More? It feels like nine out of ten war movies focus on WW2. You can't throw a stone at IMDB without hitting three WW2 movies and a series along the way.

I think they mean new, so people will watch right now and maybe think to stop genociding people and giving power to fascists

The last good ww2 movie was Saving Private Ryan and Schindler's List. 1917 is good also

1917 is good also

1917

I think they were referring to the fact that World War 2 didn't start until 1939. The film 1917 and the year take place during World War 1.

Edited for clarification

This is why 1917 is in another sentence and there's no comma after my first sentence. I would assume most people know 1917 is WW1. I was referring to the comment in this thread of more people needing to see more war movies in order "to stop genociding people and giving power to fascists".

Lmao thank you for that. I was skimming and thought they were just talking about good films about war

Right, it's clearly a movie about the war of 1812
