I loved the storming the beach sequence in 'Saving Private Ryan'. It is superbly done.

A couple of my favorite WWII dramas are 'The Longest Day' and 'Band of Brothers'. I consider 'BoB' to be one long awesomely made film. (Although certain parts are better than others.)

Spoiler:
Early in the film, Professor X talked about whether it was ethical to inhabit a comatose man's body. If you remember, Moira McTaggert was the doctor in that quick scene. At the end of the film, we see Moira at the man's bedside and the man says, 'Moira?' and we hear Patrick Stewart's voice. She then says, 'Charles?' and then it cuts to black.

X-3: I think a big thing that was missing from this film was one main story. It seemed like several stories all patched together. The other two films main focus was Wolverine, this one centered in on several issues throughout. There's the Jean Grey 'Dark Phoenix' storyline, the Magneto 'fight the cure' storyline, the Storm 'takes over the school' storyline, the Rogue/Iceman/Kitty Pride love triangle, the Angel and jerky father storyline, the Leech 'I want to be free' thing... But being such a huge fan of the X-men since I was a kid, I liked what they did. It played like a comic book. And that's fine, I guess.

I don't know if it's just me, but I cringe when they off characters in the X-Men movies. Even the bad guys...
