Biopics You'd Like to See

[Hobgoblin]

I've been reading the biograpghy "Young Stalin" and I have to say, it reads like a novel. As the title says, its about Joseph Stalin before he become dictator of the Soviet Union. I'm looking forward to it, even if the director doesnt plan on being 100% faithful to the facts.

Are they really gonna beat End of the Century though? That is one of the best music documentaries ever, as I'm sure you know. Kick-ass user name by the way!

 

[lime]

I would like to see a new Al Capone biopic.

 

[darkseid26]

Eric Clapton...

 

[Wesley Dodds]

Great idea for a thread.

I'd like to see a Bill Hicks biopic (but not that terrible sounding Crowe/Howard one) A proper one, based on the American Scream biography.

I'd like a Nikola Tesla biopic, too.
That right there was one interestin' guy.

 

[Kent]

I'd like to see another attempt at a Richard Feynman biopic.
Matthew Broderick's "Infinity" was pretty decent, but not much more I'm sad to say.

I'm sure a good (if not great) Carl Sagan biopic could be made as well.

 

[Compi716]

From Judd Apatow and starring Christian Bale.

Seriously, I've been wanting to see Bale in a comedy for so long now. I just KNOW he has it in him!

Also, I'd really like to see a good biopic of The Beatles. I'm surprised there hasn't been one.

 

[TruerToTheCore]

Stalin
Lenin
Theodore Roosevelt
Bismarck
Frederik II.
Charlemange
El Cid (new)
Arminius (that's Gladiator-like epic)
