XO Manowar. No idea who I would cast as a 5th century Visigoth. I would get a bunch of synthwave and electronic artists and other musicians to create an original album for the movie soundtrack. Getting Perturbator and Gary Numan cooking together would be amazing. Rendered for the most ubiquitous 3d tech installed in theaters, and storyboard/cinematography is designed to take advantage of that.

A full movie where Mario is the villain.

Random fact: Donkey Kong Jr. (1982) is the only game in the Mario franchise where Mario is the antagonist.
The Grand Tour series by Ben Bova. The Orion series is pretty damned good too.
I would love to sell my trilogy, Dante's Darkness, starting with Winds as a six episode mini series. Yes, the writing is rough, but the story is fun and power creep but not overwhelming. Unfortunately, I wrote about the end of the world right before shit went really South. Remember your UV anal cleansings, folks!
unicron vs galactus, recent movies featuring either of these enemies were quite a disappointment.
also wrapping up SGA, sgu with a movie, but the showrunners are very hesitant to write any sg related works right now.
A feature-length movie set in the Armored Core universe. Amazon/MGM did a very short film as part of the Secret Level anthology, and it was damn awesome.
I always wanted an adaptation of Jonathan Stroud's Bartimaeus Sequence trilogy, particularly the first book The Amulet of Samarkand. Various production companies have been sitting on the rights for over two decades now, but there continues to be no sign of any movement on it. Although, seeing how Disney butchered its adaptation of Artemis Fowl has made me reconsider whether I want this to happen.
Another I've long wanted is a film set in the universe of The Secret World, though perhaps it would better suit a TV series as was once planned.
Well, it was Legend of Zelda; but after that last Mario movie, Nintendo is actually making one. So then it was Dark Souls, but they are making a movie of that too!
Though I have major doubts about either being anywhere close to what I imagine they could be.
All I have left is the Neuromancer series and Beyond the Mountains of Madness. Both have attempts at a film adaptation but either they were straight up killed or are stuck in production hell.
Anything else is entirely made up in my own head, so will likely never get made unless I come into a lotta money before I die.
“Blood Music” would be such an amazing body horror/scifi movie to put out right now. Post covid that book hits way harder. Alex Garland would be my producer of choice. Oscar Isaac as Virgil, Stellan Skarsgard as Dr Bernard.
Movie/TV adaption of the comic Saga. It will never happen because Vaughn has said it's the one comic of his he would never let be adapted.
A full adaptation of Lord of the Rings that's true to Tolkien's vision.
What big shifts would occur between the originals (which I read as a teen but that was ages ago) and the Peter Jackson trilogy? Coles notes for thekkids who didn't pay attention.
Is it pronounced Jandalf?
The Dark Tower
A “side” movie set in the Avatar (Airbender) world. Maybe Republic City detective noir, or an adventure in some Kyoshi Era (or even more ancient) new place.
Bending, spirits, the cultural flair, the setting's just too awesome and is begging for side stories.
Grey Jedi Noir. Solving a case for the light side while using dark side talents would be amazing.
I would like a Star Wars that’s not from the perspective of Rebels or Empire but one that’s about the arms dealers who sell to both of them.
They hinted at this during the sequel trilogy but the idea was never developed further.
Just play Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II.:3
+1
More fantasy noir in general, please.
On that note, I’d love a straight up KOTOR II movie (or trilogy?)
And it would be the absolute last thing Disney funds. The whole thing's literally a deconstruction of Star Wars.
An actual adaptation of Jumper, directed by Daren Aronofski.
Edit: The whole series really. With 4 years between Jumper and Reflex, then 17 years before Impulse and Exo are made back to back. Doing it that way all the actors will age properly.
would have loved a full-length live action Predator movie with any of the 3 Earth settings that were in Predator: Killer of Killers but, well, then they used them for Killer of Killers so i am p sure thats out of the question now. good thing there's a bunch of other cool potential settings, i guess? ;_;
