Books to movies/shows

[SkyBandit]

If you have to pick any book to become a movie or tv series that hasn’t been turned into one yet, which would ya choose?

Personally I would do all jack reacher books, I would absolutely love a tv series Amazon did for one of the books! I want more of them! I have collected almost all of the books and read them! They are one of my favorite series of all time


Bonus question: which book to movie series is your favorite currently?

Mine would have to be the chronicles of Narnia. I absolutely love the first movie!

Adaptations are a tricky thing with me as I'm very picky about seeing my favourites adapted as I've been burned badly by a few of them (LOOKING AT YOU DREAMWORKS - For what you did to how to train your dragon and dr seuss' works) as well as everything that happened with the hobbit.

My favourite adaptation is of Good Omens.
While the tech is updated, the story and the humor for the most part has been kept in tact, which was incredibly important to the surviving author of the duo that wrote it.

as for things I'd love to see adapted
I'd love to see Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell adapted, as I think it could make for a very sweet sort of 10 episode series, or a nice movie.

The Eon/Eona series!!
It's about a girl living in a world of dragons, every year someone bonds to the dragon of that year (if it picks them) and becomes their "eyes". Women aren't allowed to go through with this though.
The entire premise is that the girl, Eona, goes undercover as a boy to compete for a chance to become a dragon's eyes.
It's an overall great read, the right amount of drama, action, and political conversations. Just an amazing book, not to mention the representation amongst the characters is so diverse while also being believable.

There's a transwomen who is part of a foreign delegation court, the main character herself is disabled, and it pulls from a lot of different cultures to make a beautiful melting pot!

I could literally gush about this serious forever!!!

I agree with this!! Good Omens had such a good adaption.

I'd honestly have to say ASOIAF to GOT is one of my favourite adaptations, yes they did screw some things up big time but the casting was phenomenal and I enjoyed the show so, so much.

I would absolutely die to see The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo adapted, unfortunately Netflix is making it into a movie.. I'm def team miniseries but.. a good cast can honestly make or break it.

I would also like to see Uprooted adapted! That book has such a lovely setting and I think it would make for a great movie. I have a feeling it wouldn't feel as crammed on the screen as it did in the book.
