Your wish is granted.
A serious take on Starship Troopers. I love the trilogy and think they are a lot of fun but I do love the novel and would like to see it taken seriously in an adaptation.
Heard HBO bought the rights to shoot the Dune series. So my wish is already being fulfilled.
finnegans wake
jointly directed by chris nolan and bono
Mini series akin to Generation Kill/Band of Brothers

Please no.
They'd whitewash the Lady as though she was just an innocent bystander who has to do bad things to survive.

As much as I'd like that I don't want the GoT plebs destroying it for me, as they inevitably would
>>70083603
Why would the GoT cunts have anything to do with it?
>>70083678
They would latch onto it and suck all the life out of it because it's better in every way
It would probably be shit but eh why not.
>>70083716
BotNS doesn't seem like their thing though.
They wouldn't be able to follow up anything.
In addition to every episode that lasts 90 minutes to just convey some basic stuff, you'd have to have another 90 minutes explaining what exactly happened to them.

i haven't red this one but "Carrion Comfort" by the same author i did, and i'm amazed that no studio bought the rights to it

It can't be made anymore, because the movie will have to constantly make up more terrible things about the Federation. If they show it like it is in the book, people will call the filmmakers facists.
Infinite Jest, with Bill Wilson as David Foster Wallace
>>70085202
fucking del Toro kills everything he touches

Actually heard about that being adapted into a TV series for AMC so lucky you.
>>70089089
Supposedly it's set to premiere in 2017
AMC damn well better shuffly Colm Meaney over from Hell on Wheels to The Terror to play Crozier. He not only looks like the real guy but he's also Irish and the right age. They would be complete morons not to jump on that.

Nolan already did the plane scene though.
>>70083136
>no female characters
Good luck OP. Not in today's political environment.

Lady Silence is the key to the whole thing.
She isn't able to talk though.
>>70083136
i'm surprised it hasn't been adapted since it's heralded as the most influential sci-fi novell ever
or anything with this sort of feels to it
>>70090333
Spielberg is making Ready Player One.
>>70090609

Tale of Otori
YA with a fag monk all with Asian
>>70090661

>>70090661
first book was all right but it got so tedious as it went along.
i understand the point is that thomas wasn't likeable, but he was also completely uninteresting.
>>70090667
is that good?
It was on my reading list but never got to read it.
>>70090268
>the only female character has to keep her trap shut
This oughtta be good
>>70083375
>>70083678
>>70083762
Literally unfilmable
>>70083136
The Old Testament
Aranofsky's Noah was really good desu
