It'd be a shame if Full Metal Jacket wasn't number one.

I wouldn't be suprised if Saving Private Ryan didn't win either.

Is Johnny's Got a Gun on the list?

As long as Tora Tora Tora is in the top 10 I'll be happy.

Stellar film but I don't know if it'll make top 10 Joel. :upset:

I'm surprised someone even mentioned it :naughty:

I couldn't stand that movie. The portion filmed by the Japanese was great, but the American half of the film was awful.


EDIT:
Not to sound like a dick or anything. This is just strictly IMO.

SPR deserved it. I think FMJ could have been ahead of TGE though.

That's actually a really good list. I wish the Deer Hunter had made top 5 though being the war film that disturbed me the most.

I told you!

Yeah, that's plain wrong. Full Metal Jacket is my favorite war movie.

SPR is good but FMJ is better, i find the first 45 minutes highly funny whilst disturbing at the same time.

The Deer Hunter is such a shitty movie.

And Glory was rated waaay too low, but what should I expect from British people?

The second half of FMJ is a big letdown.
