a/k/a the republican platform.

It's a genre that practically writes itself nowadays...

I'd like to see a movie series based on the Elric saga.

I don't think there's ever been a rendition of the stories in a visual medium before.

I had to look this up at wiki.
whew

And no one has ever made a movie about him. They made a movie about a D-level superhero (Green Lantern), and people stayed away in droves. Why not make a movie about a character that has a built-in audience? Maybe not as large an audience as for Harry Potter or Lord Of The Rings, but still, a dedicated audience of Elric fanboys.

It might be that the intersection between people who like fantasy action movies and people who like movies about self-loathing, moody, introspective drug addicts isn't enough to make money. Of course, the same could be said of Game of Thrones, and that's making tons of money. I'd watch it for sure though.

I'd say:

Elric =/= Conan

Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones =/= Tolkien and Tolkien derivatives

The vampire sword is always a winner.

No.

Probably end-of-days dystopia. Future-date, a world short of resources and racked by resource-wars, people dying en-mass, a love story among the ashes and because this has Michael Bay written all over it, a lot of gratuitous nudity and explosions. Lord knows the world cannot end without the visible nipples of an ingenue and a fiery collapsing global-landmark.

Possibly Sigourney Weaver's finest films.

with Aaron Eckhart (Two Face from The Dark Knight movie with Heath Ledger's Joke) as The Monster.

hopefully?

I loved this series and I could not find any books done about it

Galactic Empires

He's calling me.

who are torn in twenty different directions by ridiculously overblown drama in their lives and who are constantly trading digs against each other or trying to get the chance to cheat on each other. And I hope we've seen an end to the hillbilly cannibal movies featuring unpleasant young people getting stranded in the woods inhabited by degenerate mutants and picked off one by one. Unless maybe it's a comedic spoof of a hillbilly cannibal horror movie.

The Pale Lady (La Dame Pale) by Alexandre Dumas was one of the first vampire oriented works of fiction, predating Carmilla and Dracula. It's a vampire love triangle (one of two princes courting the beautiful pale lady is one of the undead) set in the Carpathians and is very atmospheric, romantic, dark, and gothic. What Twilight could have been if it had been well-written.

Made me ill.

What kind of sick fetish is Gor books?

and avoids Weber's somewhat conservative politics (no where near as conservative as Orson Scott Card and only mildly mentioned within the books), I think that it could be a good series.

The difficulty will be in finding a six foot tall Asian or part-Asian woman with command presence and acting skills!

She has a screen presence and can probably be made to look a bit taller with shoes and camera angles.

No idea of the character and age, though. (Liu Yifei is also 5'7" - she was in Forbidden Kingdom for a reference)

If they can have 5'8" Mel Gibson playing 6 1/2 foot tall William Wallace, why not?

Some guy said that Wallace was supposed to be 7 feet tall - and, Wallace (Gibson) responded that he could also kill the English with fireballs out of his ass or something like that. (or was it lightning bolts)

Gibson is a good actor and been in a lot of good movies, but he's f-ed up outside of acting.

Loved sam weavers character as well.

Moon Bloodgood is 5'10" and the Japanese actress in Wolverine - Tao Okamoto - is listed at 5' 9 1/2"

I mean, he's obviously no fan of religious extremism and he doesn't seem to be homophobic at all. Hell, polyamory is somewhat common and accepted in the Honorverse.

Well done, well acted, clever plot.

Awesome film.

because they are awesome. I waited a long time for zombies to become popular, and I am not ready to give this trend up.

lol

but what kind of plotline would there be?

Sci fi geeks. There you go a winner.

This doesn't seem like plot material, the other stuff does though.

It would be visually stunning.

There's definitely some people here in Minneapolis who are leaning that way.

Would make for a very artistic shop at walmart.

wouldn't be caught dead in a Walmart.

Recent scientific discoveries open the doors to a whole host of story plots; suddenly there's a lot of meat on the bone.

With the advances in CGI these could be great.
