darkweaver movie?

[charles]

i was just thinking that having 1 series and 1/3 of anover written i would think that might be possabilties for a film series!


(or we could just gahter every one in this forum and do a semi-amueteur version, i baggsy calvyn!)

[blinky]

That would be pretty funky...but there's always some level of dissapointment in fantasy films based on books. Everyone has their own idea of what things look like etc. so films have a tendancy to ruin your imagines to a certain extent...i baggsy Steady tho she'd have to be one short mare!

[charles]

well i think the mane prob with book to films is that the authors dont take an active part in the film they just pop in once ina while to see how its going, if the author actualy directed or co-directed the film then it would be a lot better

[j. d. worthington]

Writers are usually not involved, frequently they aren't even allowed near the things; once they're paid for the film rights, they're usually cut out of the loop completely, and that's where the problem comes in. There are exceptions, but this is still, in the main, the filmmakers' preference.

[charles]

yeah filmakers just wanna get the rights, make the film, and pocket the cash. if the authors played a part in the film making we would have some real good films,

[danny]

It would be good. I baggsy Bek!

Ah! A man who likes an heroic death scene - nice touch.

I want to be Jenna!...Or Derra...They are some amazingly strong women...Ooor maybe I could be the Demon in Trail, that would be fun! Although I don't think I'm quite big enough or bear-like enough to pull that off!

What, you don't see yourself as an Eloise, Nicola?

[HoopyFrood]

Haha no, I was thinking that, but I don't think I could pull of the devastatingly beautiful, dark haired, scantily-clad...um, beauty (sorry, couldn't think of another word to finish that (it is 11 in the morning, and I'm a student...the two don't mix!)).
Besides, Jenna has a bigger role, heh.

Mark have you ever thought about trying to make a movie of the darkweaver series or did it never occur to you?

[Joel007]

Its eventually suggested about most books. Although the cost of a film is immense and nearly all films are outclassed by the corresponding books.

[charles]

well good to see my thread finaly taking off, i geus youre gonna waight till yore books make you a billionare and then look th the movies!

by the time mark gets the chance to start on his first film he will have finished the imperial series and earned at least his first million
