I would have put the opening battle of "Gladiator" on the list.

Oh yes, I was really irritated at “300”. absolutely terrible history. The Spartans were dressed like professional wrestlers.

Also the Empire’s storm troopers have the most useless armor ever invented. They were also among the world’s worst shots. Ever noticed that in the movies, good guys always wear vests?

Battle of The Pelennor Fields

That was cosmic for me back in 2003.

Sadly it has ruined every fantasy movie since then because the creators have felt the need to do large battles without the proper build-up. (See The First Chronicles or Narnia or OZ: The Great and Powerful)

The 10 Best Fictional BattleJoel C. Rosenberg s

The question as asked is schizophrenic. Historical fiction? Future speculation extrapolating real history? What?

If it's fictional battles, Star Wars counts I guess; if it is counted, I am looking forward to the proposed inevitable final battle which I understand has had film rights bought:

The nuclear exchange between good and evil in the Middle East, with Russia surreptitiously setting up the final fear scenario through assassinating leaders of both sides, between Israel and the koranimals.

The film should be a special effects master's dream.

Based on the very popular novels series by Joel C. Rosenberg.
Fair warning : supernatural intervention plays a major role.

I would go with the Civil War composites portrayed in 1) Red Badge of Courage, and 2) The Patriot.

‘Dune’ was astoundingly dumb in this manner, as in most others.

Battle of Serenity Valley, however.....
