What Books do you REALLY Want to be Movies?

Postby FlyingTiger » Mon Dec 07, 2009 8:44 am

I don't mean, "I want it to be a movie so I can cheat on my book report."
I don't even mean, "Yeah, I'd go see it with friends a week or two after it came out."

What I mean is, "OMG If this was a movie you'd see me at the theater 5 hours before opening night, reserving my seat! Even if I was the only one there!"
THAT'S the kind of excitement I want to see. LOL

Right now, I want to see The Chaos Walking series in movies. It's a trilogy by Patrick Ness, and only two books have been released but I'm obsessed. Right now I'm almost done with the second. The first is called The Knife of Never Letting Go, and the second is called The Ask and The Answer. I would look up the title of the third but I'm afraid of spoilers. It's a great Future/Science Fiction/Action/Drama series. Of course, I would be deeply disappointed if the movie was bad, but I don't even want to think about that. There is no movie in the plans as far as I know, but I desperately want there to be.

So what books do you guys REALLY, TRULY, DEEPLY want to be made into movies? And how faithful would you be if it did come out. Watching the same bootleg trailer 9 times a day? Writing countdowns on every paper you touch?

I have my mother’s dreams,
I have my father’s eyes.
You can’t take that from me.
Just go ahead and try.
The Crescent City sleeps
while giants in the sky
preparing to unleash,
let loose a mighty cry.
Can nobody save us?
Will anyone try?
Pyre is burning,
the severance in tight.
And all along, they’re saying:
Help is on the way
(they said, they said)
Help is on the way.
They never came.

OMG!!! I love that series!!! LOL

Ok, enough spazzing. If i could pick a series to be made into a movie/movies it would have to be The Luxe series. It has so much drama in it, and the story is really good. I really like how the characters change so drastically through only four books. Anyway, i think they would make :) great movies.

I'd probably see it in theaters as many times as my budget would allow, and then buy them all as soon as they came out, and spend a whole day just watching nothing but The Luxe.

You probably hadn't heard of it but I would efinitely pay anything to see the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series in a movie! Except as real people and not stick figures XD
It is hilarious and I love all comedies (Unless they're R rated or something) I would die if they were in a movie! I would watch every single one as many times as I could when I didn't have school and when it came to DVD, I would own them all.

Interesting, they really are going to? Like is it final, or pending? (don't get me wrong, I loved the book)
