A Cocteau origin story would be great

I'd love to see a Cocteau origin story. How his life experiences twisted his mind into believing that forcing "peace" on everyone the way he did was a just and noble cause.

It seemed that he wasn't necessarily power hungry in the traditional megalomaniac sense, but that he just wanted his perfect society, like a flawless pearl.

It wouldn't need to be an action flick or cheese fest like the movie it's based on, but a more character driven drama, perhaps.

No, it wouldn't and no, you wouldn't.

Costeau is a powerhungry IDIOT, very stupid man that has no idea how anything works, can't make intelligent decisions, can't understand consequences of his stupid decisions, and so on.

If you want to see something INTERESTING, just watch all episodes of 'Yes, Minister' and maybe even some episodes of 'Yes, Prime Minister' (mostely a rehash with more filler and not as ingenious ideas or performances, but it has its moments).

If you want to see what's basically an 'intelligent version of Cocteau', you will love 'Yes, Minister' - however, the first episode is a bit slow, so you might want to skip that one.

Watch Ozymandias in Watchmen. It's the same concept basically.

Thanks for the recommendation.

I did allot of backstory fan fiction on this movie. There is a scene cut out when John Spartan fights the CryoCon who did the work for Simon Phoenix in killing Raymond Cocteau when more cryo-prisoners are freed. I think in the cut out scene Sylvester Stallone defeating Jesse Ventura knocks him out. Jesse Ventura played the CryoCon named Adam.

Here's a link with the fan fiction...
