Films you would like to see made...

So what films would you like to see be made, or remade?
I personal would love to see a command and conquer film.
What about you guys?

Cool

Of games Id like to see the very first Thief made although any of the 3 I would be happy.

Of books Midnight at the Well of Souls. Something I though could only be made as a cartoon but since Lord of the Rings I think this could be made using actors.

Whilst mentioning LOTR I think Icewind Dale would make a good fantasy film which the made a game of but it had nothing to do with the book only the location. Of maybe Sword of Shanara.

I did get one book wish come true when they made the TV series of Sharpe.

same applies for predator 2.

Rogue Trooper - apparently its a game now so it'll be a film soon.
The Dark Knight Returns.
The Preacher.

All on the proviso that the original source is treated as the storyboard.

I have a few I'd like to see...

Books -

House of Leaves
Demons

Comics -

Witchblade
Darkness
Fathom
Darkchylde
Warlands Saga
Walking Dead
30 Days of Night

Games -

Fear effect
Project Zero
Forbidden Siren
Starlancer
Morrowind/Oblivion
Call of Duty

Toy lines/80's cartoons -

Think thats about it
But they can only make them if they do it properly & arent some typical Hollywood cash in.
Especially the comics!!

Not sure if there will be another Firefly film but thats certainly a direction DA could take. I think it would need a bigger budget to tempt Jessica Alba back, unless they produced some sort of spin off.

Following on from a Harryhausen thread. I would like to see one of the greek mythgological epics brought to film stories from the illiad etc, not the poncy tv versions. Big budget, spot on special effects and good actors/actresses. Am i asking for too much??

HELL YES !!! I would love to see Dark Angel on the big screen or even a spin-off if Jessica Alba wouldn't return. One thing's for certain it would be great to see Jessica Alba in something decent for a change. I don't think I have seen anything she's made since dark Angel that I actually like.

I would also like to see a bunch of sequels to Serenity. one thing's for certain if they ever did continue the franchise they would make a lot more money at the Box Office next time!


Alien 5, Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy 2, Terminator 4 (is finally going to be made!) a big-screen version of Buffy the Vampire slayer, a big-screen version of Space: Above and Beyondset after the events of the final episode, either continuing or giving it a proper ending.

Lastly and by no means any less important, I really want see a Farscape trilogy on the big screen. If there was ever a series that could be the next Star Wars that has to be Farscape! A truly imaginative and diverse universe that would look absolutely amazing on the big screen.

Would be good. Can't see it happening or being done well enough though.
