Favorite World War II movie of all-time.

[Andromeda]

I've never seen Saving Private Ryan, so I can't really say. And I doubt that I would since when it comes to World War II movies I just can't resist the classics. My definite all time favorite movie would be The Longest Day which is a classic war movie from the 50s I think or really early 60s. Either way it covers the D-Day invasion from multiple points of view giving you a real good view and taste of all of the fighting that was taking place all across the French countryside and coast line.

The runner up would have to be the Battle of Bulge which is a favorite battle for me in the war anyway. So it makes it really enjoyable to watch. I wish I could remember the other one that I really like, but I've seen it so little. It was basically about the German armor divisions going up against the American armor divisions and I think one of the last pushes against the main German army before things really started to fall apart quickly for them. Wish I could remember it.

Sorry, but I really have to go old school when it comes to war movies. They just don't make them like that anymore. Though they do not really make very many World War II movies anymore. Kirk Douglas and John Wayne did a few along with Cary Grant, though he usually did lighter ones. Still so many war movies were made back in the 50s and 60s. Guess hollywood burned themselves out.

**** me sideways people, is saving private ryan the only ****ing war movie you have seen? I certainly hope so, as id hate to think you have seen alot and still picked the most patriotic bullshit movie you possibly could as your favourite. Sending a ****ing army to find some guy because his brothers are dead and the US army doesnt want an old lady to be anymore heart broken ? What ****ing bullshit, as if people, as ****ing IF !

My favourite WWII related movie would have to be Kelly's heroes, and guess what?? ITS AMAZING. The film starts with some of the main charatcers in a farm house interogating some Nazi's, and one of them is carrying a big bar of gold, Clint Eastwoods character gets the Nazi drunk and finds out more about the gold bar. Anyway he gets the info and location of the bank and decides to go AWOL and take a small platoon of his fellow soldiers deep behind enemy lines to try and find the gold. Its great, if you haven't seen it i suggest you download that shit!

Where eagles dare is also pretty Epic and comes a close second

EDIT: Missed Andro's post as pretty much every post between the poster and Andro was "AMAGAD I LOVE SPR" So fair play to ya Andromeda, someone with actual taste. Three cheers for the classics !
