The “Tiger” tanks used in the film were actually Russian T-34 tanks which had been specially modified to look like Tiger tanks. This is apparent when you look at the suspension of the tanks (T-34s used a modified Christie suspension, whereas the Tigers’ wheels were much more elaborate.)
Every tiger in any movie is just a modified T-34/T-55/etc
Fury is pretty much the only movie that had a real Tiger in it.
sounds like a redditor desu

you get my point, theres fuck all real tigers in movies
Such a bad tiger

I think there's one other with a real one.
Considering most people won't have a clue it's wrong, or care, why bother? It's a movie, not a historical artifact. Plus, there's so few real ones, they would have had no reference, before the internet.
Infinity War
>russian propaganda movie
How can it be "propaganda" when Klimov the director literally had to fight for 8 years straight in order to release it because the soviet government didn't want it to be released under any circumstance?
This is mainly because the majority of the "germans" in the film are ukrainian collaborators (like it actually happened), as evident by that entire under the bridge scene. Literally soviets killing soviets.
It's an anti-war film, there is not even one hint of why would anyone join the soviet army/partisans also, nothing but bad things happen as soon as he joins them, even before he encounters any enemy at all.
Atleast watch the film before spewing absolute ignorant bullshit about it
Patton.
Runners up: Kelly's Heroes, the Dirty Dozen, Mash, Mr. Roberts, The Big Red One, Hamburger Hill, Gallipoli, The Caine Mutiny (Geometric logic).
I don't hate Apocalypse Now, or Full Metal Jacket, or any of the big ones, I've just seen them too many times.
You just posted it, fren
Jadotville is a tremendous pile of shit
Wait, isn't that the kraut tv show in which they're portrayed as dindu nuffin and evil poles hate the jews for no reason?
Is posting Come and See just bait at this point?
There is never any legitimate discussion on the film just anally devastated Nazi apologists trying to tear it down
it's basically pic related, and it's always the americans

why are you fags so obsessed with us? it's really embarrassing at this point.
could be worse, could be this guy
Patton
There's many other very good movies but Patton is ultra comfy
every uniform looked like shit, reminded me of Dirty Dozen
> Every German soldier was a Race Scientist Oppressing Minorities
This is an abstracted leftist talking point; the film portrays it realistically, that the SS troops and the genocide program was a brainchild of Heinrich and Heidrich and normal troops (like the brother) had a fuck all knowledge about it.
yes yes, poor germans got invaded by these weird nazi aliens from the moon and were forced to murder all these jews and slavs and stuff
They dindu nuffin and were all good bois after all
Why are you obsessed talking about things you clearly know jackshit about?
You little snowflakes don't know anything about Eastern Europe in WW2 so better keep those snowflake mouths shut.
Are you really insisting on that the entire German native population had a gene that made them all race obsessed? Oddly arguing in terms of ridiculous race science here.
>The Tablet reviewer Laurence Zuckerman said that Generation War's presentation of World War II Germans as tolerant and free of anti-Semitism was "wildly out of sync" with what scholars have learned from letters, diaries and other primary sources. In reality, "most ordinary Germans at the time held attitudes of casual racism at the very least, and a strong sense of imperial entitlement over Jews, Slavs and other races deemed racially and culturally inferior. The series tries to draw a distinction between Nazis and everyday Germans that simply did not exist in any broad way. The tagline on the movie's poster – 'What happens when the country you love betrays everything you believe?' – is demonstrably false. Most Germans believed in the Nazi agenda.
That's exactly what im insisting on.
>The Tablet reviewer Laurence Zuckerman
Not that user, but lmao.
>The series tries to draw a distinction between Nazis and everyday Germans that simply did not exist in any broad way
ahhh yes, Oskar Dirlewanger was the same as a whatever German housewife with kids am i rite
>most ordinary Germans at the time held attitudes of casual racism at the very le
Oh no, not casual racism. Now each of them is guilty of gassing the Jews. Americans need to now pay repatriations; for America had niggers hanging from lampposts long after Nazi Germany was dust.
Like I said, this insistence that every German was guilty of gassing six million Jews (this adds up to
80 million x 6 million = 4.8e+14; each German gassed 6 million) is the same leftist talking point as they use against Americans and black slavery now.
