...in the grand tradition of "AI".
Spielberg to transform Stanley Kubrick's long in development NAPOLEON into a Mini-series?!?! Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.-á-á-á-á-á-á - Oscar Wilde - 1870's |

Don't want to jinx it, but this one sounds like it could be a squonker. I read somewhere that Kubrick's "Napoleon" project had a long, pretty bad history. Continuous trouble with the script, and Kubrick's Napoleon came more like a Victorian Englishman than a late 18th century French Corsican. If Kubrick had trouble with a realistic Napoleon, how's all-American Spielberg going to do it? (I'm a Napoleonic history fan, so I'll admit it-- I'm going to be hyper-critical and anal retentive about the details, no matter what). If you help someone when they're in trouble, they will remember you when they're in trouble again.

So he abandoned it for "A Clockwork Orange".

Spielberg is a great filmmaker but he has his own style , just like Kubrick had his own unique style and i do not think they are compatible
but like i said if this project is on the lines of what he has done in the past together with HBO i m looking forward I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire |

Worst Mash-Up Ever would have been the David Lynch directed "Return of the Jedi".

He wanted to do 'his' film.....the producers wanted the next Star Wars. The twain shall never meet, as proven.
makes you wonder what would have happened if Peter jackson had decided to film Dune instead of lords of the rings I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire |

and my personal favorite , undoubtly Barry Lyndon , because every frame in that film looks like a painting
Yes, that film has only started to be appreciated the past decade. I watched it twice on HBO when I was 13, which was weird because I normally did not like slow dramas.
But it's actually a hilarious film in a lot of ways. What a horrible character for a lead !....and Stanley cast Ryan O'Neal, saying later he wanted to cast 'the biggest jerk in Hollywood', and he never let him in on that.

Wow. I forgot about that "The Works" video....found it a few years ago but it got lost as such things do.
This is easily done as I have read about 20 of his biographies.
Probably the oddest thing I found, and it takes a while to watch, is this weird documentary that links most aspects of "The Shining" to his paranoia about the Great Gold Standard Conspiracy.

Why do people care about Napoleon? To me he is only a complex. You know, those short people that act like they are 10 feet tall, only to be smacked down like it's winter in Russia. And ****** gets a bad name because he had the same plan? Guess what, all the people that could take over the world got the **** out of Europe. That is why we now have the United States of America. Everyone else is a poser and a ****** commander. USA USA USA!!! Go back to sleep europe, 'murica will wake you when the chinks come for land. Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise. Seek what they sought. |
