'Baahubali' is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
'The Stand' was great. Adapted by Stephen King from his massive book.
'Lord of the Rings' was about saving the world, big time, big duties.
What I'm doing is making an action-adventure film of mythic proportions.
I've read 'Valley of the Dolls' at least four times. It's so epic!
'Gone With The Wind' is one of the all-time greats. Read Margaret Mitchell's book and watch the film again; it's a soap opera in all its glory. It is superb and memorable.
When I was little, I saw the play 'Les Miserables' on Broadway, I thought it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen.
For me, there's nothing better than getting immersed in a sprawling, epic, multi-generational family saga, and 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' by Gabriel Garcia Marquez is the most sprawling, epic, and multi-generational of them all.
I love 'Troy.' I love Brad Pitt's character - when he went to Troy, he just ran over it. Then this particular scene where they made this big old horse or something out of wood, and they hid inside the wood.
Are you not tempted to create a story for which men and women would live and die, for which they would be capable of killing and allowing them to be killed, of sacrificing and condemning themselves, of handling over their souls?
Babylon 5 is probably the biggest, most ambitious television science fiction series ever made. It's one big novel told over five years with 110 different stories told within it.
If you love epic space opera, you shouldn't miss 'Interstellar'.
'Game of Thrones' is the broadest of narratives. I don't know if anyone in the U.S. has done a story on such a large scale before, both in terms of what George R.R. Martin wrote and what's on the show.
'Dynasty' is such an appealing title in and of itself, not even knowing about the original series. It's a word that evokes power and legacy and a certain level of epic-ness.
Your life is meant to be an epic story. How you think, perform and live today is part of that script.
But I'm not a small-literary-novel kind of guy, and once I'd developed the world in the first couple of hundred pages, I felt that there was potential here to go on and write an engaging story set in that world. So that's what I did. This probably ruins things both for the people who want small literary novels and for those who want action-packed epics, but anyway, it's what I wrote.
'Warcraft' by its very nature is epic in scale.
If I thought there was any hope of turning 'World War Z' into a movie, I wouldn't have written it as a giant, epic, global story, because that requires a giant, epic, global budget.
Maybe in this Star Wars world maybe subconsciously I was preparing myself. But I've just found all of my ideas I've been coming up with are big sci-fi things, and I wanted to do a big epic, a big space opera, and this is it. This is mine.
'The Dark Knight Rises,' it turns out, is a classic Batman epic.
Become major, Paul. Live like a hero. That's what the classics teach us. Be a main character. Otherwise what is life for?
At the same time, it's a family story and more of an epic. I needed the third-person. I tried to give a sense that Cal, in writing his story, is perhaps inventing his past as much as recalling it.
The natural milieu I inhabit is more in epic storytelling.
THE TESTAMENT OF TALL EAGLE is myth-making of epic scope.
Whether you're a history buff or a fantasy fan, Druon's epic will keep you turning pages. This was the original game of thrones. If you like 'A Song of Ice and Fire', you will love 'The Accursed Kings'.
