1. Gallagher Girls: I love this series and I want it to be a TV show that airs on USA network who yes probably wouldn't pick this show up but I think that they would remain pretty faithful to the books and the seasons on that network tend to 14 to 16 episodes long only rather than 22 which I think would be good for this series in the long run with there being less filler episode needing to be made.
2. Heist Society: I love this series and I would really love if it was a TV show of USA network but kind of doubt that is where it would air if it was ever made but their weirdly the only ones I trust to not entirely change the series and I like that their season are shorter and they already air my other favorite con-artist series White Collar so I think it's a good fit.
3. Impulse: This is one of my favorite books of all time and I have always loved the idea of this book being made into an indie film and I really wished that it would happen someday.
4. Cinder: I really love this book and I would love to see it brought to life because it sound like it would be great visually and I would love to see a western made movie with an all Asian cast which would be require for this movie.
5. The Battle of the Labyrinth: This is my favorite book of the Percy Jackson series and I would love to see it brought to the big screen although I doubt that it will ever happen and even if it does it will probably suck but in a perfect world it would follow the books the actors would be good and the characters would have their book personalities.
6. Reading in the Dark: This is one of my favorite books but not to many people seem to have read this book which means that it becoming a film isn't likely but it also means that if it's ever adapted for a film it will because the filmmakers loved the book not to make a quick buck which is the upside for not being well known. This story is one that has a lot of tension in it and there are many moments in the book where there are just moments where characters exchanges looks which communicate everything but a word is never spoken between them which means that the acting in this film would be amazing. I really just want this made into a film so I could see amazing acting because I love really good acting more than almost anything and I love that there would be so many scenes in this film that would require it so I would love to watch ever look that is exchange and see how much the actors could convey with just their eyes.
7. Wolves of Mercy Falls series: I love this series a lot and there are so many moments that I feel I need to be brought to life especially since there are some scenes that I can visualize so well. I would love to have this series brought to life because I feel that the acting in the films would fantastic because I feel that it would need to be because the characters have a lot of internal conflict which means that there needs to be good and subtle acting for that to come across, which make me very happy because I there are few things I love as much as great acting. But I also don't want this to be made into a movie because I feel like the movie would never be good enough to match the one in my head and no one would bother to care about the acting because they see the series as just a way to make money and it would taint the series for me so a big part of me also doesn't this series brought to life as well.
8. Heroes of Olympus series: I really love this series and I would love to see it brought to life and I would see what all the characters look like and all the monsters. I think that this movie series would require good young actors which is one of my favorite things so I would love to see that and I also think that all the action adventure stuff would draw in a large audience so it would be good for whatever studio made it as well. Also I would just love to be able to talk to my sisters who don't read about this series because I'm sure that they would love it and I would love to have someone to talk to it about but I'm almost 100 % sure this series will never be made into a movie series.
9. The Darkest Powers series: I just really love this series and I feel like it isn't well known enough so I feel like movies being made would give the series recognition that it deserves and it would be cool to see some of those powers in action.
10. The Looking Glass Wars: I think that this series would be great if made into movies because it's world is described very vividly and I would love to see that brought to life. I also love how well thought out the main characters are and I would love to have the chance to see how they look and see how they interact with each other. Also since the story covers many characters stories it does actually lends itself really well to film because films often show main characters storylines rather than being stuck in one characters point of view.
Cinder is very popular on this weeks top ten. Although I doubt if it was made into a live action movie, it would have an all Asian cast. Look how Dragonball and Avatar: The Last Airbender movie turn out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting, I know that it's probably an unrealistic hope to have an Asian cast but I think it's also worth noting that the movies Dragonball and Avatar: The Last Airbender are regarded as terrible movies overall so maybe they could learn something from those failures although I doubt it.
DeleteActually I think they are making the rest of the PJO movies? With the whole changing of the prophecy to "the first demigod of the big three that will reach 20 years" so I think they might as well do it. But it won't be a very good adaptation, even though I will never say no to more Logan Lerman :p
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, I do agree that I think they plan to make the rest of the books into movies but considering how bad the movies are I think it's possible that the studio won't fund the movies and the actors may be way too old by the time they get made since they aren't even in pre-production for The Titan's Curse yet. I'm a big fan of Logan Lerman as well and he's one of the few things I enjoy about the movies.
DeleteCinder would be a great movie as would The Heist society. I love the Percy Jackson books but I'm not sure about the movie. I didn't like the first movie, hopefully the second one is better. Great list though, I would love to see so many of these picks on the big screen.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, glad to hear you share my love for Cinder and Heist Society. I agree that the Percy Jackson movies aren't really any good but in a perfect world I would love to see a good movie version of The Battle of Labyrinth.
DeleteThanks for stopping by my top ten! Your list is really great.
ReplyDeleteThe only one I've read is Cinder. I think it would be awesome. Thanks for stopping by my top ten earlier!

I don't think I've read any of these, but I love fairytale retellings, so I'd be up to watching Cinder on screen :D
ReplyDeleteI limited myself to one Ally Carter series, but I agree they would both be great. I also love the idea of something based off of the Wolves of Mercy Falls series. Thanks for visiting my TTT.
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting, I couldn't limit myself to just one Ally Carter series since I love them pretty much equally. Glad to hear you love the Wolves of Mercy Falls series as well.
