Lord of the Rings was easily the greatest fantasy movie-adaption series of all time. We know that, right? After their success, there are many books that I would like to see made into films. I hope LOTR starts some kind of trend where more great books are made into films.

I would like to see The Hunter's Blades Trilogy by R.A. Salvatore made into films. The third book, The Two Swords, isn't even out yet, but The Thousand Orcs and The Lone Drow were frickin' excellent!!

Anything Drizzt Do'urden, I'd say. Even though the only books I've read are TTO and TLD; and The Crystal Shard (The Icewind Dale Trilogy).

What would you guys like to see?

I'd like to see the Baldur's Gate series, the games and not the books, adapted. Those would be AWSOME movies!

I'd like to see a decent adaptation of The Last Castle Rock Story: Needful Things made. It would be awsome if they just tried.

Most anything by David Eddings, but preferred the "Elenium" and the "Timuli" series.

You guys are missing one of the greatest, in my mind THE greates, series! MAGICIAN by Raymond E. Feist!!!!!! and Silverthorn and A Darkness At Sethanon! even if they arent made into movies i STRONGLY recommend these books

STRONGLY RECOMMEND (warning addictive reading!! you may die of starvation in your bed reading, too lazy to eat. You are warned)

PS: not to mention the Daughter of the Empire series, thats great too.

LOL......

I'm with you, Chowder!

I would love to see my own book get turned into a film.

As a matter of fact, I'd like all of the movies based on Stephen King's stories, except the ones he wrote and The Shawshank Redemprion, to be remade into proper movies, ones that have a certain quality to them; good, in other words.
