I don't like to make things easy. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 03/06/2010 11:45:22 PM
1. What book would you most like to see adapted to film or TV?

I can't really think of anything that hasn't been already, to be honest... although I'm looking forward a lot to Game of Thrones if that counts.


It does, I suppose.


2. What would you least like to see (things that haven't yet been adapted)?

This one on the other hand is easy. The Silmarillion. In a "they mustn't ever do it" way, that is, not in the "I wouldn't watch it if they made it" way.


Even though I've not read it (being not very dedicated to Tolkien fandom), I know that you are correct.


Do you prefer to see plays on the stage or on film?

Stage, though I haven't seen many these past years, there was a time I saw way more plays...


I love watching plays. I need to do it more.

After finishing a book I never really think "gosh that would make a good film" Mark - 04/06/2010 01:35:19 PM 1019 Views
I do sometimes. Mostly with thrillers or the like. Rebekah - 05/06/2010 04:13:27 PM 949 Views
Luhrman largely stuck to Shakespeare's dialogue, though... and that worked amazingly well imho. *NM* Legolas - 05/06/2010 04:25:08 PM 446 Views
