AFI (American Film Institute) periodically release their "Top 100 American Films" in several genres, like comedies, thrillers, inspirational films, etc. I'm working on a list of the best War movies of all time and have come up with 50 films that deserve recognition. Unlike AFI, I don't limit my selections to just American films, so let me know what your favorites are, regardless of their country of orgin. :)
