The adaptation required Rogers to pull out pieces of action from a largely theoretical work. "Isaac Asimov is a real intellectual, so chapters would start with 'That was a thrilling escape from the space pirates, wasn't it? Yes, it was. Now about economics.' As a writer, I need the space pirates. I just can't have the economics discussion here. So there was a lot of trying to stay in the spirit of Asimov [while] at the same time expanding the text."
Sounds a bit like adapting Tolkien
I have always wanted to see a film series version of 'MACROSS'
As soon as I win the lottery I am buying the movie rights to this! I know this story inside and out and I am dying to adapt this to the big screen. If Macross is ever made, it should be made by a real fan of the series who will treat it and the characters with utmost respect.
In my opinion, this series has absolutely the best Big Screen/Box Office potential of all the other things listed in this thread.
Fans have been talking for some time about a future Dragonlance movie/television series as well as other series of my works. While I know that TSR/Wizards of the Coast is actively pursuing media licenses for Dragonlance, I do not at this time know anything specific about any actual plans to produce a film. Any film or television projects concerning our works will be updated in the newsletter ... please look there for the latest.
