That's a beautiful list. The Infernal Affairs trilogy is one of the greatest trilogies of all time
Haha, for real.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
Just thinking about thriller is giving me a headache... It's gonna be really hard.
I love so many horror films but there are clearly 5 that I always go back to... Thriller there are so many

I guess I can Chuck that into crime and open up a spot in thriller.
Hmmm...I think they're a tad overrated. Have you seen My Sassy Girl? Must admit I enjoyed it.
It's gonna be a shame when the final 25 are all Hollywood movies
1. The Good The Bad & The Ugly
2. The Pianist
3. The assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford
4. Inglourious Basterds
5. 1917
Might edit Pianist out and put that in drama..

Oh ffs I forgot The assassination
I left it out by choice (it'd have been my number 6) and it's torturing me.Oh ffs I forgot The assassination
If this film doesn't win for this one scene then cinema is truly dead
It's on my list.
No, not really into movies that bill themselves as romantic though.
Haha yeah, but it is to be expected with some of the people on this site.It's gonna be a shame when the final 25 are all Hollywood movies
1. Das Boot
2. Schindler's List (if that's a war movie?)
3. Die Brücke (The Bridge) - original, not remake
4. Apocalypse Now
5. Inglorious basterds
Deer Hunter as the fifth if Schindler's List isn't a war movie.

I would have voted for Ran, but I didn't think that would be considered a war movie (despite containing some of the most stunning battle scenes ever put on film).
Not with you on SPR though. Except for the opening sequence, which is ground-breaking and magnificent, I just find it really, really poor - both as a story and particularly in its depiction of battle, which towards the end is downright ridiculous. Both the best and the worst of the genre rolled into one!
The thing about SPR is it had decent focus on the characters. I struggle with war films because I can't tell who is who when they're in military gear with helmet on.
That was one of the few war movies where I know who is who

Well, if that's the bar, then you've got a point!
Haha yeah I'm just not a big fan of war films or westerns but they are big genres. I struggled to find up with more than the ones I listed.Well, if that's the bar, then you've got a point!
To be honest I don't even like 4&5 that much. Probably should have put Overlord in there... I'm fact I'm gonna do that.
I wanted to put Deer Hunter as well over The Pianist. Technically yes Schindlers and Pianist are war movies but I'd say they're stronger dramas.
- Saving Private Ryan
- Inglourios Basterds
- Hacksaw Ridge
- Dunkirk
- 1917
Exactly.
1 Unforgiven
2 Hell or High Water
3 Thin Red Line
4 3:10 to Yuma
5 Master and Commander

There is war in Lord of the rings…. Just saying.
I was going to put There Will Be Blood in my 5 but it doesn’t fit a traditional western.
Only 6 points between two big hitters sitting in 5th & 6th... I wonder if any more votes will come in to change that.
1- Apocalypse Now
2- Inglorious Basterds
3- Full Metal Jacket
4- Django Unchained
5- Saving Private Ryan
Saving Private Ryan only makes it because without that we don't get Band of Brothers.
