I recently bought the directors cut of the Big Red One. Haven't watched it yet, but remember seeing it many years ago.

Who could forget Lee Marvin and Toshio Mifune in Hell in the Pacific. That was a good one too. The ending kinda sucked, but the rest was great.

Picture Enemy Mine set in the Pacific Islands with a Japanese and American. Similar idea.

Good call on that one Wildcat. One of my favorite movie lines is from Heartbreak Ridge

"Why don't you lie there and bleed awhile before I show you some real pain."
