Anyone read a book that they would translate into a Movie?
I would love to see something Mechwarrior related, I just dont know how that would translate to the screen.
Another interesting series that might be interesting was by Margaret Weis, the Star of Guardians series...
Starting with The Lost King
The Lost King (1990): Seventeen-year-old Dion Starfire has lived on a backwater planet, Syrac 7, with Platus Morianna for his entire life, but that life is about to turn upside down as Sagan has finally found them. Platus contacts Mendaharin "Tusk" Tusca, the son of an old friend, and pays him to take Dion off-planet. Platus himself stays behind and buys time with his life. Tusk and Dion travel to the planet Vangelis to seek the advice of General John Dixter. Sagan, for his part, manages to track down Maigrey Morianna who has also been off-radar for seventeen years. The fact that they were once lovers does not stop him from arresting her as a monarchist and sentencing her to trial. Sagan then travels to Vangelis to help put down the rebellion (i.e., Dixter's forces). Dion goes voluntarily to the Warlord's flagship, where Sagan and Maigrey informed him of his true heritage. The novel is punctuated by an attack from the Corasians, an alien race bent on conquering our galaxy.
