Might be true but I feel they all owe legacy to Remarque's story. I have a bit of the same feeling with Dune vs Star Wars, although I admit I never really got into the latter. AQotWF next to being one of the OG war novels I think is really well executed though as a film, imo up there with the best of war dramas. I'll never forget that haunting soundtrack.

I watched All Quiet on the Western Front on Saturday. Hard going. Brutal and extremely gory.
Couldn’t help but feel like I’ve seen all the same sorts of tropes in other films though
