Biopic that you would like to see made?

[North East Goon]

I suggest one for Adolph B. Spreckels III (aka. Bunker Spreckels) He was a talented surfer in the 70's who was heir to the Spreckels Sugar fortune. Also was stepson of one Clarke Gable. He acquired a 50 million inheritance at a yound age and spiralled into a life of jet setting,debauchery and died at 27 years old of a heart attack.

If you think that's crazy, wait until you read about this guy:

pfffft, make an effort....

He fought in the Boer War, World War I, and World War II; was shot in the face, head, stomach, ankle, leg, hip and ear; survived a plane crash, tunneled out of a POW camp, and bit off his own fingers when a doctor wouldn't amputate them. He later said "frankly I had enjoyed the war."

Jack Churchill. But only if it's an epic three-hour extravaganza.

Best line of the movie: "If it wasn't for those damn Yanks, we could have kept the war going another 10 years."

I said the same thing so I did some googling, and for the most part it true. I think some of the numbers are off but capturing the whole town on his own as well as the Korea thing is true.

How have I never heard of this guy?

Hes like a less subtle Batman or something, or Rambo

Kubrick was preparing to make an epic Napoleon film, but made Barry Lyndon instead. I think an American TVnetwork produced a mini-series and he got fed up and scrapped the project.
I also remember Vin Diesel was going to star and produce a Hannibal movie, but his career went in the tank and a couple other historical epics bombed at the box office.
