Hmm, I think American Gods might translate well onto screen. I hadn't heard of that yet The Count Send a noteboard - 21/04/2011 06:31:21 PM
I know this thread is about a WOT series, but I'm more interested in an American Gods series.

I'm not a huge fan of American Gods. I love the concept and plot of it, but something with the way Gaiman structures his novels and characterizes makes his books hard for me to get through. However, I love all the film adaptations of his work, and I think the pacing and plot of American Gods would be absolutely perfect for a mini-series. A new adventure along the road trip in every episodes, and lots of very colorful characters. Some dark humor.

I'd definitely watch it.

As for WOT, I like the books and don't see any possible way that they could be translated into film with any sort of justice.

The Sopranos and Lost were hugely successful, and they were both six seasons long. Ghavrel - 19/04/2011 06:13:06 PM 933 Views
The X-Files went nine seasons. But it was cheap to make. Werthead - 20/04/2011 01:51:23 AM 1062 Views

This could still work with a 13 episode season Bryce - 19/04/2011 07:04:06 AM 1230 Views
Based on GoT, I'm not too sure about that. Werthead - 19/04/2011 01:43:36 PM 907 Views

Seems so, sorry it's in the wrong place. *NM* MalkierKnight - 22/04/2011 12:06:15 AM 496 Views
I left it here because it brings up several different book series. *NM* Rebekah - 16/05/2011 06:06:43 PM 433 Views
