    Out of all the EU novels, comics, and games, which stories in these would you like to see be filmed?
    Feel free to discuss which actors, story changes, music, or whatever you really like to see in the movie version of your favourite novel,comic or game.
    I apologise if there is another thread for this but I couldnt find it.

    Honestly, I woudln't like to see any of them filmed. The books are books for that reason: you use your imagination and actually read. And based on the fact that when a movie is made from a book the directer doesn't always stay very true to the book, there'd be a lot of changes.

    Personally I wouldnt like to see any filmed myself but out of curiosity I would like to see what a film version of Dark Empire and Shadows of the Empire would turn out like.

    I third the X-wing series proposal. Not only that, it'd make a sweet TV series. :cool:

    I thought replying "The X Wing Series" would be unique. With the advances made in technology, I'd love to see some of the space battles played out in CGI.

    now I'm going to sound like a loser by saying the X-Wing series :(

    but....


    The X-Wing series

    I'd want to see them all filmed just so we can get to SoA ;)

    Definitely the X-Wing Series... Which actor do you think would make the best Wedge Antilles?

    I also think that Zahn's trilogy would make a great, well, movie trilogy! I think it would be best if Jerry Bruckheimer directed both of those projects.

    Definitely the X-Wing series.

    Casting:

    Wedge: Denis Lawson (D'UH! If he's not interested, though, I think John Cusack could pull it off)

    Wes: George Clooney

    Face Loran: Goran Visnjic

    Kell Tainer: Dan Futterman (the guy who played Vincent on Judging Amy)

    Ton Phanan: Ron Eldard (Juliana Margolies's boyfriend, he was on ER one season, he was also in Ghost Ship)

    Hobbie: Mike Nelson from MST3K. The comic Hobbie looks JUST LIKE Mike!

    I must agree with the masses: the X-wing series.

    Although, I'm not sure a movie would be as practical as a tv series, or even more, a cartoon along the lines of Batman Beyond. Incidently, I hear Stackpole and others have been trying to negociate the latter for years. It's a definate possiblity after E3 comes out. I think KJA has also been pushing for something similar for the YJK series.

    I once thought it would be great for the Zahn Trilogy to be made into films, but there's way too much content for it to ever be drafted into a screenplay, unless you changed it completely, which isn't what I would want.

    Hobbie: Mike Nelson from MST3K. The comic Hobbie looks JUST LIKE Mike!

    Ha, he'd be perfect. :p

    Edit: Yes, three edits. What's it to you? :p

    I respectfully disagree regarding Clooney for Wes. Clooney's too old. And not THAT funny :p

    The X-Wing series, definitely. My second choice would be the Thrawn trilogy.

    First Choice: X-Wing Series

    Second Choice: I, Jedi

    Third Choice: Thrawn Trilogy

    I always though that Hugh Jackman would play a good Corran.

    Lank, if I could think of someone to play Tycho, then I would have listed him. But I can't think of anyone!

    I think we'd have to MAKE Denis Lawson play Wedge. That would also free up John Cusack for Wes... How about Val Kilmer for Tycho?
