    Aliens is a better movie but neither are war movies IMO.

    Is this a vote QB?

    Empire involves an actual war.

    The Empire Strikes Back, it's an actual war between good and evil. Aliens is just about which race can wipe out the other first. :Pac:

    Or Aliens is a group of soldiers going to rescue colonists and end up at war with an alien species?

    Who am I to say what is and isnt a war movie. Aliens is great, not a SW fan.

    Also, Jaws is gonna win the whole contest, isnt it?

    What are other wars about?

    Lol, this is gonna be controversial but quickbeam did not indicate that Aliens was her vote. Therefore, Empire Strikes Back wins 5-4

    Dances with Wolves? Why didn’t you just put bambi in there too

    This is a shambles already


    Good morning Vietnam cause there’s an actual war going on


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,088 ✭✭✭Krombopulos Michael


    This is easy

    Good Morning, Vietnam. Williams character was amazing, and the bit when he goes against the censors was brilliant, and when driving off base, he gets up in the jeep and talks to the soldiers being deployed. Brilliant film and one of my faces for Robin WIlliams


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,283 ✭✭✭fixXxer


    Good Morning Vietnam. It will make you roar with laughter and leak with tears. Captures the American side of that conflict very well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Good Morning Vietnam.
    The true horror of war is the people you're stuck out in the bush spending several years with who just won't just the **** up and you're not sure if you're praying for a stray bullet to hit them or you as long as the misery ends.

    It's a massacre - Good Morning Vietnam advances by way of fatality


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,447 ✭✭✭ZV Yoda


    That's not even a fair fight. Good Morning Vietnam. Robin Williams at his best.

    Honourable mention for Kevin Costner's hair in Dance with Wolves. It should have won the special effects Oscar.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,722 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    Ha ha ha ha, Dances With Wolves :p

    Just arrived, what have I missed...?
    Oh, one of my picks beaten by bloody Star Wars

    As I look back, we did not dance with the wolves, we danced with ourselves, and the wolves were us. I should never have been nominated for this vote, Grandma....
