I haven't seen this movie before, but it seems like a really cool scene. Could you provide some
context for what we're seeing here?

A career commander gets transferred from another warzone to take command of a new unit that will
launch a VERY important surprise attack on the Americans soon. He's afraid that the guys under
his command are essentially under-trained fanatical kids given the fanciest toys his army has,
and that they'll all get blown up and their tanks will be wasted. The soldiers go on to sing
"Panzerlied"; essentially the German version of "The Army goes rolling along" but all about tanks
and tank crewman and GOTTA GO FAST GOTTA FIGHT FAST BLITZKRIEG!
The commander realizes his troops are all turnt up and gets hype too.

Huh. Well that's actually rather neat. It seems like an American movie, too, but told from a
non-American perspective. That doesn't seem possible. What is this movie's name?

"The Battle of the Bulge"
And you're half-right. It's an American movie, and the actors are American, but there are two
groups of main characters; the German sneak-attack guys and the bunch of Americans who get
sneak-attack'd.
The German tanks they keep calling "King Tigers" are actually American tanks IRL, but since all
the real King Tigers got blown up, they just played pretend for the sake of budget.
Other than that, and the cheesy "GAAAAAAHHHH, they got meh!" way people "die", where they just
dramatically fall to the ground without any special effects, the movie's HELLA good.
