[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 7193090, member: 19675"] After giving it some in depth thought... Glen Cook's [I]Black Company[/I], if handled right by the upcoming film, could do well enough to flesh out the film franchise. His Garrett, P.I. books could work on TV for ABC, Fox, SyFy or another cable company. John Butcher's [I]Dresden Files[/I] deserves another shot, but Simon Green's similar [I]Nightside[/I] novels might be a better shot, not having "failed" before. Green's "Bondian" [I]Secret Hisoty[/I] novels likewise have a good mix of modern fantasy and action that would translate well. I'd love to see Moorcock's work on the screen, but after many attempts with no finished products, we may be out of luck on seeing Elric, Corum, Jerry Cornelius, or any of the other Eternal Champions. Harry Turtledove's epic [I]Darkness[/I] novels- a fantasy world version of WW2- has it all. But it probably is too obscure to get the nod. Terry Brooks' [I]Shannara[/I] property is being made into a middling TV show as we speak. Could go either way. The "prequel" [I]Knight of the Word[/I] series would be a good option if [I]Shannara[/I] succeeds. Kurt R. A. Giambastiani's [I]Fallen Cloud[/I] could work very well, especially for the North American fantasy market. Clive Barker's [I]Imajica[/I] would translate well. If Neil Gaiman's [I]American Gods[/I] holds up. I could see his [I]Neverwhere[/I] get redone and expanded. Dean Koontz' [I]Odd Thomas[/I] got made into a movie in...2012? Didn't get a lot of buzz- it's now in my DVR, waiting for me to watch it. But the series might do better on the small screen. Personally, I loved [I]Constantine[/I], despite the changes made to fit it in American broadcast TV. (The Keanu Reeves movie was...meh.) I'd give it another shot. [/QUOTE]
