Hmmm...

Most of mine would be historical.

I would like to see one on the Greco-Persian wars. Imagine the 300 Spartans fighting to the death at Thermoplyae, the destruction of Athens, the great naval battle of Salamis...

If they can make Troy, and Alexander, then why not this?

I would like to see a good movie on WWII from the German perspective. I'm fully aware of Stalingrad and Das Boot.

I would like to see another good movie on the American Civil War (I'm a sucker for this topic), but I guess "Gods and Generals" kinda killed that idea.

I would like to see a movie on the FIRST World War.

I would like to see a move on the Making of the Atomic Bomb, based on Richard Rhodes magesterial, Pulitzer Prize winning opus.

I would like to see the remaining three books in James Elroy's LA Quartet made. LA Confidential was excellent. I heard they are making the Black Dahlia, so that's a good start...

I would like to see some of William Gibsons cyber-punk novels done. I guess cyber-punk is kinda passe now?

Mr Mephisto

EDIT: Great thread idea...
