    Napoleon was of average height, so if you surround DDL with 6' guys, presto!

    I thought the same, but that could be fixed. Age difference could be harder...

    Yes

    1 - A Feature film about the heroic journey of a young man and his best friend friend during the millennial high school era. Been working on it 9 years.

    Is that a joke?

    If I were going to make a film, it would be about Napoleon's russian campaign. The heroic march, conquering Smolensk and Moscow, and how the war turns against an invisible enemy and the freezing winter when trying to reach back Smolensk (which they found out was devastated) and friendly lands. 

    It would be a contraposition of patriotism-survival, blind faith in a leader, comraderie-desperation, the human limits, the homeless, the importance of soldiers in a big scale war... If you ever read about it, it has a lot of food for thought.

    War and Peace  peace would be a 25 hour movie

  • If I were to try to go LeBron with the winning money and try to become a Hollywood movie producer,   I would be more into producing TV series, and here are a few of the things I would try to produce for the likes of HBO, Showtime, Starz...or others:

    A. A 3 season run based on Bernard Cornwell's Warlord Chronicles,   his 3 book "Historical fiction" series that covers what he believed would have been what could have been the story of the person we know as King Arthur.  (though, in his book he was never King....he was a Warlord....more like a Shogun, to use an analogy)

    B. Lincoln County.    Again a 3 season series based on the life/times of Billy the Kid and the events that took place in Lincoln County, New Mexico back in the 1880s, I believe.  The stories of  a lot of people beyond just BTK  were involved in that saga.  I have been there and have done some reading about it.  (think something similar to the Deadwood Series)

    C.  A science fiction series based on the first three books...chronologically...of the Dune Series.  Call it maybe Dune: Origins.  These books are known as the Butlerian Jihad, the Machine Crusade, and The Battle of Corrino.   These events took place like 10,000 years before the events of the original Dune book.  It explains the genesis of the Atreides/Harkonnen feud. 

    D. Plus, maybe do a series on a Rock n Roll band that played during the 70s and early 80s in the Heart of Rock n Roll....Cleveland Ohio area.  Based roughly on a true story.   Guess which band that would have been.

    Crazy, isn't it?

    Growing up within walking distance of it, that's surreal. I know so many people that were involved one way or another with that day.
