Written By: Tia on 08/30/08 at 9:13 am

since i already did kung fu and car chases, here's a great war movie moment.

manly man movie moments from tia! notice how ebert makes a complete ass out of himself here, and the sadly late siskel hits a homer, movie interpretation wise.

anyway, post war movie clips here and i'll love you forever. paths of glory, anyone?

p.s. this is a shoutout to you, mushroom. i bet you know of some fine war movie moments i've never heard of, and i promise no partisan bickering.

well there was some of that fighting for suspicion and gold of various kinds as well but occasionally we actually did seem to have nobler purposes.

added: i think this clip must be present. unless you haven't seen saving private ryan or would like to revisit it, you can skip this one. but you probably know it.

and here is kubrick's first masterpiece. you can have "the killing."

paths of glory. notice the stunning staging of extras, sets, and pyrotechnics. for 1957, totally groundbreaking. and make sure to stick around for the shocking conclusion, you'll be filled with rage.
