I am currently working on a big animation with some other users as part of my company "F-22 Productions". I have some ideas for WW2 movies I could make when I finish this one (or i could make them at the same time), but I can't dicide which ideas to use. Here are some of them:
Defending the Gap A true story about 18 American soldiers in WW2 who fended off 500 German soldiers for a whole day in the Battle of Lanzerath, Belgium.
Yeager Another true story about General Charles "Chuck" Yeager, the first man to fly faster than the speed of sound, based on his awesome autobiography (which I finished reading today).
To Defeat the Enemy Again, the true story of the last major battles of the Pacific campaign in WW2, as told from the perspective of three men: Eugene Fluckey, caiptan of the submarine USS Barb and a Medal of Honor winner. Gordon Bennet Robertson, a B-29 bomber pilot. And John Bradley, one of the 6 men who raised the american flag on Iwo Jima. Fluckey and Robertson both wrote autobigrophys ("Thunder Below" by Fluckey, and "Bringing the Thunder" by Robertson), and James Bradley, son of John Bradley, wrote the book "Flags of our Fathers", which later became a movie directed by Clint Eastwood.
I made up all the names myself (Except "Yeager", which is the name of the book) I have read all these books to (but there was never a book about the Battle of Lanzerath, I learned of that one on wikipedia )
If I did make some of these, they would all exclude any major violence, langauge, or other innapropriate content that took place in real life, to make it scratch appropriate
Which ones do you like best?

I can't say I would like any of them, but the best one would be Yeager

I'd go with the Yeager one. He's a pretty important person in history that a lot of people forget about.

I would choose "Defending The Gap." We have so many heros that are fighting for our freedom right now, that it would be great to honor those who laid down their lives to protect our great nation. It sounds like a great project! Guy

You could make a game out of every one of these xD
But since you're making a movie, I'd say Defending The Gap

I'm surprised no has said "To Defeat the Enemy" yet It's way more challenging in my opinion

Defending the Gap seems quite interesting.
Of course, you could also base something off of Private Ryan, Saints and Soldiers, The Lost Battalion... they are so cool

Saints and Soldiers is awesome. I'm kinda basing my current animation "Behind the Red Line" on it. Except mine is about bomber pilots trapped behind enemy lines in the Battle of the Bulge, not regular troops like in Saints and Soldiers. I haven't seen SVP yet, but I've seen parts from it and know the ending unfortunately I only heard about The Lost Battalion once, and I don't know much about it.

Interesting . The Lost Battalion is kinda of cool to watch. Oh and even though saving Private Ryan is like, R, my Dad only had to fast-foward the beginning part that had D-Day.
Though I'm thinking that would've been one of the best parts for animation inspiration.

I've seen some of that part. People say it's the most realistic battle scene ever made. I already think, and I only saw part of it. It's just plain brutal. WAY to real for animation though.
