Well Sahara wasn't a super hit but it didn't boom either. Besides it made a good action flick. True it wasn't as good as the book but movies based on books never are. Anyway do you think we will see another outing with Dirk Pitt? I really hope so. So many books to adapt come on give him another movie.
 
I thought Sahara was pretty good, but I thought that Clive Cussler was pretty pissed off about it.
In which case he might not sell the rights to his other books.
 
i've "read" (by "read" i mean listened to the audio books on road trips and flights) and i seriously don't think the other books will transition well to movies. i mean, they'd make decent movies, like sahara, but the books are just far too 'james bond'... but without the james bond... know what i mean?

EDIT-- Nope, nevermind. Just added Studio cut.
