Patton, hands down!

 

Full Metal Jacket and Band of Brothers.

 

How could you leave this off?

And this one:

One of my all-time favourites (even though it's Welch!)

OK, not a film, but near enough

 

Kelly's Heroes and Band of Brothers, themes of couse D Longest Day and Bridge too Far.

 

BTW, great idea for a thread, Joe.

 

BTW, great idea for a thread, Joe.

I agree absolutely!

The Wild Geese

Joan Armatrading's fine rendition

Sarnt Major Sandy

Alexander Nevsky (Prokofiev kicks ass!!!!!)

Battle On The Ice

Arise, People of Russia (but you have to watch skaters....)

The Wind and the Lion

The Alamo - Deguello de Crocket

El Cid

 

PD - real men don't watch skaters - EVER!

 

I seem to recall the men of action in RONIN watching the skating.

And as for hockey fiends, well there is nothing I can do to save you from their wrath, so consign your soul to your maker, my son....

 

How could I forget this? :doh

Or this?

This makes you want to go over to the Dark Side............

 

 

Dances With Wolves, Apocalypse Now, Platoon

 

I have the BHD musical score, I love those Africanized beats.

 

Soundtrack from "Platoon" stays with you.

 

For those of you who smoked Marlboros, this one is especially endearing theme! :thumb

The Magnificent Seven

 

Band of brother opening music.

 

Apocalypse now or Last of the Mohicans for me.
LOve the band of brothers music too, I remember Catherine Jenkins did an amazing cover:

"Requiem for a soldier"

Last of the mohicans:

 

This is my ALL time favorite! :bravo

Opening score to "the Rock" to include the radio transmissions with General Hummel and his men in trouble during their "black ops". Not quite a "military movie" but by far my favorite soundtrack.

"SIR THEY'RE LIGHTIN' US UP LIKE A FIRE STORM!!!"
"..I WON'T LET YOU DOWN SON, I WON'T LET YOU DOWN"

Q MUSIC!

 

heh found it!

 

"The Eagle has Landed" also has nice opening music, sets in the right mood for this (imo) underrated film:

(even made an easy kitbash of Michael Caine some time ago)

 

I quite like the theme tune from Assault on precinct 13.

 

Awesome thread. Always wanted a background sound track for the store.

 

How could I have forgotten this one?

Gettysburg - My personal favorite Civil War film, taken from the classic Killer Angels.

Theme

The fine visual matching of historical figures and the actors who played them

 

The soundtrack to "Defiance" just recently won an Oscar. I haven't seen the movie, but want it out.
