Odd choice of movies, seems like several were on the list for flimsy reasons and several missed the list that should have been there. As someone else pointed out the author really has a disliking of Mel Gibson.
I have no problem with 300 not being there, the movie is a campfire story being told by one Spartan to pump up his fellows before battle.
Someone suggested a 10 best historical movies of all time. I say we see what we can put together. While far from perfect and based off the novel "Killer Angels" I suggest GETTYSBURG deserves to be on the list for good historical movies.
Anyone want to add to the list?
