    /b/ the movie.

    No wait, that would suck.

    I'd like a kotor-esqueStar Wars movie. That, or Codex Alera.

    A short film, for the WoT prologue would be awesome, I think.

    The Denarian Trilogy? That could be good...It would have to be done really well however.

    Enders Game.

    I agree. We've only been promised one for 5-6 years. I heard that after going through a slew of writers, they've finally asked Colfer to write the script. I can't wait to see it if it happens.

    They're making this.

    If you watch the ComicCon wrap up, you see Cliffy B addresing someone who asks if they are confident about the movie. I'll see if I can find a link.

    Can't find a link but I can give you the question and answer.

    "Are there any details you can give us on the GoW movie?"

    "A lot of people have said that there has never been a good video game movie ever made and you're like there was a lot of bad comic book movies before we've seen these great movies so someone's going to make a great one and we might as well try and be the first."

    That answered the question, didn't it?

    I'd love to see the Horus Heresy series (Warhammer 40k) made into a film, or a series of films. That would be fucking brilliant :D. Or the Ultramarines stories by Graham McNeill, that's a good set as well.

    Other than that... I want to see Neil Gaiman/Terry Pratchett's Good Omens done. It would make for a great parody film :p.

    I want to see the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov. I read the first two books of the original trilogy, and am deeply curious as to how it would look like on screen. As long as they don't get the I, Robot treatment.

    I also would like to see a movie about a genetically engineered Taiwanese chef whose steed is a stick insect and wields a gun that shoots velociraptors in a quest to save his big-busomed girlfriend.

    -Knights of the Old Republic. Preferably based on the first game. The plot was brilliant and it had awesome characters. That, and it was way better than the shitty prequels for the first trilogy.

    -The Dresden Files (Done right and following the books. The series was meh)

    -Hellblazer. This time without reeves and more faithful to the comic.

    -Übel Blatt. Impossible, but can't blame a guy for dreaming. Fantasy, action, gore, half-naked chicks and horny midget-elf on steroids.

    -Vampire The Masquerade: I'll never understand how it's never been done. They have it all, and the only thing they would have to do would be coming up with a decent plot. The premise is already set.

    -Duke Nuke'm. It would be the most badass movie ever made.

    Anyone could easily think of half a million different ways to fuck that one up... It would be badass, but can you find an actor to properly portray him? Screenwriter? Director? Can they actually pay tribute to the original game?

    A Gargoyles movie.

    A guy can dream, can't he?

    As long as they don't use anyone from the TV series.

    Does anyone know if the X-men movies are going to be included into the Ultimate Alliance movie?

    Also, I support the Artemis Fowl nomination.

    How about a nice western? Jonah Hex from DC for the grim and gritty, or Bat Lash for a light hearted action romp and stomp.

    Both DC and Marvel should open up there bottom tier assets.
    Nobody would give a damn if the DC comics first venture in Sci Fi was a bomb if it was Space Cabby. But it could have been the Fifth Element?

    Zelda... without speaking parts for Link. Probably OOT, though probably something more like a smattering of the games - Link would need a sidekick like Midna to talk while he's being silent (not Navi lol, "HEY LISTEN"), otherwise the movie would be kinda blah.

    It'd be ridiculously hard to pull off right, but it'd be cool. Zelda just has the right tone for a motion picture. Better chances at succeeding than most video games.

    Dragonball Z just for hilarity's sake.
