I’ve often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

I really don’t know about this one. I love the books, and with their success they’ve genome a bit more compatible with a screen adaptation, but a lot of it, and especially the first one, is a lot of internal monologue. In addition, the space physics and combat are amazing, but don’t translate into visuals easily either. Like I said, love the story, and pains me to say it. Some stories are just not made for the screen, and I think this is one.
The Malazan Book of the Fallen, by Steven Erikson.
GONE, really enjoyed that as a kid and when they then started making hunger game movies and everyone seemed to be following the formula I think it would’ve worked a treat around that time. It’s not that similar to those however it’s more supernatural mystery lord of the flies, but it would’ve felt like it belonged alongside the lines of hunger games and maze runner.
On another note the Jack Tanner books, especially Odin Mission would make great films or short series per book. Really enjoyed the pseudo retelling of world war 2 with bits of fiction mixed in.
Ender’s Game.
Hate the author, love the series. I’ve never been more angry with a movie, and a TV series with someone that’s actually read the books BUT has also largely disassociated from OSC would go a long way towards repairing things.
The Webnovel “Mother of Learning” It has four arcs. Each arc is long enough to be made into two seasons, each containing 8 episodes.
