    I know there is a top 100 movie list that TC voted on a few years back, but as a bit of fun (strange word to use in a thread about War/Anti-War films), as this seems to be the popular theme at the moment, was thinking will compile all the films mentioned in this thread and then everyone can send their rankings to me, and I'm willing to compile these and reveal the overall ranking.

    I'm guessing not everyone will have seen all of the films listed, so vote for say, your top 10 at least, but if you've seen more and want to keep ranking beyond the 10 will count those as well, but if everyone can do at least a top 10? Hows that sound?

    Anyone interested in this?

    Will tag everyone who has contributed to this thread but it's open to everyone.

    The List So Far (and a few others I've added, but there are loads more)

    Have excluded films set in fictional wars (such as Star Wars. Starship Troopers etc), but will leave in fictional stories set in real Wars, if that makes sense? Also the order of films within each war breakdown are in the order they were added to this compilation from this thread.

    Again, if anyone has any other films they want to add, then just post them in this thread and I will add it to the list.

    Will give folks say until 9pm Monday if they want to add any films to the list.

    Once that is done people can start doing their rankings :)
