As for Vietnam, Mel did one about that already, Air America. For several reasons it was hard for me to remember that one because they really tried to make it into a comedy. I fail to see any comedy being associated with the Vietnam war. Wait, .... and then there's Robin Williams in Good Morning Vietnam... but, that's another story and THAT movie was funny.

I hesitated seeing Pearl Harbor(the spark that included us in that fire: WWII) at the theatre, but may rent it when it comes out on vid/dvd.
