: about anything, budget no issue, what would it be on?
It would be a Reno Race movie, and would be a flying picture inspired by the "Pulp" heroic movies of the 40's and the Spagetti Western. It would be neat to bring an adventure yarn to the screen with a large scope that embodies all of the current Warbird field. Research groups from all over the world scouring old texts, war zones (Iraq), Jungles and junkyards for raw material. Then building racers in desert hangars and cropduster strips as well as high tech facilities against the clock. I would write Travolta and Cruise great roles, Sidney Pollack, and Harrison Ford. Fun on the set, fun on the screen. Easy to make it fun to watch for non flyers, and best of all, with a movie budget, we could build some great racers! Of course I would make sure that Fighters gets the contract to recreate the RB-51...and that she'd stay here when its over.
