Swashbuckler 1700 Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Hi what kind of movies (that are related to pirates/age of sail themes) would you like to see I think that world need movie about - Movie or series about Bart Roberst (it could be really epic action/drama) - Realistic movies (is that a miracle) - Movie About loyalist privateers during USA Rew war. (new point if view for a change) - Movie about Sam Bellamy (again it could be epic and tragic movie) "I have not yet Begun To Fight!"John Paul Jones
Swashbuckler 1700 Posted May 19, 2012 Author Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) I meant Royalist privateers... Edited May 19, 2012 by Swashbuckler 1700 "I have not yet Begun To Fight!"John Paul Jones
Tartan Jack Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 In the American Revolution AKA "AmRev" (or American War" for British POV), the terms in the Colonies were: Patriots (what called themselves), Rebels (what the Redcoats and those supporting the Crown/Parliament), or Whigs for those who supported American Independence and Loyalists or Tories for those that remained loyal to the Crown. The terms "Whigs" and "Tories" then quickly vanished from the American political vocabulary and other terms appeared, while those 2 remain in British politics for MUCH longer after the war. Side note: Many (all?) of the Redcoat/British units who fought in the war have refused to utilize battle honours from the American War in their appropriate places, such as tags/banners hanging from their unit flags that show the wars fought. The ones where I read the reason said that "it wasn't an war against an enemy, but ourselves" and therefore not really something they were proud of having fought or the like. -John "Tartan Jack" Wages, of South Carolina
seabaroness Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 It must be about four years ago I read that someone was doing a movie on Grace O'Malley, but as far as I can tell it was never produced. I would love to see a decent biopic on her life. Hopefully any film produced will be far better than the Broadway play a few years back.
Jib Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 I always hear rumors about the supposed "Anne Bonny and Mary Read" movie that is supposed to be made. If only that would happen.

Foxe"With this Fore-Staff he fansies he does Wonders, when, God knows, it amounts to no more but only to solve that simple Question, Where are we? Which every chi'd in London can tell you." - Ned Ward The Wooden World Dissected, 1707ETFox.co.uk
Tartan Jack Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Right, Foxe, He would make an amazing movie better than a screen writer could make up . . . and ALL TRUE! -John "Tartan Jack" Wages, of South Carolina
