Hollywood doesn't have to redo anything. The problem is, there is a dearth of both originality and creativity, as well as a disregard for what heartland America wants to see.
I would love to see a George Washington trilogy - each movie based on his early years, during the American Revolution, and his Presidency and last days. But Hollywood doesn't have the guts to do it, because they hate middle America.
They did that once with Barry Bostwick. It wasn’t a bad effort but they completely screwed up young Washington’s early adventures in the Ohio Valley. They for no reason introduced the fictional frontier guide Caleb Quinn (played by Lloyd Bridges) for the real frontier guide Christopher Gist. Gist and his sons were important players on the Allegheny frontier and deserve to be remembered! It was unforgivable making that change.
A Washington trilogy.
You know they would have George and TJ exchanging slaves and raping them. That would be the ONLY way they could make it.
Have you been watching TURN?
