thewhyteboar 7,494 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Saw this thread and it was fun to read the replies. I think a massive miniseries following the life of Napoleon would be incredible. From his adolescence all the way to exile. What about you? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's a Korean movie about him. The Admiral: Roaring Currents - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG I think it's on Netflix. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gamer.tv 1,294 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 After reading a small amount about it, I would find a very accurate representation of slavery as it operated in the United Kingdom - supporting the trade across the world - just to gain more of a view about it. Or, the Witch hunts in England that proceeded those in the US. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spawn_of_Apathy 1,634 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Maybe when Matthew Perry went to Japan to open up trade. It seemed to be a bigger deal in Japanese history than US history. If we covered it all in history classes it was maybe a paragraph.

I am really surprised this hasn’t been done already with Tyler Perry, Opra, or Jordan Peele as executive producer of the project. more than ever we all should learn about that time period in US history and the contributions of African Americans and that they weren’t just waiting for white people to give them things. Sure there are books, but for reaching a wide audience, you just can’t beat a well produced limited series show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Keyser_Soze 11,429 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Anything about the Sumerians. Doesn't seem like there are many movies on this subject. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5timechamp 306 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Neerja Bhanot... I know theres already a film about it. But its a story worth telling again with even more heightened tension. Carlos Hathcock.. film, cause yup Any story covering events during the Trump administration... there is so much cruelty and malice in this time that any topic will do: Cruelty at the border, Assault on Capitol, Charlotte, Cult of personality around Trump, Jamal Khashoggi, the election itself...... the more the better, turning the page on this period without truly baring it all for us to see would not be wise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
