something you'd like to see turned into a movie or tv series

Any books, cartoons, old TV shows, stories or anything you'd like to see turned into a movie or TV series?

 

I think for me it's the old "Six Million Dollar Man". I think a movie could be fairly well done. Of course that was the early '80s so he'd probably be more like 600 million...

 

And as immensely popular as "The Greatest American Hero" was, I can't imagine it hasn't been broached as a reborn series or movie.

 

I'd love to see something along the lines of "The White Shadow" redone as a TV series. Most TV teacher type shows are absolutely horrible, but if done right I think this could work.

 

Hollywood regurgitates everything anyway so these would be fun to see attempted. And if they sucked (and they probably would), it'd give us all something to complain about.

I remember reading that there was a "Six Billion Dollar Man" movie in the works, but if I remember correctly it was going to be a crappy spoof starring Ben Stiller (like the garbage job they did with Starsky and Hutch).

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
