Be it medieval warfare,ancient warfare, modern , futuristic whatever.
What is your favourite war movie, this thread is generally directed to the guys.

Mine has got to be "Kingdom of Heaven" the crusades were fucking badass and this movie historically represents them well.

the only good scene in troy was the beginning, swapping troy for enemy at the gates would make it a nice list

i thought the main difference between the regular and redux apoc now is the redux adds that (completely extraneous, hour-long, boring) segment where theyre with those french people?
