I saw Apocalypse Now Redux, have yet to see the original, that was a good movie. 

I really didn't like Inglorious Bastards.  The whole southern accent thing made me pretty mad.
Yes I have taken my shoes off during games.  Yes I have 2 of the same guns. No I am not a little boy...I am in fact female, so don't say "kill the little kid".  No Tanker and I aren't married...yet. Does that dispel all the myths about me? LOL

Ooooo  :), That was a really good movie. I actually had my avatar set to the main dude of that movie once. Lol, my favorite part is where the antagonist (forgive me, I don't remember the names) shot one of the guys while he was jumping across the building.

yeah, that's what I thought about when Ben and I were talking about a certain woman *talk show host on a racy subject* that was an Israeli sniper in '48, and a sniper battle royal that what ensue. LOL.

All of the movies above were awesome except Tears of the Sun.  I was a little disappointed by it.

There is a really old WWII movie called Attack Force Z with Mel Gibson.  Great movie.  Obviously the following as well
The Longest Day(John Wayne being dragged around on a cart is great)
Saving Private Ryan
Band of Brothers series
Force 10 from Navarrone
You name a game, I've been to it.

If I've banned you, then you have more than likely deserved it.

If I deleted a post it didn't need to be there or I simply didn't like it.

Can't decide between Black Hawk down or FULL ... METAL ... JACKET.

The Dirty Dozen is good too, and also The Great Escape.

im surprised that no one has metioned this movie yet its one of my favorites  "windtalkers" with nicholas cage.  of course i have to admit that im a little bias here because my grandfather had a windtalker in his unit in wwII.  he was nicholas cage and was responsible for keeping his from being captured.  the only two people that survived the war from his unit was him and his windtalker.  i watched that movie with him and he said the movie did a good job of portraying what is was like.  other war movies i like are submarine movies again im bias here having been in the sub service myself but enemy below and operation tokyo  and u541 are my favs there

Are you saying that Joe Enders was your grandfather, or are you saying that your grandfather did the same thing that Joe Enders/Nic Cage did?
