In TF, it's no secret that Jack was involved in the Vietnam war, so I'm looking for lots of inspiration and references via films. So far I've got:
Full Metal Jacket
Apocalypse Now
Platoon
Hamburger Hill
The Deer Hunter
What I want to know is are there any other good films about Vietnam missing from those titles? I've heard of 'Causalties Of War' but the fact it has Michael J Fox in it puts me off a bit, anyone seen that? Any other titles you can recommend?
Thanks in advance 
Full Metal Jacket and Apocalypse Now are one of the best films ever 
Love the opening scene in Apocalypse Now with the doors playing on the background
Yes, it's an excellent intro!
I just remembered 'Born On The Forth Of July' and as a related horror note 'Jacob's Ladder', both of which I've never watched 
Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam
is a great documentary
Casualties of War. It's good stop being a douche and watch it. 
Tigerland
Born on the Fourth of July
Heaven & Earth
Rescue Dawn
R-Point

Was gonna post this.
Apocalypse Now is one of my all time favorite movies. Killer movie. I recommend watching Hearts of Darkness (The making of apoc now).
Also try the tv series "Tour of Duty".

Good morning Vietnam..
Haha yeah, poor Francis Ford Coppola
I dunno, Born of 4:th of July, isn't that most about when he comes home and how he is treated. I't not llike it is a war war movie. It is great though but war movie?
Tropic Thunder
I was waiting to see how long it would take for someone to mention that one
