Film Making Technology and Twilight: 2000
Advances in computer animation have me thinking that a Twilight: 2000 movie based on Escape from Kalisz would be more practicable than ever. Mid-scale battles involving multiple AFV wouldn’t require live models of any of the vehicles involved, except perhaps as models for the animators. For that matter, the climactic battle of Ruins of Warsaw would be manageable to a degree unheard of twenty or even ten years ago. I wonder if producers could be convinced of a market…

I think realistically the best we could hope for is a maybe a history channel miniseries on a potential conflict between Pact and Nato Forces.
Though given this was done with a 300 dollar budget who really knows.

Wow! I was just trying to post that Kato. Went I hit "submit" it gave me a broken link messaged. When I refreshed, you'd already posted it. Weird. Great minds think alike, I guess.

What was that music used in other than that? I recognize it but can't put a name to it.

That would explain why I was envisioning zombies in my head during that piece. It's been used recently in something as well, I believe. Or maybe just in a trailer or something.

This makes me think of who might play the characters from the modules in a T2K movie…I can’t remember all of them off the top of my head, but a few suggestions for some of them…
Monk – Matt Damon / Ben Affleck / Leonardo Di Caprio Jones –Christian Bale (on the basis that he’s Welsh!) Wood – Daniel Radcliffe / Tobey Maguire Bobbi Lee – Jessica Biel / Megan Fox (I think Jessica Biel would be the more credible option, but who knows…) Sgt Anderson - Morgan Freeman / Tom Hanks The Major – Denzel Washington A few others from the modules… King Julian of Silesia – John Malkovich Julian’s brother (whose name I can’t remember) – Gary Oldman Molly Warren – Jennifer Garner Guz Stanislaw – I’m tempted to say Danny De Vito… The Polish American guy that owns the bar in Krakow – Clint Eastwood There are probably dozens of other possibilities…Anyone got any thoughts?

For Molly Warren, I'd say a young Nicole Kidman. I keep seeing Brandon Fraser as Monk... For the part of Josef Kutrzeba, Liam Neelson General Diwizji Zygmunt Bohusz-Szyszko....Sir Anthony Hopkins Henryk Rapacki....Charlie Sheen Colonel Richard Stark...Chris O'Donnell Tanya...Cote de Pablo Sergeant Randolph Cutler...Brad Pitt...come on, you know you want the chance to blow him away with an RPG!!!! LOL

You've got some good ones there Dragoon...I forgot about Cutler.

Yup Fraser was in the Mummy films...
And for the part of Juliusz Wojociechowicz...how about John Hannah, the brother from the Mummy films...just about be perfect for an absent-minded ordnance expert? For the part of Major Anatoli Malekov....how about Arnold Vosloo? Still don't know about Marian Dmowski...Megan Fox is too "lively" an actress for the role....hmmmm somebody who can pull off being blond, quiet, nervous and pretty....maybe Maryam d'Abo? For the Black Baron, I'm divided...John Rhys-Davies or Jeroen Krabbe perhaps. Krabbe played General Koskov in the Living Daylights, he's a decent actor.

How about Jeroen Krabbe as the CO of 10th GTD?
James Morrison (Col McQueen from Space: Above and Beyond) as Colonel Stark. Katee Sackhoff as Capt. Molly Warren.

Maryam D'Abo at the age she was when she did the Living Daylights would work well...if you were making the film now I think you'd need to CGI her to make her younger (apparently this is being done to Jeff Bridges in the new Tron film). Otherwise, how about Julia Stiles? Father Niekarz - Sir Sean Connery? The Spetznaz detachment from Black Madonna... The Major (Volkov?) - how about Sean Bean? Or Viggo Mortensen? The young officer (Papa Gulashev?) - Anton Yelchin Not sure about the Captain (Fedorenko?). Someone like Jean Claude van Damme seems a bit cheesy...how about Leiv Schreiber?
