Hell Freezes Over... Giant Hole In Universe Found... Forward Progression on Lucas' forever in development film RED TAILS?!?!?!
Hey folks, Harry here... I know the headline looks like three totally improbable things... but ya know... one of them is true! That's right, forward progression has begun on Lucas' RED TAILS project. For - actually, I don't have a clue how long he's been talking about making a film about the Tuskegee Airmen. I know it began sometime in the same century as the actual event.
I actually seem to have a memory of this project around the same time as HOWARD THE DUCK. Now that's not to cast a HOWARD THE DUCK cloud on this project. Quite the contrary. I've always been excited about HOWARD THE DUCK and the Tuskegee Airmen. I'm hoping he casts folks like Laurence Fishburne or Andre Braugher or Cuba Gooding Jr.
Kidding aside - I love World War II aviation flicks. This is a great story, that even though it was told wonderfully on TV, the story could be amazing with the tools Lucas has at his disposal. I had assumed this was dead a long time ago. And what was the forward progression? He hired John Ridley to write the script. I wonder - all these years that it's been "in development" was there never a script? Hmmm...
So how great is John Ridley? Well... no joking... he's pretty fucking good. He wrote U-TURN, THREE KINGS, and my favorite... UNDERCOVER BROTHER - which is a work of genius that was underappreciated by a world filled with blind heathens.
But now that Lucas has hired a writer, something he usually does in secret and rarely acknowledges to the public - I think there's a chance this will actually get made. And it'll be an interesting combatting Visual Fx battle between Weta and ILM. Because Peter Jackson has his DAMBUSTERS in the pipeline - I wonder which will hit first.

Plse. don't direct

hm...

If this film is half as good as The Phantom Menace, then it will be absolutely shite. "Wesah need some training to fly thesah big birds"
-
Dude, never much of a "hater," as the kids say--but that article was all over the place. What the hell was that rambling bit about Howard the Duck? It was like Miss. South Carolina all over again.
-
And they shot well.
-
Even though he's already done this film over 10 years ago!!
www.imdb.com/title/tt0114745/
and, wait - who else was in that?
I know, Cuba Gooding Jr!!
Someone wanna tell the beard he's been beaten to the punch by around 12 years?
-
I see you were confused by the article as well. Harry was being facetious-- he was referring to that movie. Lucas hasn't actually cast those actors.

Well Harry, I have 1st hand knowledge of this project
by r.c. the "wise"
My Grandfather, Roger "Bill" Terry (Google him, he's an incredible man and my hero) use to be president of the Tuskegee Airmen Institute. In fact, under his presidency (in an attempt spark interest for a new generation to understand and respect the efforts, sacrifice and honor of these fine soilders)they were able to get two G.I.Joe commemerative action figures made as well as the HBO TV Film made. Lucas has own the exclusive rights of the Airmen's RED TAILS for 20 years. As far as scripts, well, all I know is that there was ONE script originally written. Personally, this project has been one of great irritance and excitement. A bizarre pairing of emotions I know but bare with me. Consider that when Lucas intitially intended to have this film made to coincide with the 50th Anniversery of the end of WWII. Since then, numerous ILM/THX/video game projects have consumed his "attention"...included six related Star Wars films. It's been frustrating because many of the original Airmen have passed away, never to see this project come to fruition. The excitement is the hope that one day, ONE F'N DAY, he'll come through and make an amazing film that highlights/showcases/honors/respects the great contributions made. Hell freezing over...nope not yet. But I hear that it will start getting colder in LA soon :^D
-
Really, gay.
-
"Faster...more intense."
-
I never thought he would actually get out from under Star Wars and make another film like he said he wanted to, but he's doin' it! He's really doin' it!
-
The HBO film did it with flying colors, and with The actual T's involvement.
Why go back on that horse once again. Lucas had it, let it sit too long, and someone else did it and did it well.
Lucas needs to move on to those THX1138 like movies he promised US. Oh wait thats right he's all about TV now..
Who cares!!!
Redtails won't be his Shindies List nor his Saving Private Ryan.
15 years too late Mr. L!
Now hows about a Fantasia like CGI digital film in 3d sans Jar Jar. -

Wait, I thought they DID find a hole in the universe...

I recall reading about this project in 1990. I was still in high school and on the way to an interview for a part time job! I was so excited, as an African American, that a guy with the clou of Lucas would do such a film. For two yars I recall egularly checking ou Variety at the library to see if "Red Tails" was going into production. After that I stoped checking. And after four years I essentially brushed off the idea that this movie was going to be done at all. To read today's report is kind of like learning that a lost and thought to be dead friend has turned up alive in Aruba. Of course now I'm not so excited about this product considering Lucas' recent track record. But I hope it finally goes through and that a good movie is actually made. By the way I ddi get that job.
-
Or IS it???
-
He said in an interview that he would produce and get somebody in to direct...this isn't one of his much-vaunted 'personal' films he's going to make. Cool to see Lucasfilm make something that isn't full of furry animals for a change though.
-
if it's a porno, i'll go and see it.
-
That animated Conan movie?
-
Well?
-
All people will do is complain about how it's not as good as the original. At least Red Tails has a chance to tell a new story.

But more people will be able to learn of the Tuskegee story from a high-budget Lucas-produced movie than a pre-Sopranos-era-HBO Film, no matter how good that HBO Film was. Hell, even if they recycled the cast, it would be a worthwhile effort. By the way, Tuskegee Airmen was one of the finest HBO Films ever, along with Something The Lord Made, Miss Evers' Boys, Citizen X, Barbarians At the Gate...and about 20 other films, of course, that's not even counting minis.
-
Man, that bit where Doogie had an adverse reaction to being called a sissy, and proceeded to rip that guy to pieces with his bare hands is one of the greatest moments of American Film."I am not a SISSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIE!"
-
No workie. I wanted to read about the hole.
-
...I was a kid. But then, the years came and I realised that most people hated it. I gotta see that shit again.
-
The other day I was trying to remember the last movie I've seen that really (no...really) made me laugh. I remember now, it was Undercover Brother.
-
Even though he won a Oscar in 1997, I still think he's got to be one of the worst actors in Hollywood or maybe he chooses the wrong projects.
-
it is not as bad as people say....its fucking awesome
-
Because George Lucas is by no means one of those anymore.

Sorry, Howard, but you're a white duck - get back to doing tricks for alcohol.
-
Come on ole boy! Direct!
-
They were already in the last one, which was made for tV, as I remember. This movie should be an ensemble piece, not a star-vehicle. I think with proper marketing and great word of mouth it won't need a "marquee" actor to headline it in order for audiences to come and see it. We need some young lions for these roles. If I were in charge of casting I'd draft half the cast of Stomp the Yard, beginning with the guy who led the Gamma fraternity to play any sort of "lead."
-
Harry was joking - Cuba Gooding Jr. was also in it (before he became famous in Daddy Day Camp). :)
-
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap070827.html
-
He actually did a press conference announcing this project in the 80s, and he has sat on it ever since.
-
More often than not. I would rather he not get cast in anything Lucas does because George is one director that can't even get a decent performance out of a good/great actor.
-
Pink Floyd lineup 2 reunited a few years ago and at that point the term should have been completely retired.
-
Not only that but Fishburne and Cuba were in Boyz in da Hood,that would be stupid with them two in in this. And yes Fishburne already did a movie about this, and he's a fatty now, so good luck getting him to milatary weight when he didn;t even tredmill for anything after the first Matrix. Also I do believe there is a wide assortment of blakc actors beyond the headliners. And Redman and Method man don;t count.
-
They should remake these movies. All excellent Cheese. They all give the Japs hell!
-
Star Wars is a pulp saga, not The Bible. Stop being more popist than The Pope and give the man a break. Without his work, you probably wouldn´t be interested in movies.
-
... "I'm tired of all these motherf***in' Nazis in this motherf***in' airspace!!!"

There was tv film already made called the Tuskagee Airmen. A quick glance at imdb.com and look who starred in the tv movie called tuskagee airmen. Note the lead actor.....
Laurence Fishburne ... Hannibal Lee
Allen Payne ... Walter Peoples
Malcolm-Jamal Warner ... Leroy Cappy
Courtney B. Vance ... Lt. Glenn (as Courtney Vance)
Andre Braugher ... Benjamin O. Davis
Christopher McDonald ... Maj. Joy (as Chris McDonald)
Daniel Hugh Kelly ... Col. Rogers
John Lithgow ... Sen. Conyers
Cuba Gooding Jr. ... Billy Roberts
Mekhi Phifer ... Lewis Johns
Christopher Bevins ... Young Hannibal
Eddie Braun ... Tail gunner
Max Daniels ... Left waist gunner
Jack Dwyer ... Operations officer
James Field ... Conductor
So why Larry Fishbourne would want to do this all over again, I have no idea.
-
But Lea Thompson was hot enough to melt him.
-
yeah there are plenty of excellent up-and-coming and established black actors working today who could make this project emotional and thrilling. however, that would be a moot point if lucas directed it. he wouldn't, right?

emeraldboy-this shows what happens when you're an idiot
by catothecensor
If you will reread the post you'll clearly see that Harry was kidding! See that "kidding aside" after the Fisbhurn/Gooding Jr. line? Jesus Christ, learn to fucking read.
-
...in order to make the point that Cato just made. Posts something anyway just so the effort wasn't entirely wasted.
-
I can't stop laughing at the idea of Howard the Duck somewhere turning tricks for alcohol.
-
Koch released it. Apparently no extras, and it may be the censored version, so I didn't bother - there is the HDTV-to-DVDR version all over the net, and besides, I'll wait for a Special Edition :)
-
There really was a giant hole found in the universe a few days ago. It was the biggest hole they'd ever seen.

As far as hell freezing over, that would result in Star Wars: Episode VII, which I still believe will happen. There is no way in hell, heck, or wherever your devil might live that George Lucas would ever go so far as to not bring back Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker one more time. Even HE wants to see Hamill as Luke again!
-
The guy who wrote Three Kings also wrote Undercover Brother? Both are reasonable films to be sure, but... boy, would never have guessed that.
-
So finding the hole in the center is not surprising.
-
ILM's visuals, in my opinion, hold up better than WETA's. Also, ILM knocked Transformer's out of the park.
-
It's feeling left out.
-
Too Soon!
-
The Rebel Alliance were biased in their recruitment practices. I am sure that Admiral Ackbar commissioned studies proving Africans did not have the requisite skills to pilot an X-Wing. However, Lando did do alright in the Falcon? I am particularly upset because Red Squadron saw no problem with putting a 60 year old to lead them..... and I will not go into detail about the ultra fit Porkins.... Yet the brothers get no love?! This is all the more saddening considering the the Imperial pilots wore black and, I have heard, were equal opportunity... :)
-
and they named it Anchorite.
-
It was a lot better than whichever Austin Powers movie came out the same summer. The film might have been better with a non-comedian in the lead role, but it's very funny with some great satire.
-
And let's also hope he doesn't retcon a CGI Jabba "appearance" somewhere in the film (because we all know Jabba would be in the dark corner of some German or Vichy cabaret.)
-
dee-fuckin-licious. Great, I just got powedered sugar on my keyboard.
-
I’ve also been waiting for this movie for a while. I was kinda disappointed in the HBO production (although it had its moments). I disagree with the TB’er who suggested an ensemble story. They rarely work well, IMO. They should focus on making a ripping good yarn; that in itself will be much better tribute to the Tuskegee Airmen than a clumsy “look at all the heroes” type paean. And they should park a dump truck full of money in front of Terrence Howard’s house until he agrees to star in this. He’s got the perfect look. (Maybe he could play Robert Freeman, Huey & Riley’s granddad. He was a real guy, right? :-) On a somewhat related note, when are they going to make a Night Witches movie? (They were the Russian women who kicked aerial ass on the Eastern Front.) Scarlett Johanssen was born to play Lily Litvak, the beautiful fighter ace known as “The White Rose of Stalingrad.” Her story was tailor-made for the Hollywood treatment.
-
He would kick Maverick's and Iceman's ass anyday.
-
Porkins could kick his ass...
-
It is vogue to criticize GL as a talentless hack. But the most idiotic thing is the veneration for the Original Trilogy while simultaneously bashing the new one for things like wooden dialogue etc.. Go watch the performances of Hamill and Ford and then tell me that it is superior to Portman or Christensen. But certain people want to give credit to all that is good in SW to the ESB director, GL's ex-wife, producers, anyone save GL.
-
Compare the Han/Leia romance to the Anakin/Padme "romance," and tell me they are of the same quality. ("I'm nice men." vs. "It's because I'm so in love with YOU.") Yeah, GL takes some undeserved knocks, but this ain't one of them.
-
Only problem is that if they do make this they will do fleets of CGI battles, with planes exploding like small nuclear bombs.
-
I agree with Harry. Undercover Brother is almost as criminally underappreciated as Pootie Tang.
Count me interested in this... though, given Lucas' recent history, I have my reservations. He's no Spielberg. -
... oh, so that's why he seques from every frickin' scene to every other frickin' scene with an embarassing 1970's-era wipe that anyone on earth can pull off with a Chinese-made, no-name brand video camera from Wal-Mart. Such genius!
-
... read the article again. It's just an area of space-time distortion around a garden variety neutron star, probably not enough distortion to send you back in time or into the mirror-verse, but it'll rip your body down into a cloud of super-heated atoms just fine!
-
Wasn't Marcia the editor for Lucas' films?
-
...besides working on 1-3, he was waiting until enough time had passed since the HBO flick was made.
-
... I'm not gonna argue, here. I'm just saying the wipes could be passed off as a "stylistic homage" in the 70's... but there was no excuse for them in 1999, 2002, etc. (Whenever those prequels came out... I've already blocked the horror out of my memory-not-of-murder) I do agree that Bay is a hack, even an uber-hack, so I don't get your whole "if you don't agree that Lucas is a cinematic god... you must like Michael Bay" argument. And dude... just because you can't spell, doesn't mean you're right, either!

lucas sucks, Bay sucks harder. At least Lucas has some verifiable classics as opposed to the marketed classics Bay pumps out.
-
That guy from the
show "Girlfriends" = dream caste. -
The Phantom Edit, Attack of the Phantom, etc. They actually make the movies watchable. I highly recommend 'em to anyone who has been holding out any hope for the star wars series.
-
Put Chappy St.Clair in that Stealth plane and he would have rescued Doug Masters Dad and beat the Russians no problem.
-
....First it was the Matrix that was the new it thing.... Then it was LOTR ... GL creation. all 6 movies are still watchable and fun as lighthearted entertainment. This is no Shakespeare, this is fun sci-fi. The sooner that fans abandon the notion that SW is high drama and art the better. SW does not need to be high concept to be a success.

...a hole in the universe.

-
Lucas direct another flick. It's definitely the hip thing to bash the flanneled one, but the guy has talent behind the camera. That's right, I said it. Watch THX 1138 or American Graffiti. Two great flicks that are totally different from his Star Wars movies. MoM is definitely on the ball when he talks about Lucas and Star Wars, and though I'm not certain about what he says concerning Raiders (I haven't done any research or anything to tell me it was overwhelmingly Lucas's film), I wouldn't be surprised if Lucas had a much bigger hand in Raiders than most think. I'd really like to see him make the smaller films he said he was interested in going back to, and here's hoping he gets back in the director's chair for Red Tails and more flicks afterward.
-
Now that would be an interesting project.
-
This project was originally setup in the early '90's with Lucas exec. producing and Thomas Carter directing.
They had a screenplay at the time and had interviewed most of the red tail squadron.
Lucas was never going to direct.
All this info comes from an issue of Lucasfilm magazine released in 1990. -
They were given 150$

lucas owes the comic world a reboot of Howard the Duck
by lettersoftransit
That movie killed the comic, which was far far & away better than people would think from the film. It was a good idea to do Howard as a movie. it just happened too soon (before decent CGI) and without a decent script (genius though Lucas may be, comic genius he is not)
-
are from Kurosawa. Absolutely on purpose. Go watch 7 Samurai, or more to the point, Hidden Fortress (and if you don't know why I suggested that one there's no hope for you). Ignorant plebs.
Shuttlepod, they DID do a reunion, at one of the recent 'anniversary' releases of the DVD.
As for wooden acting in the O.T., Carrie FIsher WAS faceless half the time in Empire so that probably doesn't help. I think she'd kicked the junk pretty much by Jedi, but she still LOOKS like a heroin/speedball freak in that bikini. Not a taped-down curve to be seen.
No, the whole problem for Lucas with Empire was that Kirshner told him at the outset he WASN'T going to be Lucas' sycophant (like Jedi) and DID do his own thing when it came down to arguments. More than likely why Lucas says it's his least favourite. And definitely why we have "I love you" "I know".
As for editing, Lucas may be an editor (look how he treats structure and plot elements), but Burtt is NOT. Sound genius absolutely, but fucking lousy editor with no sense of rhythm. Based on the NT anyway. Grrr.
Also MOM, you're smoking something if you think Spielberg was a glorified director for hire on Raiders. And YOU talk about dogmatic disciples!! -
Count me out.
-
George Lucas blows sloppy green chunks. He's a self-important mental midget who's fooled his apologist fans into thinking he's got something important to say.
The problem is, he doesn't.
I loved "Three Kings," so I've got no problem with John Ridley writing the Tuskegee Airmen story. I just think George Lucas is absolutely the wrong person to direct it. Any movie that requires drama, real emotion, real human beings, subtlety, or a strident historic statement should be slapped out Lucas's fat hands. The man has no clue.
People who dig Lucas are ostriches willing to stick their heads in the sand and overlook his childishly bad writing and execution. Which is fine, I suppose. America needs its modern braindead mythologies to give their lives meaning, which I know Lucas has taken advantage of. But he's also a pigheaded opportunist who's buttraped the Star Wars-going public with his faux-Joseph Campbell preachings, cheaply made toys, and badly made movies.
If Lucas directs, I'm entirely uninterested in "The Tuskegee Airmen." -
Every time someone offers up Lucas as film genius, film visionary, as a film auteur..my gall bladder hurts.
Thx1138, love fights the state, yeah, send that check to Eric Blair.
American Graffiti, sure, sudden Lucasian ability or the skills of Katz, Kurtz, and Coppola? yeah, send that check to Francis.
Star Wars..well, something about a blind squirrel and the occasional acorn. Right time, right place, cheap RAM, the Dykstraflex and it's visionary creator and AGAIN the guiding hand of Gary Kurtz...also, Send that story check to Frank Herbert's estate
Which brings us to Empire, Irv Kershner was Lucas' hired hand..riiight. Any director that could pull an inspired, believable performance out of Chuck Bronson as Dan Shomron (and Yaphet Kotto's Idi Amin was an order of magnitude better than Forrest Whittaker's)..Is NO man's tool. The reason many see Empire as the best of the SW films is due to the efforts and abilities of Kershner and Kurtz (coincidentally, the last time he worked with Lucas) not the stupefying hacketry of George.
Raiders..Lucas more than Spielberg? That is just universally stupid. Send that check to Steve, so he can use it to polish his solid gold toilets
Lucas understands the movie business, especially all things marketing. He is a superior capitalist, there is no denying that. But like about, mmm, 85% of other superior capitalists what he is best at is harnessing and marshaling the skills and talents of others to serve his whims. A good artist copies, a great artist steals. Of course he will router this new/old Red Tail endeavour, too.
Ahhh, whada I know, I just loath the guy cause he attended the University of Spoiled Children..
Suck it, Trojans! Vince Young said so. -
What in God's name is wrong with McGregor? With a resume that includes shit like THE ISLAND, DOWN WITH LOVE, EYE OF THE BEHOLDER, A LIFE LESS ORDINARY, and NIGHTWATCH, his biggest regret is...playing Obi-Wan Kenobi!!! WTF? Even the most embittered AICN talkbacker (and they are legion) would prefer a stint with Uncle George than one with Michael "The Antichrist" Bay.
Ewan McGregor: You've got 48 hours to retract this. -
Funny that Portman and McGregor seem to believe they're above this, yet their older, far more accomplished colleagues were honored to be a part of the mythos. And what a mythos it is, crafted by one of cinema's preeminent storytellers.
-
Whether it is Dysktra, Kurtz, GL's ex, and even Burt, the haters want to bestow honours on everyone save GL! Pathetic.
-
How about he does some good casting for once and brings Malcolm-Jamal fucking Warner back. And also John Lithgow.
-
Show me the war bonds!
-
someone tinyurl it for me, please. thanks.
-
Forget Malcolm Jamal Warner!
-
The actually watchable, you should see if you can download a torrent of the Phantom Edit, Attack of the Phantom, and the ADIGITALMAN edits are all superior.
-
It would be great if the 3-D re-release of the series took from the fan re-edits. Seriously makes a difference.
-
Their is still good in them. Do a google search for adigitalman torrents or Phantom Edit torrents. It will be well worth your while.
-
It's as important to see as the Star Wars Holiday Special.
-
you know it to be true...think you can do better?..bollocks
-
Go on and watch it again....
-
Except for Anakin's babblings in the cockpit, I'm perfectly content with Episode I. For all the grousing about "bad acting", Neeson, August, and McDiarmid gave three of the most textured performances in the saga. I dug the politics. I loved passage on Tatooine and Coruscant. The dialogue was no worse than anything you'd hear in the OT. All in all, I'd rank it #4--far better than ROTJ and AOTC.
-
You wrote "Lucas is and was a great director... you know it to be true."
What you're really trying to say is, "I think Lucas is and was a great director... I know it to be true." Which is fine. You're welcome to your opinion. But don't ever think you speak for me. Not even remotely. I invite you to step down from your soapbox and re-express your opinion from your own perspective. Give us a reason why Lucas is and was a great director and maybe I'll take you seriously. But until then... -
hardly any binks, iT is wonderful.

I think your rationalization for Ewan McGregor not liking his role in Star Wars is a bit desperate. Whether or not he was an alcoholic during the filming of the Star Wars films is irrelevant. I'm sure lots of actors look back on certain roles they've played with disdain or embarrassment. Robert Downey Jr. and many others were high as kites most of the time, but their performances continue to resonate for them and others. You need to accept the fact Ewan McGregor just doesn't like his role in Star Wars. No excuses, no rationalizations, he just doesn't.
And contrary to your opinion, I think as time goes on Ewan will look less fondly on his Star Wars years. Natalie Portman admitted she doesn't like her role in Star Wars either. Coincidence? I think not. -

Logically speaking, the acting sucked 'cause the direct
by kirttawesomio
ing sucked. Have you seen Lucas describing a scene to his crew on set. Ridiculous.
-
... and another thing... my opinion is not flawed. It's my opinion and I can back it up with hundred of personal reasons why I believe Lucas is a hack. He made lots of money, I give him that. So did Michael Bay. So did Stephen Sommers. And so did a lot of directors I happen to like. Please don't presume.
Thanks. -
I speck! If me be returnin, the Bosses will do terrible things to me! Tewwwwible things! Yeah. Hmmm... yousa point is well seen.

Jar Jar Binks is right at home in a franchise that showcased an effete robot, a 7 foot tall dog--who barked a bit too much for my taste--and a planet of teddy bears. Bottom line: he makes kids laugh. If that bothers you, go watch a Matrix flick (just don't play it in my house).
-
For misspelling shit? Now go back and fix all those other posts, some of which are almost incomprehensible. Get a handle on the small words before impressing us with the big ones, dude. No offence, but for someone that posts so much I can't work out what on Earth you're saying half the time.
If English isn't your first language though I apologise. Or apologize, if you're in America. ;) -
Don't diss my hero...you want proof of how great a director he is? watch his student films...herbie...thx1138....look at life.
student films so good they won awards and made spielburg green with envy
then watch his movies...all the proof is there...the skill..the talent to just put a camera in one place and let the action unfold as if you were really there watching it...THX1138 is a movie 30 years ahead of it's time, often copied now (the island anyone?..no didn't think so) -
Gonna do a movie about pilots who entered near the end of the war who shot down half trained inexperienced Nazi goose stepping pilots. Talk about overated. Why not do a movie on the Flying Tigers instead. Now there were some real ACES.
