Looks like Steven Spielberg will be making a movie about a Fighter Pilot named Black Hawk

Wonder if real planes or CGI will be used?

I'd love to see them build a full size XF5F! Then an XF-90 for the sequel! geek

:roll: UGH! Another super hero movie from Hollywood?!

He's a talented director/producer. Imagine what he could do with "A Higher Call"? What about his script for a movie about the fledgling Israeli Air Force? That was supposed to be made after Lincoln.

The last movie of his I saw was 'Bridge of Spies'. Great movie! I loved the fact that they included the background and flight scenes of Gary Powers, by heading out to Beale AFB and using an actual U-2.

HEY! Don't knock superhero movies. I think they're great and are finally getting their spot in the sunlight after some wonky examples over the years. I wouldn't worry too much about them. Eventually the public will get bored and be onto another kick. That being said, we do get some military related superhero movies (i.e. Wonder Woman, Captain America, Wolverine Origins beginning, etc.) This Blackhawk movie could be really interesting AND hopefully turn around DC's appalling track record of barely comprehensible films. *cough*cough* Zach Snyder *cough*cough*

Lots of Buchons flying recently. Might make for a nice flying sequence.
