A Richard Nixon trilogy
Part 1- His rise, first fall and the greatest comeback in American politics.
Part 2- First term and landslide reelection.
Part 3- Watergate

How about some true story sequels? Would love a Falcon and the snow man follow up featuring Falcon s escape from jail, bank robberies, recapture and eventual release. Also one for Jack Black's Bernie, his jail time and release. Others?

It might be a little weird when Richard Linklater, director of the first Bernie, gets involved and lets him stay at his place during an appeal.

Audie Murphys war heroism, film career and PTSD.

Good call.

Maybe a prequel and a sequel to Schindler's List.

Oskar Schindler's life before and after the war was pretty interesting and eventful as well. He started as a German spy/Czech traitor who essentially joined the Nazis to get out of debt but proved very useful in operations to bring Czechoslovakia under Nazi rule. After the war, he had many struggles, especially in Germany where he was seen as a war criminal on one side and as a traitor to the German people because he helped so many Jews on the other. Moved to Argentina for a while and finally ended up depending on the generosity of the people he saved to make a living.

Other than the Colonia movie, have there been many films about the German migration to and presence in Argentina, especially after WW2?

Danny McBride as Ken Carter, the seventies Canadian stuntman who tried to jump a car a mile between Canada and the US. Did he succeed? Well...

Will there be a second cut at some point?

Prolly not. I'd wager 15-20 years before we the first one, optimistically.

I want the movie that it's been rumored that Scorsese and DiCaprio are trying to get made: The Devil and the White City. It's based off the book about two intersecting stories- the Chicago World's Fair, and H.H. Holmes, quite possibly America's worst serial killer who opened a murder castle to prey on those coming to see the fair. Not just for the true crime aspects, I would LOVE to see a recreation of the White City of the fair.

The Port Chicago 50.
I think a book’s been written and documentary made, but no dramatization. And this story’s pretty dramatic.

I once dated a woman. Who claimed she was related to him.

Jean Laffite- pirate, smuggler, mob boss, and last-minute ally to Andrew Jackson in the Battle of New Orleans in the War of 1812... and he was in New Orleans because that was his base of operations. Imagine combining The Godfather, Jack Sparrow, and a war movie, but setting it all in New Orleans at the dawn of the 19th century, with all the weird little quirks of the city and its surrounding bayous - a French colony that was recently owned by the Spanish, purchased by the Americans, and has a weird heirarchy involving race, nationality, parentage, and all sorts of de jure mores and customs of the time.
