I was going by movies I enjoy and can watch over and over. Private Ryan fucking sucks (sorry, not a fan of WWII shit and besides the beginning, that movie just doesn't do anything for me) and we're not big WAR movie guys. We chatted about that prior to recording. And we knew we'd get shit for forgetting/hating flicks. Plus shit like this is just so damn subjective. I was more surprised that we agreed on most of our flicks."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

I understand your hangup about war movies but you are leaving a big section out. Mainly because The Hurt Locker is that good.
Platoon is not an action movie, nor is Saving Private Ryan. War movies are their own deal."Everything is amazing right now and no one is happy" - Louis C.K.

See, and this was ACTION. And if we would have allowed all movies that feature action to be included our lists would have been different (martial arts, war, etc). But I really do not dig on WAR movies. Just not my bag."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

I can't think of them in terms of who out ranks who. But as for action movies:
Die Hard
T2
Predator
Die Hard 3 to a lesser extent.
The Rock
Con Air
Hard Boiled
True Lies
Speed
That sort of thing. I know the Bourne movies are supposedly great, but the shaky cam turns me off so much."Everything is amazing right now and no one is happy" - Louis C.K.
