Although not a film:

BLACKADDER - it must be good because thats the only thing we ever see when we go on course!

Worst Film: Blackhawk Down - the true story of a bunch of yanks doing what they do best - getting shot, dragged around the streets and calling it a victory

Apache Gunships 1500 : Somalis 16

Get a grip.

It has to be Zulu; "Do your tunic up, lad, remember where you are," *" REAR RANK FIRE! ADVANCE!"

And, of course, Apocolypse Now. *"Outstanding, Red Leader. *Get you a case of beer for that one."

Wasn't Warriors a film about gangland warfare in New York? Good film but not necessarily a war film (not enough guns).

WAR FILM NEWS FLASH

We've just added the complete Star Wars in South Parkesque cartoon form to the downloads page. *It even includes the music played by the pink things in the bar. *Nice.

Basically gentlemen, you must have it or your lives will not be complete. *

Oh, and this downloads business is a bit new, so let us know if you have any problems (on the admin board or to admin@arrse.co.uk. *Thanks!

Personally I rather like the little known Aussie effort, The Odd Angry Shot.

Excellent training material, particularly for those engaged in inter-arachnid gambling activities.

You're right and I wanted to mention it but just could not remember the name. *Thanks for reminding me.

Plus, although not a war movie, the fighting withdrawal as demonstrated in "Heat" is exemplary stuff. *Lots of double-tapping and changing mags in cover, that sort of thing.

What about the Longest day? Or was it the longest film?

What about Where Eagles Dare! * "Broadsword calling Danny Boy, Broadsword calling Danny Boy ----- Over!"

An absolute classic! It even had Eastwood in it looking sheepish compared to Richard Burton....

F@#K me! Nearly forgot the Guns of Navarone... you know with Richard Nixen and that Greek bloke, no, not Prince Philip.

Bollox film: *Got to be Who Dares Wins - Lewis Collins turned out to be a shirt lifter! I'll bet Bodie and Cowley from the Professionals were'nt impressed when they found that out....
