Ooops. I mean "film a Hicks biopic." With Russell Crowe.
I realize there are more pressing issues in the world, but this news made me livid. Even if you feel Hicks is overrated, surly you can see that only a shitty movie can result from this plan. That Ron Howard would even consider this project demonstrates his failure to grasp Hick's material, Hick's dareIsay "message."
Only one question seems pertinent: Would Hicks himself approve? OBVIOUSLY not. But he'd probably get a funny bit out of it.

Get up. Get involved. Our boys didn't die on the beaches of Normandy for this shit.
