[HHJ]

I really like all of these but clearly the Omaha beach battle carries the most emotional weight. It being an actual real battle that happened puts it over the top,but also how undramatic the horrific deaths are depicted... Game changer.

 

[TardStrong]

Heat for sure. It still to this day is the gold standard of gun battles

I could see how you could make a case for Saving Private Ryan but dont come with that LOTR bullshit

 

[HHJ]

but dont come with that LOTR bullshit

Nah.

Gandalf's helm's deep charge is hot fire

 

[TardStrong]

Nah.

Gandalf's helm's deep charge is hot fire

It was cliche at best.

Happy it only has 12.5% of the vote

 

[MLarson]

Saving Private Ryan

 

[HHJ]

It was cliche at best.

Yo mama

 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Beach Landing by a longshot.

I dont think anyone will make a battle scene as realistic and brutal. Its so good yet so damn horrific and sad at the same time. Spielberg is a genius when it comes to capturing raw emotion on film.

 

[zapataxiv]

Heat by fanboy love
but SPR should run away with this

Spielberg is retard when it comes to anything that requires nuance.

 

[deucesarewild]

Nah.

Gandalf's helm's deep charge is hot fire

Every horse in that charge would have shattered their ankles and broke their necks. Horses can't charge down a slope that steep at that speed, and they certainly never rode that compactly together because any missteps or definitely the halt when the front ranks are absorbed by the formation they are charging would fuck up every horse behind them.

This is useless military history, but a charge was a looser formation than people might think. You want to stagger your 2nd 4rd etc. ranks behind your first so they flow into the enemy line and the ones behind them have time to slow and then pick away at openings made by the foremost ranks.

Not gonna lie. Was a sweet charge though.

Middle Earth Horses can do all that shit bud. Shadowfax bless.

I have no idea what you were planning to achieve with this. Perhaps you should go make a film and show him how. Show us all for that matter. Oh wait.

If they had wings though

 

[HARRISON_3]

My heart says Heat but by brain says SPR.

 

[Blue_Ribbon]

Saving private Ryan hands down.

 

[mmamxfan]

I can't even understand how The Lord of Rings is even in the running, let alone the final 3. I've never and will never see any of those movies, as I'm not a D&D fantasy dork. I just don't get it but I also have always had a social life. Haha
