Oh, and favorite series, either Band of Brothers or The Pacific.

Just a few!

The Cruel Sea
Ice Cold in Alex
Battle of Britain
Battle of the River Plate
Reach for the Sky
Angels One Five
12 O'clock High
Cockleshell Heroes
In which we serve
Sink the Bismarck
Dark Blue World
Dunkirk
Das Boot

Again, I think remakes shouldn't be made - especially BoB - there aren't the aircraft or the actors! I also like films in black and white! ;-)

Enemy At The Gates

Exactly two pages out of the book of the same name.  And then they changed it up.  Could have been a great film had they actually read the book.  Instead it was awful.
