1. best? all quiet on the western front. great film.

2. worst? does alexander count?...no?   i'll say pearl harbor was pretty awfully too.


3. best performance? - john wayne, sands of iwo jima.  heh. just loved that one growing up.


4. best line - Ted Striker: My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar.
Elaine Dickinson: When will you be back?
Ted Striker: I can't tell you that. It's classified.
- airplane! not a war movie...but it is a war scene.


5. remake?  that's easy.    

the longest day.

Id agree with tapakegs except #5.  

   Midway or The Battle of the Bulge should be re-made. Especially Midway.
