I haven't done any of these in a while. Which is because I'm an idiot. Here is another Top Ten Tuesday though. This week the theme is books you'd like to see as movies or TV-shows. In a perfect world where film makers don't ruin the books we love. This meme is as usual hosted by the Broke and the Bookish. Off we go.
Movies
I know there already is one, but I would quite like them
to make a new one. I have nothing against the actors, Martin Freeman is
wonderful, Mos Def is a friggin’ genius, Zooey Deschanel is so cute and Sam
Rockwell made me fall a little bit in love with Zaphod. I’d like to see it
again though, because they change things and they swap it up, it wasn’t as good
as it should have been. Also, it’s a book series, what happened to the rest of
the books?
There is supposed to be a
movie made from this book, and I am really worried. The book is so beautiful
and poetic and it’s so dark. And oh my God Akiva is so brooding and dark. And
the things, and don’t make it all about the love story, it’s about so much
more. So this is the least coherent thing ever. I just want it to be so
amazing. The book is about chimera, creatures with aspects of different
creatures, animals and humans in them, and if they fuck it up I will be
annoyed.
This is a Douglas
Adams-adjacent book. It was written by Terry Jones, based on a game by Douglas
Adams. It is brilliant. It’s about a group of humans who get trapped in a
spaceship based on the Titanic and they’re sailed off into space. It’s
hilarious. It’s so weird, and so slapstick, and it’s so Douglas Adams. It could
be so much fun.
It’s so beautiful and so cool. It’s magnificent. I
love it. And I’m worried it’ll be like the Alice in Wonderland movie, or the
Golden Compass movie and they won’t make it perfect. I want it to be PERFECT!
It’s so hilarious, and so wonderful. The characters
are delightful and I think it could be a really cool action comedy movie. I
think they could make the princes so great and they could make it so funny.
I think that this book could just be a wonderful
movie. I think it could be beautiful and cool, and odd. And that’s like
perfect. Gaah, I want to see the tents and the magic performances. I want to
see Bailey and Widget, and the contortionist girl, whose name I forget. It
would be so amazing.
One of my favourite books. I think I’ll have to reread
it soon. It’s so cool and it would be an interesting movie I think.
It’s futuristic Cinderella. It would be a fucking
awesome movie. Cinder is really cool, and the Prince is wonderful, and it would
open up for more movies, Scarlet, Cress and Winter. It would be good okay?
Good.
TV-shows
It’s bloody long, so it could be like a Game of
Thrones thing. It could be Wheel of Time TV show. Maybe not on HBO, it’s a less
sexy book series, slightly less violent. I think it’d be good though. It is one
of my favourite book series and I want it to be a TV show, and I want it to be
wonderful.
This could be on HBO, it might be too racy even for
HBO. It’s too long for a movie, and there’s too much stuff happening for it to
be a movie, but it could be a cool TV show. The casting would have to be
perfect, but it would be friggin’ awesome.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
There is supposed to be a
movie made from this book, and I am really worried. The book is so beautiful
and poetic and it’s so dark. And oh my God Akiva is so brooding and dark. And
the things, and don’t make it all about the love story, it’s about so much
more. So this is the least coherent thing ever. I just want it to be so
amazing. The book is about chimera, creatures with aspects of different
creatures, animals and humans in them, and if they fuck it up I will be
annoyed.
Starship Titanic by Terry Jones
The Girl who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship ofher own Making by Catherynne M. Valente
The Hero’s Guide to Saving your Kingdom by Christopher
Healy
I think that this book could just be a wonderful
movie. I think it could be beautiful and cool, and odd. And that’s like
perfect. Gaah, I want to see the tents and the magic performances. I want to
see Bailey and Widget, and the contortionist girl, whose name I forget. It
would be so amazing. 
American Gods by Neil Gaiman
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan
This could be on HBO, it might be too racy even for
HBO. It’s too long for a movie, and there’s too much stuff happening for it to
be a movie, but it could be a cool TV show. The casting would have to be
perfect, but it would be friggin’ awesome.
