Further proof that some movies just should not be remade.

Can’t they come up with some new ideas? Here are some off the top of my head—I give away for FREE to use.
1. The Storm Birds. A WW II movie about German Pilots gathered together—her greatest aces—to fly the Me 262 Jets and defend the Fatherland. Too Little, too late. Most of the pilots were not pro-Nazi. Toss in a love interest—instant hit.
2. The Alabama, The story of the Confederate Raider and her use of tricks to keep one step ahead of the Yankees. Until her last shootout with the USS Kersarg (sp). Film it in the Gulf of Mexico and Europe.
3. Terror on the Yazoo—a story of the CSS Arkansas in the Civil war, her construction and defense of Vicksburg. How she almost snatched victory from defeat.
4. Jenny Lind Tour. About the Swedish singer who captivated America in the 19th Century—and her PR man—PT Barnum. Hookum and history of the greatest pitchman in American History.
5. Carson Naiper of Venus. The Classic Edgar Rice Burroughs adventure on Venus—Jungles, strange men and woman, and high adventure.
6. Raffels, the Gentleman Crook. An anti-hero who robs from English Wealthy to feather his own nest—and do good—with his friend Bundy. A dark sort of Sherlock Holmes. Its been done but could be really funny.
7. Brick Bradford and the Time Top—a time traveler story from 1930s comic pages almost unknown today. Adventures in history. Could use all sorts of sets, locations etc...
