Do you think we will ever get a Book of the New Sun adaptation?I such a thing even possible?
>>200736444What makes this different from every other fantasy slop If there’s no answer to that it will never be made
>>200736506What at first appears to be a fantasy world slowly reveals itself to in fact be a far distant future, one that has regressed to a semi-medieval level of technology and the remnants of high technology are viewed as fantastic and mystical objects. It is a dying world where the sun is weak and red and the stars can be seen even during the day. A world waiting for a New Sun.And then there is just the way it is written and the dialogue.
Elizabeth Debicki would be perfect casting for Thecla
>>200736573>dying earthAh well that’s your problem right there. Not a popular subgenre anymore even within fantasy/sci-fi circles. Too close to reality, perhaps. As for how it’s written, only the dialogue would translate to the screen, and then only a portion of that.At the end of the day most sci-fi and fantasy stories written for the page would not make for good adaptations. We have far more bad examples of that than good.
>>200736444No. Anyone that wants a BotNS adaptation is a retard who I'm ashamed to associate with.
>>200736506The prose. The prose is one hundred percent of the appeal. The entire point of the book is how it's written in that it imparts almost a dreamlike state onto you. It gives just enough description for you to paint a clear mental picture, but not enough detail so you're ever quite sure what you're supposed to be seeing. It's like visiting an alien world, and seeing someone else's interpretation of this imagery completely defeats the entire point of these books' existence.
