I’ve always been fascinated by the life story of Helle Nice. Female racing driver of the 20s who worked as a burlesque dancer to fund her passion, including affairs with many of the rich and famous of the time, before having her career ended when she was accused of being a Gestapo spy.

A classic 1980's style slasher movie. No modern effects, all practical. Simple story. Vaguely supernatural villain, creative kills.
Probably would end up going to direct to streaming with today's market.

Technically a series of movies, rather than one, but adaptations of the Prydain series that aren't a hatchet job like Black Cauldron unfortunately kind of is.

TV show but would love for HBO to get the World War Z rights and do a series, 2-3 chapters per episode. Maddening they made a movie of it when the source material has to be spread out for it to make any sense.

“Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park.” A take on Jurassic Park which has a story closer to that of the original novel, and a darker and more somber tone. Possibly also depicting the dinosaurs with more recent theories about what they were like; more explicitly bird-like with feathers, swift rather than plodding movement, etc. The book was ahead of its time on its depictions of dinosaurs being bird like and swift. Just no feathers. One section of the book had the lead scientist wanting to make a new series of “safer” dinosaurs that were plodding and slow. One idea I’ve long had for the concept is for the Raptors to be depicted initially as the Spielberg movie depicts them, as ruthless carnivores who like to kill for the hell of it…only for them to eventually be shown with the intelligence and empathy seen in most modern intelligent bird species, like parrots, crows, or ravens. My twist ending would be: while the Spielberg movie ends with the T-Rex saving the humans from the raptors, “Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park” would end with the Raptors saving the humans from the T-Rex. |
