I'm really looking forward to this bio-pic about Bobby Fisher which focuses on his monumental match with Boris Spassky in Iceland.

Me too...good cast, and a natural of a story for the big screen. Should be great.

It is the "Miracle" of the chess world. Should be good.

Wait . . . Bobby Fisher was Spiderman?
(Come to think of it, I never did see a picture of the two of them together.) |

I think an even more interesting biopic would be about his life afterwards...

I read a short article somewhere that said it really focuses more on his mental state than his chess. Should be a great movie though.

For me it's always been the Kings Gambut.
But whilst I evolve to the middle game, I always loose ... sigh |

I always thought the the book, "Bobby Fischer vs. the Rest of the World" by Brad Darrach, which centers on events leading up to and including the '72 match, would have made a GREAT movie. If you haven't read it - READ IT!
