This is just taking a pulse and not binding. I could very easily have put Raiders and Silence in my top 10. Zulu is one of the best epic war films ever. Right there with Lawrence IMHO.

Zulu is fucking awesome. Problem is that is definitely dated, particularly the pacing and 'special' effects. It took my boys a couple tried to get it, but when the finally did, they love it.

Most of my list are the ones that if I see them on the Dish guide, no matter what time of night or where the movie is when I find, I'm watching and can't turn it off.

Agree. "Pacing" is the biggest drawback of Zulu. It's from a different era of film making in this respeck.

But this is arguably one of the greatest battle scenes of all tim. Notice the bolt action in the lower right corner. They must have had a shortage of Martini-Henry rifles for the production.

This was the actual rifle used at Rourke's Drift...

 

[Neighbor2972]

Airplane
Alien
Before Sunrise/Sunset
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
Good Will Hunting
Heat
No Country for Old Men
Silence of the Lambs
The Dark Knight
The Departed

I should have a Tarantino movie but I can't pick between Pulp Fiction/Reservoir Dogs/True Romance

And it I think most captures the spirit of how shitty life was as a Sailor back then. Horrific. I'd rather be shelled in a foxhole then broadsided from the gun decks. Jesus that took balls you would have to haul around in a wheelbarrow to hold your nerve for that shit.
