Movies maketh the mood

[lastbesthope]

Having splurged a little recently on DVDs, i was wondering what movies put you guys in the mood for a little BF:Evo action. For instance I watched "Who Dares Wins" the night before the doubles tourney.

Here's some movies I'd consider from my collection:

Aliens
Apocalypse Now
Black Hawk Down
Blue Thunder (For when we get Air assets 8))
Dog Soldiers
Full Metal Jacket
Heartbreak Ridge
Space : Above and Beyond
SWAT
Who Dares Wins
B5 season 2 "Gropos"

Anyone else have any other suggestions? That's just the quick picks from my DVD collection

[Greg Smith]

Three Kings
Jarhead

 

[emperorpenguin]

A Bridge Too Far
Starship Troopers
Predator
Band Of Brothers

 

[Sgt. Brassones]

Bravo Two Zero
Lord of War
Tears of the Sun
Team America:World Police :wink:

 

[Gibbs]

Rues of Engagement
Courage Under Fire
Apocalypse Now
The Nest (a Fench movie similar to Assault on Precent 13 but actually good)
2nd in command

I think you could almost expand this to games as well like Ghost Recon etc.

Great list here. I have 3 that I'd have to include to complete it in order of when they happened historically:

Saving Private Ryan
We Were Soldiers
Over There

The last is a little known series that played last season on F/X here in the US. It is about a squad in Iraq. Very current, very well acted, very realistic stories about what happens both at home and on the sharp end of the stick as it were. It is available both just the Pilot, and the entire series on DVD. Get the series, it is well worth it.

cant believe that on these forums one in specific has been missed so far, i know its BF:evo but 3 forums down you have SST, so that has to be the SST movie.
books are also a good thing for this. after reading starwars books etc i like to get on my starwars games.
