[QUOTE="AmerginLiath, post: 7772276, member: 777"] I always think about how you could take the three books of The Chronicles, the intistial books of The Lost Chronicles, the various bits of Tales and Meetings Sextant that occur within and around the two trilogies, and have the complete through-line of a television series on he War of the Lance. It already has a dynamic cast of characters (complete with a range of ages and races and a bunch of strong female protagonists and antagonists), a well-realized world with lots of zoomed-in locations and cultures, and a style that can appeal to both adults and youth (it’s a high fantasy war-romance series, with lots of action and military drama but not the blood ‘n bits of GoT, so it fits a PG-13 window). Forgotten Realms still strikes me as the property to use for film, since its source material tends to be focused upon one or two protagonists in a single area of Faerun. Dragonlance, by comparison, has the stock in trade of a large cast being split up and recombining with new characters along the way across a continent being changed by whichever war is at hand. That’s perfect for modern streaming television (especially with how sci-fi and fantasy adaptations are being used across platforms, including those without the breadth of the War of the Lance).
