The Longest Day, Has John Wayne in it so that trumps color for A Bridge too Far.
Tora! Tora! Tora!
Downfall
I also like many of the others on this thread, I have collected VHS & DVD warmovies since about 1980.
Honorable Mention goes to:
Guadalcanal Diary,
Saving Private Ryan,
Air Force,
They Were Expendable,
Hitler, The Last Ten Days,
Hamburger Hill,
They Were Soldiers,
Das Boot,
Winter War,
Wake Island,
The Story of Dr. Wassell,
Blackhawk Down,
Pork Chop Hill,
Gettysburg,
Dogs of War,
A Bridge Too Far,
Patton,
Beau Geste,
Glory,
Gunga Din,
Away All Boats,
A Walk in the Sun,
The Alamo, with John Wayne...
And a few dozen more I could mention. Every one of these caused me to buy more army men, more ships, more tanks, more trucks, more airplanes. I find war movies to be very inspiring. MRS Bunkermeister and I watch at least one a week, sometimes several back to back. If you have never seen any of these, then go rent them, buy them or watch them on youTube.
