This is a pretty interesting match up...two "Tom" movies that are both pretty "epic". I'm going to have to go with Saving Private Ryan b/c it captures more of a human element than War of the Worlds.

I'm among the minority who absolutely loved War of the Worlds.

"Absolutely loved" is too strong for me, but I really like War of the Worlds. (Watched it again a couple weeks ago, as a matter of fact; enjoyed it.) I might be able to acknowledge here that Private Ryan is the "better" film, and I've even been wanting to see it again, but I certainly would rather watch WOTW any day of the week.

I liked War of the Worlds but Ryan is the "better" film.

"War of the Worlds" is perfect until the third act, where everything begins to fall apart. Personally, I like it better than "Saving Private Ryan" even though I know the latter is the better film. This is difficult for me.

Not even hard for me, War of the Worlds, but SPR is a good movie.

No question here. I don't think I had to think for more than a milisecond on this one...
