>DUNC movie>LoTR movie>Harry Potter movi>Game of Thrones seriesWhat's the next BIG novel genre novel franchise to become a BIG budget LIVE ACTION adaptation?for moi ? tis Dragon Lance. It would make for.a perfect movie series
for me it's medieval darth vader
>>219987244They could never do a good Dragon Lance adaptation because it has good vs evil characters, no millenial dialogue and a lack of constant sex. Just look at vox machina, that's what a Dragon Lance show would look like. For what it's worth I liked the animated movie, it just wasn't great.
Not sure why gay nigger communist loving Hollywood hasn't adapted the Culture books, even if loosely to focus more on the gay nigger communism in space
>>219987244There is an animated movie based on the first book.
Kushiel's Dart series.It's pure degeneracy.
>>219987244>We will never get a good Dragonlance movie>We will never get a good Belgariad movie>We will never get a good Riftwar movie>We will never get a good Forgotten Realms movieWhy live?
>>219988032Riftwar would be kino. Except the casting would be raceblind which would completely miss the point.
>>219987244Goldmoon looks like a mix of Anya Taylor-Joy and Isabel MyersThat specific image practically shaped the specific type of woman I'm into
>>219988523
Cast him
>>219988634Of course, lil Snood looks very much like an elf too
>>219988750There needs to be an ongoing show about elves starring Snood, Izzy, and Ayylmao
Goldmoon, my love
Im surprised they aren't shitting out soulless AI Redwall anime. I wish all of Arcanes budget and resources were instead spent on a series of different Redwall characters
It's time
>>219987630i'm a millennial and I have that book sitting on my shelf, do you?
>>219988784Her hair is starting to look rather Jessica Harper-esque there
>>219989187I'm a millennial too. I think some people don't realize that many of those cringey tendencies and sensibilities associated with millennials only comprise an (annoying) portion of millennials, and anyways first were seeded by gen xers with the same sensibilities (the quips, the thick rim glasses, the edgy 'grey morality', the soi beards, the constant 'subversion', etc)
>>219989279superhero movies didn't have many quips until I got into my 20's.
>>219989332No, but that style and tone was starting to be laid down by Josh Whedon earlier on, and then he brought it to the Marvel films. And Marvel was a perfect match for that because comics animation Spiderman always had corny quips, if not as bad as it got laterI think the preciousness and quipiness also came from all those gen-x-going-on-millennial shows and movies like Juno, The Office, Parks and Rec, etcWhich I can say I always found repulsive, tonally. But I hate middle class office people vibes and saw how that was starting to intermingle with 2000s hipster "quirkiness"
>There are 2 warring factions>One is seemingly composed entirely of beautiful nymphomaniac women who live in symbiosis with a race of spaceships that look like giant rectangles with continents on them>One is 12 foot tall crab alien religious zealots who seek to conquer the galaxy with all of their slave races>Protagonist joins the second faction>Sent on secret mission to medieval planet>Mission fails>Sentenced to execution by drowning in feces>Crab aliens rescue protagonist and then genocide the planet>Sent on secret mission to capture baby spaceship AI enemy>Immediately captured by space pirates>Most of the book is about protagonist taking over their ship as space pirates are killed in various ways>Protagonist does this to rescue his gf>Gf is alien assassin shapeshifter>Protagonist also is alien assassin shapeshifter
>>219987244Book of the New Sun
>>219990583Impossible
>>219987244I'd like to see a movie about the various pantheons warring
>>219988658jared leto
They've been teasing an Elric series for years, but it seems to be hung up in development hell. There's plenty of source material to work with. The normies would probably think it's just a Witcher ripoff or something, though, dumbfucks that they are.
>>219990583based>>219991456>Impossibleits not, just have Severian look at the camera and explain shit malcolm in the middle styleit'll be kino
>>219987630how about just add a lot of pointless nudity and voilà, prefect flick
>>219987630'millennial dialog' is out of touch gen X and late boomers trying to pitch to youngsters
>>219987244This could be an easy tv series that could last forever. Then theres already minorities in the book with established lore so they dont need to even race swap. Even have down with the evil king story line
>>219989480Yeah they seem to be laying the groundwork for Culture movies. I feel like we're about due for pic as well.
>>219992938I love the shit out of Glen Cook, but he's too gen X. Dragon Never Sleeps or Darkwar would be amazing material for one of those HBO animated series though.
>>219987244Probably Mistborne or Brandon Sandersons other novels. They’re absurdly popular among normies
>>219993094They were like 25 years ago. Sandy missed his window.
>>219993164His most recent Stormlight book is just 2 years old he still has some cultural relevance among fantasy readers. I would not be surprised to see him push to get either of them picked up and adapted by Netflix/HBO/Paramount.
>>219991545American Gods, Pantheon
>>219987244It really would be great. Plenty of action, an ensemble cast, tasslehoff. It has it all.Just started reading this. I wish they would've made this one in the 80s when they were making all their other creature horror schlock. Kinda goes off the rails in book 3, though.
>>219987244The current heads of D&D despise Weis and Hickman and have done everything they could to bury their books and make them be forgotten
>>219989480>There are 2 warring factionsdropped.always needs 3 factions or it's trash and unbalanced
>>219994940isn't this basically Willard? or did i read a different Rats book when i was a kid
>>219987244Two words opRedwall
>>219996541More like ben but not quite. The rats in the rats are more of a force of nature. They're nobody's friend. They only live to eat human flesh. Also, they're all fucking huge and seemingly intelligent. Also, british.
>>219996481I don't understand why. I can see why they'd distance themselves from drizzt since drow are a problematic race.
>>219987795Xeelee sequence is way cooler
>>219987244>DragonlanceThey should reference Spoony in the series if they do.
>>219996906They simply don’t give a shit. Many company heads don’t actually think of things in terms of financials. Many are actually just very petty and want to do things their way because they feel only their way is the best.
>>219996914>xelee sequence Genuinely unfilmable.
we're just gonna forget that a Dragonlance adaption would have kender in it?
>>219987853It's terrible.
>What's the next BIG novel genre novel franchise to become a BIG budget LIVE ACTION adaptation?Nothing because nobody reads
>>219988658Eldori guy could do double duty with him and caramon.
>>219998285Kender are kino af.
>>219998450Elordi*
>>219998535Kender are retarded
>>219998569They're fun, lively and exciting.
>>219998649They’re easily the worst part of the setting
>>219989028I opened this in a bookstore 10 years ago because I love dinosaurs but it didn't really grab me. Worth reading?
>>219987244>What's the next BIG novel genre novel franchise to become a BIG budget LIVE ACTION adaptation?Probably Age of Madness by Joe Abercrombie. Everything after he finished The First Law trilogy feels like it was written to be adapted, and Cameron's bought the rights to adapt his shitty fantasy Suicide Squad bookDungeon Crawler Carl is getting a live action version from Seth Macfarlane, and that's going to cost a fortune just from how many characters are non-human
>>219999008No that would be gully dwarves.
>>219993316Yeah but nobody outside his aging fan club reads that shit. He's one of those writers like Jon Norman or Laurel Hamilton who have a few good books and then live on the back of their core fanbase without attempting to do anything new.
>>219996914Culture is way sexier
>>219987244>next BIG novel genre novel
Book of the New Sun plz
this
>>219987244>Dragon Lance.Joe Manganiello tried to make it a couple of years ago, he even wated to buy the rights, Hsbro said no.
>>219988032anon...
>>219991755This should be animated. There would be way too many scenes set in cgi landscapes otherwise.
>>220001109as a setting forgotten realms is too general and generic. lets get a shadowrun movie I always wonder why they never cashed in on the vaporwave or cyberpunk fad that was popular in 2016
>>220001081Hollywood would never
>>220001109every part of this movie sucked ass, except maybe a couple of the actors being decently charismatic
>>219987795Because you can't have a show where 3 legged space Muslims are the bad guys
>>220001137generic is what people want from fantasy, lord of the rings made over a billion dollars and it's the most generic setting imaginable
>>220001116Should be claymation
I unironically believe pic rel could be adequately adapted in a shortform series.
>>220001195naw but see cyberpunk and all the -punks are also generic but they're generic in a different way
>>219988658Willem DaFoe after 6 months of Abromovic "acting lessons"
>>219987244>woemn wearing pants in medievalesque fantasyFuck, why does this have to be a thing?Women did not wear pants until 20th century.Heck men, barely wore pants before the 17th century.
>>219998285Tasslehoff as a Chris Tucker/young Eddie Murphy type, tell me you ain't laughin?
>>220001436Half the books are an unreliable narrator lying to the reader while experiencing apotheosis. Nightmare to adapt
it would never happen and that's a good thing. this campaign makes modern day tranny pnp fans piss and shit their pants

Comedic freeze frame of Jack's goofy expression >"Yeah, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation">Shot of Jack trying to chop the head off a training dummy and slipping in mud. Apprentice torturers all laugh.>"Well, I've got a pretty good memory... In fact..." >Shot of Jack gingerly picking up a massive poisonous flower. At the last moment he sneezes and sends leaves blowing everywhere>"I might have had some presentiment of my future all along">Shot of Jack stumbling on stage, carrying a giant scroll that says SCRIPT on the outside while an audience boos and throws tomatoes>"But nobody could have expected all this!">Shot of Jack Black and Little Severian (played by Jackass's Wee Man) climbing a mountain>Shot of Jack running away from an Alzabo >Shot of Jack kissing Dorcas >Dorcas says "I love you grandson">Cut to Jack's shocked expression >Triskele whines and puts his paw in front of his eyes >"Coming this New Sun-mer"
>>220001704Movie based on Darksun would be AWESOME.
>>219991755Oh you Elric spergs make it known quick that it is not a ripoff. Barely talk about the series itself, just always whining about Witcher
>>219993005>he's too gen XI don't remember the books ever going on about how much it sucks to have a stable job and live in a nice suburb.
>>219987244>there will never be a good book honest John Carter series It hurts
>>219987244they would make Sturm black
>>220004184Tanis, too, more than likely. Also, Kitiara.
>>219987244>Pics you can smell
>>220001081What's "this"?
>>220004924The Night Land, a 1912 weird fiction novel.
>>219987244ikr we could get years of mileage pissing and whining about which chars would be black and how no-one else "understands" these pretty straightforward stories except a bunch of catty neckbeards on this board!
>>219998649They're sufficiently similar to halflings to excite opportunistic bad faith intellectual property lawsuits.
>>220005062Which didn't happen. They don't have hairy feet. They are affected by wanderlust which hobbits definitely don't have, being homebodies. They are fearless, again wholly unlike hobbits. They're nothing alike besides being short.
>>220005037>which chars would be blackOnes from Northern Ergoth, I imagine, although that's probably far too prosaic an explanation to be popular with these shitflakes.
>>220004924Kino setting, almost unreadable book.
>>219987244I´d rather not make any suggestions. They are just going to fuck whatever up.
>>219987244>Tannis Black-Elven
>huuuuuh they should adapt this masterpiece [generic neckbeard fantasy] but they would totally ruin it because jooos and wymeeeen not because it's another nerd wankfest with scantily clad muscle-women with gigatits, turbo-chads with maxed STR and DEX and "undescribable" and "unfathomable" horrors...
>>220001195Lord of the Rings is only generic because everyone else copied it
The Elric Saga
>>220005696Read this if you don’t like old style of the original
>>220006706Are those both male hands. Are you telling him to read gay porn?
>>219988954I've been dreaming of a Mossflower movie/series for decades. Would be amazing if AI finally gave it to us.
>>220001154I think it was decent overall, considering that Wizards of the Coast famously made the production hell for everyone involved.
>>219988103Stop reminding me of Wheel of Time.
>>219994940Hete you go. Its shit like the Fluke movie adaption.
Dragonlance isn't that good to adapt. They're books you read when you're a teenager to go "woah!", and even then only the first 3 are worth actually looking into. The rest is below average.
>>220006794It’s lovecraftian horror
I remember reading a couple of these books when I was a young lad, in one of them a bunch of midgets traveled to the moon, in the other some buff barbarian dude went on an adventure to do whatever the fuck.I remember both to be kinda kino, but who knows, it was a long time ago I don't remember much of it. I only read them because some lass I met on an old MMO was obsessed about them and won't ever shut up about them, I think she had a thing for me but I was retarded.
