10 movies that should be made in 2018

by ·

It is that time of year again — the new year fast approaches. Instead of the typical “best of” end-of-year list, I am offering this year a list of the movies (or television shows — I am not picky) that I would like to see Hollywood tackle in the coming year. There are still so many stories that need telling out there, and books that could benefit from the big screen treatment. With that in mind, here goes!

John Walker Lindh, “American Taliban”

Shortly after September 11th, 2001, when only a handful of CIA, British, and American Special Forces personnel roamed Afghanistan searching out al-Qaeda leaders, an uprising occurred at a Northern Alliance prison for captured Taliban and foreign fighters in northern Afghanistan. The resulting battle lasted for almost a week in late November/early December 2001, and led to the first CIA fatality in the Global War on Terrorism (of paramilitary officer Johnny “Mike” Spann).

    I was always the tallest as well. In my first High School, I swear I went to a school that had the shortest people in the world. I was taller than most of the senior football players. I was 5’7″. We moved when I was in 9th grade. To my relief, I finally found people taller than me. My best friends were a mix. One was 5’10” and the other was 5’3″.

    That’s sweet.
