Hm. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 04/06/2010 09:38:35 AM
1. What book would you most like to see adapted to film or TV?

1. Watership Down. The existing examples all suck.

I've not read the book, and I hate the animated version from the 80s.

2. The Enchanted Forest Chronicles. Though judging by what was done to The Dark is Rising...maybe not.

Heh

3. Perdido Street Station or Un Lun Dun. Those would just be funky cool to see.

Hm. Perhaps. I can see them going badly wrong.

4. Blade of Tyshalle/Heroes Die. Large sections of those would make excellent action movies.

~looks into~


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

Nothing in particular I don't think. I've given up caring whether something has been adapted well or not.


Heh, Hollywood has killed your hope?

After finishing a book I never really think "gosh that would make a good film" Mark - 04/06/2010 01:35:19 PM 1066 Views
I do sometimes. Mostly with thrillers or the like. Rebekah - 05/06/2010 04:13:27 PM 999 Views
Luhrman largely stuck to Shakespeare's dialogue, though... and that worked amazingly well imho. *NM* Legolas - 05/06/2010 04:25:08 PM 465 Views
