Full Metal Jacket fooking rooks.

Platoon

Hamburger Hill

and Ya, I actually though Heartbreak Ridge was a great movies as well.

Just watched Kelly's Heros the other night on some old movie channel.

 

My personal favorite and possably Raoul's

Baaa Baaa Black sheep.

The tv series.

 

Sure you don't mean "Black Shhep Squadron"? I loved that show. I used to stay up late at night and watch it with my dad 30 years ago.

 

Full Metal Jacket was good, right up until the Sr. Drill Sergeant got killed... When they went to Vietnam, the movie suddenly started to "suck" for me...

The only good part in that Vietname sequence was in the helicopter... Good, if youappreciate irony- that is... Some lines I remember:

"Get some, get some... Get some!"
"If they run, they're VC. If they stand still, they're well-disciplined VC."

"How can you kill women & children"

"Easy, you don't lead'em as much..."

Once R. Lee Emery got killed, that killed the movie... For me.

 

Sgt York with Gary Cooper

NEWLY

 

Agreed! Pretty good depiction of the Crusades.

 

Yeah; that was a damn-good movie...


Those Arabs were some bad-emmereffers.
