Off Topic War films

I love war films and fancy watching one tonight to cheer myself up abit.

Can anybody recommed a really good one please. Ive seen Saving private ryan before anybody suggests it.

 

Caualties of War with Sean Penn & Michael J Fox.
Pretty harrowing.

 

I really like The Thin Red Line but I wouldn't say it's one to cheer you up. Very good underrated film that I reckon.

Inglorious Basterds is fun if you haven't seen it, I've got it on the planner to watch soon.

 

Where Eagles dare, a bit aged now but with Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood you are getting a quality film. One of my favourites for the action and scenery, coupled with the fact that an old mate Derren Nesbitt plays the bad man..

 

Ive seen both of them mate.
Inglorious basterds is class!

 

Born Survivor is the best in years.

Fury is also brilliant.

 

I remember you having that on video when i was a kid.

 

Yes, on DVD now, took some getting the cast to move with the times like..

 

A bridge to far

 

Top drawer..

 

Aye beats taking the tabs out of video incase somebody accidentally tapes over it .

 

Yep

Expecting Mr Burton, get Mr Corkhill lol..

 

Hurt Locker is also class.

I'm just assuming you've seen all the classics.

Also a new film, War Dogs. Not about war, really it's about a pair of arms dealers based on a true story, funny and incredible in parts.

 

.

 

Brought up my Granda, Joe. I've got a stack of war films on DVD. He also introduced me to films like Zulu and The Green Berets.

I miss that bloke a lot.

Good to see you about, mate.

 

Im not really sure what i have or havent watched mate. Im shyte with names of films.

 

Did you ever find out what the Jordash family had underneath them patio flags?

Just about to watch Des Lynam present this week's goals... then you'd get a little bit of a fuzzy screen then "Let's hear about these three gorgeous girls from Our Graham"... FFS!!

 

Likewise mate and great to see you again..

Zulu is one of my all time favourite Christmas films but more so that I was a massive fan as a kid of Stanley Baker and James Booth..

You had Caine in there too and Jack Hawkins..

Brilliant film..

 

Lone Survivor then mate. Mark Wahlberg. Brilliant film.

 

Jordashe's had their shed buried down there mate..

Typical scousers, never happy and bury anything..

I wouldn't care Tel, it was a cool shed, mid oak creosote too.....aaaaargh getting hard here..
