Recently I was watching some old World War II movies. The first movie I watched was 1944's Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo which is about the first bombs that the United States dropped on Tokyo during World War II. The second movie I watched was 1976's Midway which was about a game-changing battle in the Pacific. The interesting tidbit was that at the beginning of Midway, the Japanese generals were mad that the United States had just bombed Tokyo. I was like....."Hey I just watched that movie"....and thus my mind started thinking....which can be scary. I thought it might be cool to do a timeline of World War II movies....so after a month of research here you go.....my World War II movie marathon in chronological order from when the actual event took place.

There are 25 movies in this World War II marathon. Total running time to watch all 25 movies is 3,485 minutes or 58.08 hours or 2.42 days of non-stop World War II action. Each block of information provides the actual date of the actual event, the name of the event or battle, and a brief description of the movie that retells the actual event. I understand that the movies are not always historically accurate but I really feel they do provide a basic background view of some of the most famous events of World War II.
