Dementeleus Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lChJz2DSpsEIt's the final part which sells it, a detached tracking shot of the horde progressing from the Turkish camp through the town to the sea that amplifies the scope of what the Bedouin surprise attack was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Opening sequence in Saving Private Ryan. I always thought the ending battle in the destroyed town was 100 times more brilliant and spectacular from a directorial point of view, it is incredibly virtuositic, a lot of shit happens and yet you are never lost in all this chaos and mayhem.

DAR Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Battle of Fort Wagner in Glory.Unfortunately the clip I was looking wasn't available. But the scene of them marching to the battle and the soldier yells give em hell 54 and the other soldiers yell back the same thing, I'm actually getting emotional just typing it.

lilmac Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) Helms Deep and Pelennor fields have been mentioned so I'll go with: Battle of Black Gate Gandalf vs the Nazgul Edited March 9, 2014 by lilmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I watched a low budget movie called Iron Clad the other day, there's a battle in which a man rips off someone's arm then starts beating him with it, it was a nice edition and for that I think it deserves a mention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 The tank battle at the end of SPR is also great (although it's much smaller scale than these other scenes, of course). My unpopular opinion would be, Saving Private Ryan final battle >>>> Beginning D-day battle. How they managed to film that tank battle in just one shot was pretty amazing, Spielberg and Alfonso are pretty similar in that respect.

4815162342 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Good one. I thought about Promontory as well but decided against it since it's more of a chase/fight than a "battle." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalel009Shel Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I would make a poll but so many suggestions. I go with Helms Deep from Lord of The Rings I agree with your Lord.... LOTR 2 was my favorite of the franchise and one of my all time moments is the battle of Helms deep. I also think Avatars Pandorians vs the might of the humans is spectacular and the falling of Home Tree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
