I’ve often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

    I don’t see what making a film or TV series adds to any book, all they ever seem to do is a disservice to the original story in the attempt to squeeze as much money from it as possible.

    It’s that last part that effs it up. For example, I really liked Luhrman’s Romeo+Juliet. That was a creative interpretation. I enjoyed Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I thought the books were decent, but the movie captured the best bits, IMO. Early seasons of Game of Thrones were good. I like some of the changes made to move the internal dialog to conversations. It gave the side characters more life.

    It’s when the artistic vision is cast aside in the name of profit, then the work of art suffers.
