The eotwawki epic, Lights Out. Also, I would like to see an Indiana Jones-style historical fiction about Teddy Roosevelt rough riders, carving out national parks, African safaris....

 

 

They are making a movie. David has got real investors now and it tripled the budget. There's a thread about it on ARFCOM

Bloody Friday off Guadalcanal. More sailors died fighting the Japanese fleet, at night, with their big guns, than Marines fighting on the island.  So many ships were sunk off Guadalcanal that they named in Iron Bottom Sound. This was some of the bloodiest fighting of World War II. The Japanese chose to fight at night when the US Navy and Marine aircraft couldn't fly. The Japs had a secret weapon called the "Long Lance" Torpedo which ran on oxygen.

The US Navy was out numbered, out gunned and out trained. The Japs underestimated our resolve and courage.

 

There also should be a well made, great director movie about the Koren War, (the forgotten war). Not enough movies about that.

I would like to see a good remake of Thubder Road. I would also like to see good movies about the Battle of Blair mountain and the battle of Athens.


This explains Blair Mountain

Ouch. Damn good thought. I just bought a second copy of it as I don't expect to get mine back from brother-in-law. He lent it out after borrowing it from me. That was almost 2 years ago, and the guy he lent it to did the same.
 
But back on track, that would be a great but thoroughly depressing movie.
 
I'd put right up there with On The Beach. And that's one of the all time best.


I have a copy I'd send to anyone on here that wanted to read it. Awesome book that will bring tears to your eyes. I very much get into the stories I read, but this one left me feeling drained. I couldn't even pick up another book for days.
