Waterloo is absolutely jaw dropping. They seriously don't make them like they used to. For better or worse.

[@OnLyCraftthebest]

Kinda helps when its Co-sponsored by Italy and the Soviet Union

[@kingchirpa]

I sure hope it's jaw dropping. It was one of the most expensive movies ever made.

[@dauzlee2827]

They literally had to retrain tens of thousands of Soviet soldiers in Napoleonic warfare

[@skimidot92]

Only Chinese can still do it. But they tend to use CGI too nowadays...

[@Redman147]

Not every day a country's military supplies 15,000 men to be used as soldiers in a historic military film.

[@jakejackson1914]

You got to love the older war films, practical effects and every soldier an actual man in uniform, just so much grander and better than having to rely on CGI which tends to note age well at all and looks dated by the time it comes out.

[@doodlenoodle878]

CGI are only used when the movie makes don't have enough budget if you realized these movies have stunt men which have to act dead. which cost a lot of money not to mention the horses the set etc.

[@koreancowboy42]

CGI is used for when they didn't have enough extras. Even if they did they'd still add for more effects

[@SStupendous]

@@doodlenoodle878 Doesn't cost a lot of money to play dead.

[@blixbelliose3206]

It's certainly noticeable how much better the pre-2000 movies were at telling a visual story. Not sure if CGI is to blame, but I suspect much of the darkness, confusion and shaky cam in the newer movies may be to hide too obvious CGI

[@Lotsof_FPS]

@@blixbelliose3206 immersion

[@toReasonWhy]

Imagine how GODDAM LOUD it would've been inside one of those ironclads.....

[@johnadams-wp2yb]

Waterloo. No CGI. Amazing

[@TOFKAS01]

Nobody could really equal the Waterloo-movie from 1970 until today....Its so intense and full of little details that its really umatched. A pity that there was never a directors cut or an extended version.

[@alphaevolution]

Waterloo is one of my favourite war movies because of the sheer scale of the scenes and that everyone you see is an actor. I wouldn't be surprised if the number of actors are the same as the soldiers who took part in the wars.

[@bigsoap186]

literally an entire soviet cavalry regiment acted as extras

[@Jens-Viper-Nobel]

@@bigsoap186 Much more than that, my friend. Before filming even started, the Russian field engineers rebuilt the entire battlefield to exact specifications of houses and mud roads and hills and slopes. Everything. A massive undertaking as we are talking more than 20 square kilometers of landscape and buildings and what not. And add to that the artillerymen and infantrymen alongside the cavalrymen. On BOTH sides. We are talking at least 2 army sized units taking part in the battle scenes plus all the logistics and food and quarters for the soldiers between filming the scenes, and the aforementioned engineering work. And there is even more to it than the scenes and the filming. All these soldiers had to be taught the tactics and strategies and combat methods of the Napoleonic wars and then train it several times to make sure it worked as planned before dunning the French and German and British uniforms of the time. All of these many thousand Russian troops of every kind deserves a huge applause and admiration. Because they carried the movie, and there wouldn't have been a movie if they didn't work so hard to make it right. I know that we in the west are not particularly fond of praising Russian soldiers, but these soldiers doing such a huge effort and showing such dedication really are a pride to Russia.

[@TH3CAPN]

The British uniform during the empire was just👌

[@banigaru417]

The last samurai, one of my favourite movies, it has been a long time since I watched it.

[@QuinnJACKSON-zx1dx]

Loved all of these movies! Glory had the most amazing ending I have ever seen in a war movie. It was like seeing a classical painting in real time, merged with symphonic music, exploding out of violence with a horrible outcome.

[@cass7448]

Glory's ending really drove home the point of the film: Not only are there things worth fighting for, but there are some things that are worth DYING for.

[@FriendChicken]

Waterloo has 17000 Soviet Infantry and a Brigade of Cavalrymen as extras and it was filmed in Ukraine. No joke.

[@b.r.holmes6365]

The way the ground rises with the underground detonation is astonishing.

[@darkspartan8884]

The last samurai is my favorite Tom cruise movie

[@b.r.holmes6365]

Waterloo is an absolute visual phenomenon.

[@PrinceChaloner]

Please watch Soviet Union version of War and Peace they used 3x times more men in their battles. 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHrMm2CBhpWdj7c

[@tommaxson9798]

Unfortunately, whenever we talk about greatest movies of all time, we all assume it’s got to be a Hollywood film. The same gentleman who directed Waterloo (Steiger is the best Napoleon ever) also directed possibly the greatest film (any genre) of all time. War and Peace 1966 was sponsored by the Soviet Union to show up Hollywood’s version in 1956 (Fonda and Hepburn). Director Sergei Bondarchuk (who also stars in the film) was given almost unlimited control to produce in my opinion, the finest pre CGI film period. Like the novel, the film is also quite long with heavy character build up between battles. The Borodino segment is the finest battle sequence of any war film….period. War and Peace in it’s entirety is a Soviet Masterpiece that can only be found on the Criterion channel.

[@dmitrijpelkov6690]

Сам фильм безусловно хорош, но вот батальные сцены сняты не реалистично. Без компьютерной графики вообще вряд-ли было возможно сделать реалистично. Очень жаль, что у Бондарчука не было тогда такого инструмента.

[@xanderm7231]

I’ve seen Glory and it was a great movie out of all of these I’ve seen The battle of Crater more like the Massacre at the Crater cause Union soldiers got slaughtered And they were told by the General go around the crater don’t go into it which due to the damage being done at the crater the men were shocked had sympathy for the enemy and decided to help the wounded

[@haraldisdead]

That ambush shot from last of the Mohicans (you know the one) is like a moving painting.

[@rebeccajoyner3858]

Glory is the most epic civil war movie ever..change my mind

[@e-0703]

I liked gettysburg, the sountrack of gettysburg beautifull but both are great movies

[@Twitchguy]

Movies like Waterloo Alamo were all 20+ years old by the time I was born & they’re still better than many movies made today 2023! You just can’t beat real special effects and real individual people even with the best cgi. Just captures the viewers attention so well even now

[@morganblack9300]

Wow... Thank you for this EPIC compilation!

[@drvp_3477]

i like how the horse in cold mountain who got knocked out just casually got up and walked away lol

[@commissargab6181]

ya know in future if you keep doing this you get more sub and make an discord server 😂

[@oxanareymers7521]

In my opinion Waterloo is the best movie about Napoleonic times.

[@hris3540]

Superheroes are awesome but what i really wanna see is a connected movie series about the napoleonic wars. It'll all end in waterloo like endgame does. Also they all need to be rated R because nobody's going to understand why cavalry was so effective at the time until they see arms and legs flying off from the sabers, skulls being crushed by hooves.

[@jonathansteel3324]

Ain’t nuthin like the fresh smell of blackpowder and blood in the morning I live for battles like this just you and a musket against the Hordes of Hell

[@peanutwars]

Harder to find movies and scenes of this era so thanks for this !

[@adammac4960]

Waterloo was a masterpiece. Plumber and the actor who played Napoleon should have received Oscar’s

[@georgev4265]

At 10:25 you can see a black British soldier in the background I would say some nice accuracy considering how inaccurate the patriot can be

[@jacobhunt8379]

I watched a documentary one time about the siege of Petersburg, or the battle of the creator, the Union Commanding General in charge of the assault made his men practice for the attack while ex-miners and trench diggers dug that tunnel under the CSA trench, but after the explosion and the attack commenced, the Union forces did not expect to run into a the massive creater or the wall of dirt that stopped them dead in their tracks, at that point it wasn't much of a battle but more of a massacre

[@Jens-Viper-Nobel]

That battle was lost to the Union the minute they started to run forward. Every soldier who knew something about movement and close combat would have been able to tell the commanding officer that they needed to attack on each side of the crater and NOT run down into the crater. They litterally became the proverbial sitting ducks when they did that. The officer who sent them into the crater has to have been a total amateur.

[@jacobhunt8379]

@@Jens-Viper-Nobel in that we are in agreement, but if the commanding general in charge of the siege would have watch and took command like he should have instead of hiding and drinking whiskey then the siege at Petersburg would have been different than it turned out to be

[@Wolfen443]

Wars were fought that brutally before modern times, I wonder if the higher tech, fancier but deadlier weapons today make it more terrifying than actually facing your enemy like back then.

[@johnmalinsnz2090]

In the Last of the Mohicans when the British left the fort in reality they had to give up their arms to the French and were completely helpless when the Native Americans were attacked them.

[@hoangho6781]

[@gr0ke]

old war movies are the best ones because they didnt used CGI, every single soldier was is a actor and every effect is handmade

[@christopheradams5920]

At 10 minutes, the Patriot clip was actually set at the battle of Cowpens in 1780

[@TaZ101SAGA]

Four Feathers is good but you wouldn't be doing volleys against cavalry at almost point blank haha. Independent fire orders would have been given.

[@nicholasgallo3599]

Correction dude the battle scene from the Patriot you featured is actually supposed to depict the Battle of Cowpens fought a few months before Yorktown and it was also an American victory but in real life unlike in the movie the battle was a quick and decisive victory for the Americans

Napoleon didn't have any wish to dominate Europe. It's the allies that faced him with continual war, and Napoleon took advantage from their losses. The only solution was then to dominate continental Europe to isolate UK. Napoleon proposed peace dozen of times but war kept being declared on France.

Just saying but I think that there should have been scenes from my all time favorite movie Gettysburg and the reason it’s my all time favorite movie is because the scenes of chamberlain on little round top where shot on the property of my 4x great grandparents but I also feel that there should have been scenes from the 1991 movie Ironclads which shows the two famous famous Ironclads the Uss Monitor which was built by Swedish born engineer John Ericsson and the ship was built in only 101 days but sadly On New Years Eve 1862 on its way to Beaufort North Carolina off of cape hatteras a heavy storm developed and the monitor foundered and sank but in 1949 it was rediscovered and from 1995 to 2002 the ship was brought back up to the surface and on August 5th 2002 the famous turret of the ship was brought up to the surface but inside the turret archeologists discovered two skeletons and on March 8th 2013 the skeletons were buried in Arlington National Cemetery with full military honors and today you can go see and touch the monitor at the mariners museum in Newport News Virginia but the other famous famous ship in the movie ironclads was the Uss Merrimack(1855) aka the CSS Virginia and how it became a confederate ship is in 1861 the union army was to destroy Gosport navy yard( now Norfolk Naval Shipyard) and on April 20th the U. S. Navy burned the Merrimack or so they thought because on May 28th confederate naval captain French Forrest decided to salvage the wreck of the Merrimack and then on May 30th confederate secretary of the navy Stephen Mallory the decided to convert the Merrimack into an ironclad which would be known as the CSS Virginia and it had Four Muzzle Loading single banded Brooke rifles and Six Smoothbore 9in(229m)Dahlgren Guns which were salvaged from the Merrimack but their was also 7inch (178m) pivot guns that weighed 14,500 pounds(6,600kg) each they fired a 104 Pound(47kg) shell and on March 8th the Virginia sunk the Uss Congress and Cumberland and then on March 9th the Virginia was going to Sink the Uss Minnesota but protecting the Minnesota was a for mentioned Monitor and then after the battle of Hampton Roads On May 9th 1862 The Merrimack aka CSS Virginia was Destroyed however you can still see the Anchor of the Virginia at the Museum of the confederacy.
