That's not what Bradley was talking about. The Chinese were not going to let MacArthur establish a far-right client state on their doorstep, which is what MacArthur was doing by trying to install Rhee as the leader of a united Korea. Doing that would have caused a massive land war halfway around the world against the then-united Sino-Soviet bloc, which would have been unwinnable.
Frankly, MacArthur didn't even care about Korean politics. He cared too much about American politics and not enough about Korean politics. That's why he was relieved of command. -

The Inchon landing was one of the most brilliant amphibious assaults in history, and if the Chinese hadn't intervened it would have been the decisive event of the Korean War. You could certainly make a film about that.

I would think that the greater challenge, if you wish to call it that, is to make a mini-series about the Great War. It is after all the centennial from 2014-2018. What better time to come out with a series on that subject?
