No Black Hawk Down? One of my favorite movies. I don't remember much about The Thin Red Line, but i remember that it sucked.

No Starship Troopers?

No Star Wars?

Many of those are movies set during wartime. That does not make them war movies. Interesting anti-war flavor to the list as well.

I noted that too, it's more evident when you read the comments with each listed movie.

[Goldenhands]

No Dirty Dozen?

Maybe the list should be split into War Movies an Anti-War Movies.

Three Kings is there, because Clooney will be one of the talking heads on the show. You know, those people who rave about movies while reading their lines off a teleprompter. All list shows have them.

No "Midway"? No "Tora! Tora! Tora!"?

AN is #1?!
