Schindler's list, 1993.
Apart from that, you must have watched a different Private Ryan, since apart from the first 20 minutes, it's all flag waving heroism. Guy doesn't give a shit about his grieving mother or his dead brothers. His company is his family now and of course he will go on fighting, since he's your usual cardboard hero to present an ulterior motif.
You should watch some war movies from the early 70ies at some time, to really put things into perspective. From back when Reagan was nothing but a bad dream and society was as opposed to war as it gets.

The Jesus fairy tale is an improvement on the Moses fairy tale. Moses never knew his father and his mother kicked him out to be eaten by crocs when he was a baby. She kept her son Aaron. Jesus knew his father but his father wasn't his real father. His real father was a dead beat dad. His mother kept him but immediately forgot that he was supposed to be God's son, although a angel had told the dumb bunny that before she got pregnant. She later thought that he was nuts.

She went back for a short while, and wrote this "Christ the Lord" novel. Now she openly states that she wants nothing to do with the Catholic Church, and claims to believe in God, but not much more. Her son Christopher is gay, and she is a champion for gay rights. And yet, she is "very excited" for this film.
Hmm. Well, it's probably going to make her a boatload more money. So she's supporting it. Too bad she can't just come out and say "this is fiction, folks" though.
Sleeping Beauty will never be the same after Anne.

another Jesus WAY TOO pretty for his own good:

Finally, a role that makes even tepid Christian Bale look hot:

I saw the last 10-20 minutes of it when it was on one of the movie channels a couple weeks ago. I found it hard not to laugh as Brad Pitt did his best "Ain't I deep and manly" Scott Stapp impression. Only thing missing was some shitty Creed song playing during the final fight/massacre.
