If you were a writer, would you agree to your novel being adapted into a movie?
>>
Nah only HBO since no one else can write
>>
>>25312127
Sure, I like money
>>
if i liked the director and adapted screenplay writer, then sure, why not
>>
Would I have to consort with Hebraics?

No, I'm antisemitic.V
>b-but the money
I would give everything I possess including my life if it ensured at least 1 kid-raping money-hoarding society-ruining Hebrew died. Unfortunately the only people offering this are Muslim who are also evil.
>>
>>25312127
Yes, I like money.
But if hypthetically I wouldn't get money for it, I'd probably still say yes out of sheer curiousity. Honestly I'd prefer if the movie becomes total dog shit and people say "the book was better".
>>
>>25312252
Regardless of that, it gets people interested and buying your book.
>>
>>25312127
Nah, Hollywood would turn into a piece of liberal propaganda with thinly veiled references and praises to judaism.
>>
>>25312191
This, that's a lot of money
I would try to get creative input and not let it get out of my hands since I would want a "good product" that advertises my books well. Movies are kind of shit but they can exist independently of a book and be their own thing without taking away from them.
>>
>>25312127
>only 3 of these adaptations are good
Considering the low success rate I'd be hesitant. It would also probably shatter my ego if the adaptation was a straight improvement like The Shining and The God Father.
>>
>>25312248
Jesus Christ everythings about jews to you people.
>>
>>25312368
I would probably like that, it would be cool if people took what I made and iterated on it to make something new that's good in its own right
>>
>>25312184
Alright Hemingway calm down
>>
>>25312127
Yes, solely so I could be a spiteful prick and say that my version was better till my dying breath
>>
>>25312368
Which 3? So I can call you a retard or fair
>>
>>25312127
maybe if I know the director and I have a fair amount of control, but what's even the point of adapting a book when you could read it and get more out of it.
>>
>>25312369
Hollywood is infested with them
>>
>>25312248
Being an anti-semetic tranny-game fan is a hell of a thing
>>
>>25312127
It's like Hemingway said:
>You throw them your book, they throw you the money, then you jump into your car and drive like hell back the way you came.
>>
>>25312492
>falling for the bait
>>
Michael Lewis (The Blind Side, Moneyball) writes non-fiction but has said he doesn't even start a project unless he thinks he can sell the film rights.
>>
>>25312127
Yes because I would need money. Of course it would suck to be like King and make a shit books that gets adapted into a banger movie but still better than being poor or being irrelevant.
>>
>>25312248
>gacha fag

>>25313688
I would rather work at McDonald's than have my artistic vision bastardised and messed up for all the world to see.

>muh trannies
Attraction to ladyboys is a long-standing tradition. Many emperors across time and culture have yearned for this. Yet women have categorically hindered the dream. Man is left to do things with hocus pocus and science. Only because Sauron, she doesn't share power.
>>
>>25312127
Only if it's anime
>>
>>25312127
Perhaps Eurofilm or an animation. No hollyjew slop.
>>
Depends on the particulars of the deal.
I would never sign my rights away to my work.
>>
>>25312127
depends entirely on who's doing the adapting. If Disney or Netflix wanted to do it I would say no. If Gaspar Noe or Steve McQueen said he wanted to do it, I would say yes.
>>
If I'm still working a day job I'd probably agree just to escape that (assuming I'm getting enough money to invest and live off by).
If I'm comfortable with money I'd probably refuse just to avoid having my book being turn into something completely different by some hacks.
>>
I would agree if they let me cast and direct. No, I'm not going to let you take my story and give it to your retarded nephew who thinks he can make it better by changing everything around until it doesn't even resemble the original story.
