Captain Blood

[Taffy Saltwater]

w/Erroll Flynn on TCM right now - gotta fly!

[Malcolm]

Always have to watch that one.

[Noble Dreg]

Rats, would have liked to have seen it again.  Right up there with the "Sea Hawks", two movies deserving of a modern re-make in my opinion!

Which leads to this question: Who is a worthy successor to Errol?

[Welsh Wench]

Me.

Who says Captain Blood has to be a man? 

OK OK, if I had to choose....Hugh Jackman?

[Seamus Ex Machina]

Bruce Willis woulda been great a few years ago.....

Red sez ditto for Harrison Ford.  Brad Pit........? 

And I'll throw in Kurt Russel for my own reasons....

[Gauwyn of Bracknell]

I think I heard that Russell Crowe was doing a remake of Robin Hood??

[Lady Amy of York]

It must be  the  weekend  for  movies  about ships, and  ship captains  and  pirates.
Last night they had " Mutiny  on the  Bounty "  with Clark Gable.
     "  Mister  Christen !! "

Hugh Jackman would have the intelligence, sly sense of humor & physique to make a fine Captain Blood.

[SirRichardBear]

I don't know ever modern remake I've seen in the last ten years have been very disappointing.   It seems the people making them miss what was important in making the orginal so powerful.

[Capt Gabriela Fullpepper]

What about Viggo... a TRUE Renaissance man OH or Sean Bean... yeah Sean Bean

[Welsh Wench]

Hugh Jackman, hands down!



Now picture him in pirate garb....Need I say more?

[Lady Amy of York]

I like  your  thinking  Welsh Wench.  Don't mind  me  ,I'm just  going  to set here  and  stare at  the  picture !

[Gauwyn of Bracknell]

Maybe I should find a Hugh Jackman mask to wear with my garb?? 

[Taffy Saltwater]

Maybe you could just get Hugh to wear your garb.  On the other hand, garbless - dibs!!!!!
