I like the still pics of the crew in the water tank with the model Titanic in A Night to Remember.  It looks likes Land of the Giants meets the Titanic.

Just watched the model ship battle in Ben Hur on Easter. Never gets old

I quite enjoyed the model ship battles in Run Silent, Run Deep and The Enemy Below. Pretty impressive stuff and good movies.

[Colonel Tavington]

Yes, both very good movies.  Enemy Below is my favorite American WWII naval movie, while Sink the Bismarck is my favorite British WWII naval movie. Sink the Bismarck also has very good model work (especially when the Hood blows up).

That's one that I haven't seen in some time. Such an irony that with all its armarment/armor and size it was crippled from torpedo damage and unable to steer.

 

A BF map of the British trying to take control of the wounded Bismarck would have been pretty cool - Board The Bismarck.

Yes! Board the Bismarck mod Nicole!!

Another good wish list battle would be the destroyer vs destroyer action between the British and the Germans in the first battle of Narvik.
