workingcinderellaman Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I was thinking that there are some old TV shows and books that should be made into full length movies. Someday they'll make this into a movie: http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/5/54353/2573138-six_million_dollar_man___toy_logo_color_med.jpg Only they'll have to call it The Bionic Man because of inflation. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it has been done already. When I was a teen I used to think about the show that way anyway.... Bobby Joe BTW would have been my choice after Kate Bradley of course :fury: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 A couple ideas I've had for years: 1) A society where assisted suicide is legal, and a "best friend" manipulates the main character to kill themselves over the course of the XX-minute drama 2) This would work better as a short, and the closest thing to it I know pf is "Psycho". It'd be a movie which presented itself as a drama, and a light hearted one at that... But during a 2-3 minute scene where two of the characters were having a conversation, there'd be a vicious looking clown staring through the window, which the characters wouldn't notice, even if looking through the window. It's just there or the audience's eye :) As for adaptions... I don't really think about that too much. Gerald's Game by Stephen King really could use a film adaption though :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relayer2112 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I would love to see a series of movies based on the Elric series of books by Michael Moorcock. The only thing that I would insist is that they be R-rated and not PG-13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Larry Niven's Ringworld. It would make an awesome movie on the scope of Lord of the Rings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Remake Harry Potter, the larger books in two parts at least, but in old-school animation with focus on character, plot and not only the visuals. Keep intact as many subplots as possible, and pick a talented voice cast, not the latest big star names. And keep Peeves. He was missed. And SPEW, the house elf kitchens, and for goodness sake make sure Goblet Of Fire actually reflects the feel and darkness of the novel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 War Of The Worlds. But in Victorian England. Not a musical, but with a score adapted from the Jeff Wayne masterpiece. And do not aim specifically for a family audience. The book is horrific. Keep it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 A Tale Of Two Cities. The one Dickens novel that could become a major blockbuster, recent years have seen films like Cold Mountain, Australia, Les Mis and the like finding a devoted audience. A really good script, cast and director could make this a movie for the ages. But I reckon we will see another 360 adaptations of Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist before we see a decent one of this. Why has this not been done yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waluigithewalrus Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Clearly, we need "Catcher In The Rye: The Movie" :P But now back to reality. What if...we made some movies from concept albums that have been put out? Like Clockwork Angels! Or if we want to get really trippy, The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway!
