The Great FMA Movies?

Anyway, as a Wing Chunner (WT), I got a real kick out of the recently released movie about the life of the Great Grandmaster Ip (Yip) Man. The turbulent times he lived through, along with his martial skills, made his life an ideal subject for the movies... even if it was fictionalized and exaggerated for the screen.
So, when will some wealthy Filipino producer make a decent film about one of the legendary figures in the FMAs? My personal choice would be the life of Tatang Ilustrisimo, both for his incredible skills and colorful background. But there are so many good possibilities. I'd also love to see good films profiling GGM Angel Cabales, or GGM Leo Giron. Not just for their stature in the arts, but for the almost epic story of their lives.
Anybody else have an idea for a good FMA movie?
