| Re: WoT Film - good idea/bad idea? LoL, WoT as a movie. No the only thing that would work is WoT as a soap opera. Think about it. What other medium revels in such petty drama as the braid pulling, skirt smoothing, lace admiring, trivial bickering of Wot? |

| Re: WoT Film - good idea/bad idea? I've been a firm disbeliever in the possibility of this ever being made into a single movie, but I read a script that is (while incomplete) seems to be pretty good. Am I allowed to post the link here? P.s. Sorry to bring back such an old thread. |

| Re: WoT Film - good idea/bad idea? With all that braid pullying the female actors would need some pretty hefty wigs. ![]() I think it has the potential to be even more boring than the books... and that would take some doing for me. So saying because of that I'm sure they'll do it eventually. The endless sequal potential will be just too appealing for Hollywood. |

![]() I know what you mean, though. The sequel potential of a book series like this in movie form would be ever-so-tempting for Hollywood, I would think. Not necessarily a good idea, though. | |

| Re: WoT Film - good idea/bad idea? It depends on who would do the movie. If they had the cash to make it (special effects and actors). Also, don't you think it would make WoT seem faster? Eh...I dont know, I think it'd be kinda cool to see it on the big screen. |

| Re: WoT Film - good idea/bad idea? I would never suggest making a film out of the Dragon Reborn series or Conan series. Whenever books are made into movies a lot of the content is cut + when one is reading a book, they use their mind to visualize the situation and characters. In a film, they would ruin anyone's individual perception of the books. A book-made-movie would put a stain on the good series. ![]() + with all the drama going on in the towers (not action), the movie would itself be boring. |

. The Tower stuff wouldn't be boring, just sophisticated, and I think that there is pleanty of action going on in the WoT story besides the Tower stuff. It would even out nicely.Quote:
I think that the only way that they could realistically translate this, however, would be to make the movies out of the first three, although 4&5 are my favorites... Unless they made 7&8 into one movie and.... eh... this is tougher than I thought! ![]() Anyway, I think that no matter what this should wait until the final book is released and has been for several years. | ||
