I've often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

The Mars trilogy by KSR. I think 3 8 hour long episode seasons could work

I first read that as three 8-hour long episodes. Like, damn, the books are great but I'm not sitting for that long--oh-- 3 seasons each with 8 hour-long episodes... that makes sense lol

And we were teased about it on the SciFi channel a bunch of years ago before they instituted cost savings measures.

As long as they edit it a bit. IMO, it felt like Robinson was paid by the word and padded the crap out of the novels.

Was going to say the same. They would make an amazing series of series.
