nameraka Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 so we don't get any more bad adaptions of tv shows or reboots of films that didn't need to be rebooted. my suggestions: "Sharp Teeth" by Toby Barlow http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1724365.Sharp_Teeth "Number9dream" David Mitchell http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6820.number9dream "The Raw Shark Texts" Steven Hall http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/144800.The_Raw_Shark_Texts
Ric Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 Sure, lots of reboots are stupid but don't get people being upset about them. Don't have to watch.
bnmjy Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie . . . but with its original title. :poop:
Ric Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 . . . but with its original title. :poop: This is why I can never keep many novel/movie adaptations straight, so many change the title.
fuggnificent Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 Theres plenty of novels being converted but i wouldn't mind the rest of anne rices novels.
nameraka Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 Sure, lots of reboots are stupid but don't get people being upset about them. Don't have to watch. what makes you think i'm upset? ::HMM:: just offering alternatives that i would prefer.
nameraka Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie . . . but with its original title. :poop: that was 10 little indians right? yeah, i don't think you could sneak that past the pc police.
nameraka Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 Theres plenty of novels being converted but i wouldn't mind the rest of anne rices novels. did they ever do any of the mayfair witches books? i remember liking those...
Ric Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 what makes you think i'm upset? ::HMM:: just offering alternatives that i would prefer. Not you specifically, meant all the "mah childhood!" and "no original movies exist anymore!" people. Topic made me think of them.
nameraka Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 Not you specifically, meant all the "mah childhood!" and "no original movies exist anymore!" people. Topic made me think of them. got it. yeah. those people have no chill.
fuggnificent Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 did they ever do any of the mayfair witches books? i remember liking those... no and those would be awesome! and they better keep all the incest. they did feast of all saints and two from the vampire chronicles.
mthor Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 I 'd like to see somebody try to film House of Leaves. Just reading it was weird enough - I don't know if you could even make into a movie, but it'd be interesting to watch someone try.
NaBarney Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Invisible Monsters + Rant, both by Chuck Palahniuk No idea how these haven't been made yet considering how successful fight club was. Instead we got Choke.

Just reading it was weird enough - I don't know if you could even make into a movie, but it'd be interesting to watch someone try. yeah. good luck with that. not sure that's filmable. cool book though.
Bouvre Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 so we don't get any more bad adaptions of tv shows or reboots of films that didn't need to be rebooted. my suggestions: "Sharp Teeth" by Toby Barlow http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1724365.Sharp_Teeth "Number9dream" David Mitchell http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6820.number9dream "The Raw Shark Texts" Steven Hall http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/144800.The_Raw_Shark_Texts If Jarmusch didn't just do Paterson, and decided to pursue another film like Dead Man or Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai, he'd be the director I'd love to see do Sharp Teeth.
Bouvre Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 I still, very badly, want the Coen Brothers to direct Chabon's The Yiddish Policemen's Union, as they had written a draft. The only problem is it seems they've moved on.
