Pope Innocent III would be a good figure to learn more about. In his time as Pope, he was the most powerful man in Europe. He organized a couple of Crusades and shut down Kings. He even tried to suppress the Magna Carta through annulment.

Innocent III would make a good HBO series.

The fall of Constantinople would interest me. A big bloody desperate siege where the emperors body is never found.

RFK- Starring Matt Damon preferably

Martin Luther King JR- Denzel Washington maybe

World War II/ Adolf Hitler- Either one would make a fantastic movie

would love to see an "unrated" biopic about Traci Lords, starring J. Lawrence.

But, I would also like to see a Saving Private Ryan or Platoon-type treatment of WWI. The War Horse was good, but not quite what I was looking for.

In all seriousness:

Machiovelli

St. Thomas Moore

The 1848 Italian revolution and unification

Battle of Tours and the Moorish invasion of Central Europe (probably the battle that saved Christianity as we know it)
