"If you grew up in the United States, you probably learned American history. Heck, even if you didn't grow up in the U.S., you probably learned American history. Colonialism, revolutions, wars, slavery, civil rights, women's rights, scientific innovation, etc.—a lot of stuff happened that we know about. And while we keep making movies about WWII and musicals about the American Revolution, there are a ton of stories in American history that are ripe for adaptation. Here we humbly suggest six stories that depict people and places in the past that we would want to see on the big screen…"

How about just one movie about a transgender who becomes an unknown hero of the Revolution, writes a self-published book on the struggle,wins the Nobel and later is elected president of Spain only to fall to the rages of an influenza epidemic. |

I would go to a movie about the people who volunteered to go fight the ebola epidemic in Africa a few years ago. They put their lives at risk just to help ordinary people. That is heroism. |

"How about just one movie about a transgender who becomes an unknown hero of the Revolution, writes a self-published book on the struggle, wins the Nobel and later is elected president of Spain only to fall to the rages of an influenza epidemic." So, you mean… any given night on American "reality" TV. |

They lost me at If you grew up in the United States, you probably learned American history. Heck, even if you didn't grow up in the U.S., you probably learned American history If you grew up [Earth], you probably had to memorize some facts about American history out of context. |

Yep. The blind men examining the elephant syndrome. But some blind men don't want to rotate with the others and risk expanding their knowledge. They are completely fixated on the smelly tail end of the elephant. And they really, REALLY want all the other blind men to think that is all there is to the elephant. The elephant might eventually get tired of that too! :) Dan

Except for TR, I would not care to view any of the others. What little history they teach in American schools these days, I'm sure, drill these themes into the children's noggins ad nauseum. I'm so glad my formative years were in the '60s. (Rant off.) |
wonders why create different 3D models, if you can create one that can be customized?
