Part I: Favourite Armoured Battle in a War Movie?

RE: Part I: Favourite Armoured Battle in a War Movie?
At the risk of not being taken seriously, I have always had a sweet spot for the climactic battle in Kelly's Heroes, when Odd Ball's Easy 8 Sherman (modified to be faster than any other tank in the ETO, forwards or backwards) takes out 2 Tiger I's in a classic game of urban cat and mouse. For a comedy movie they took the time to make the vehicles realistic (alright the Tiger is a little snub nosed) and the engagement plausible, even to include the reactions of Oddball and his crew, hippie buffoons the whole movie, when faced with the threat that was three Tiger I's, became steely eyed professionals. For a great many reason's Kelly's Heroes remains a perennial favorite on my Top 5 list.
