I wonder what the studios in Hollywood are thinking when they decide which book that should be made into a movie, and which book that should not be made.
Were the Twilight books really that much of a "hype" before the franchise started? I can't recall anything about them before the first movie was released in the cinemas.
Other book series seem to never get the chance. I mean, look at Wolf Brother. Quite populare? Or am I wrong?
Artemis Fowl is even more talked about. The question is: why don't they make any movies out of these, or others as well?
G.P Taylor has written a couple of really dark books with christian elements, Shadowmancer was the first. He's also written a series about a boy called Mariah Mundi.
Then we have another series about Septimus Heap, by Angie Sage.
Terry Pratchett's Johnny Maxwell series has been made into a few adaptions, but not as a really big movie with a lot of special effects. Why?
They tried with Golden Compass and Dark is Rising. They flopped, yes, but at least the first one was good. I don't demand a whole book series to me adapted, just the first. That will be fine with me, as long as it is worth watching. The only thing I want to see to the end is Narnia. Hope they will make all of them, just as they did with the Harry Potters
What are your opinions, people?
EDIT: Percy Jackson was an ok movie. And it seems like wer're getting a sequel now
