My attention span makes reading really hard. I read this from start to finish. It’s well worth the read if you’re into stories like it

hASHfunction ,

this would make an incredible adult animated series. I think doing skitter’s bugs would be difficult as a live action

The Red Rising series is worth it.

I feel like a Dark Elf Trilogy could only bring disappointment

Murderbot, but I don’t think it could make the transition to film.

I thought that while reading it, so good but first person narrations can never really get adapted well.

MrFunnyMoustache ,

It isn’t that they can never get adapted well, it’s just much harder to do. I think Fate/Stay Night has examples of terrible and great adaptations. Studio Deen’s adaptation of the Fate route was awful, their adaptation of Unlimited Blade Works was even worse. Ufotable’s adaptation of Unlimited Blade Works was pretty good, and their adaptation of Heaven’s Feel was great.

Mushoku Tensei was adapted amazingly, and while many details were left out, the adaptation is a masterclass of how to do it well.

If we’re talking about ordinary books, Andy Weir’s The Martian had a pretty good adaptation, and I am expecting Project Hail Mary to be good as well.

There actually was a 2008 animated Dragonlance movie with a good voice cast. But I hear it was terrible and I haven’t forced myself to watch it.

Yeah, it is. Out of boredom, I watched it one Sunday when I had nothing to do and could only make like 20 minutes into it before I shut it off. It is not good at all lol.Here it is in its horrible glory

I want to see some Brandon Sanderson novels made into movies or TV shows. Preferably animated as I don’t think a live action would work.

Word is that it’s coming. And he’s probably the most well known speculative fiction author without an adaptation.

Yes! The graphic audiobooks have been awesome.

The Dying Earth series by Jack Vance.
It’s an old series, but the imagination and world building put into it should make for some great stories.

Earthbound/Mother 3 live action and serialised (or pretty much anything nintendo—zelda type got thing would be cool)

I’d love the Wayfarer’s series to be a collection of short TV shows. They could do like 6 hour long episodes per book. It would great

I’d like to see some 40k movies. Start with the Horus Heresy.

TransplantedSconie OP ,

You’re in luck!

As long as they do a better job than with rings of power.

They announced an Illuminatus! series back in 2019 that I haven’t heard any news of since.

Its not a series, just a standalone book but I would love to see a stop motion movie of the magnum opus. It’s a book that was written by the makers of a stop motion short called the maker. I would love to see what they could do with a proper budget

dewritoninja ,

youtu.be/YDXOioU_OKM?feature=shared here’s the short that inspired the book

FishLake ,

The Commonwealth Saga (Pandora’s Star and Judas Unchained) by Peter F. Hamilton would make a great serialized TV drama.
