To see Hier to the Empire
Dark Force Rising
And the Last Command

Made into Movies?

Simple poll to end the day for me as I download the Offical US Army Game

Hell yeah!

I would go see it, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

Umm...maybe this is the way Lucasfilm should go...instead of making these prequel movies, they should be filming the best novels (Timothy Zahn's in particular, including the SoTP/VoTF duology).

I'd give an arm and a leg (not literally) to see that.

I would give not only my left foot, but my left hand to see DE turned into a movie.

I'm not sure...it would be awfully hard to find someone good enough to play Thrawn.

We got Jar-Jar for the Prequels, we might end up with Dicaprio for Thrawn

I'd rather have Dicraprio than Jar-Jar anyday.

My real friend thinks the same of you. :p

HaHa seriously, I don't want to see either one.

Post by **Sea Skimmer** » 2002-07-05 01:55am

I certainly would go to see such a film regardless. But Even if each book was one film, I don't think it would be very good, too much would have to be cut for time.

yes. books don't always translate well into movies

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2002-07-05 07:23am

Yes but lucky with Zhan you know EACXTLY what to cut thanks to his good tecnical writing

Heck I could curn out a 2 hour and 20 min script if somone paid me to that would keep everything intact in the book without loosing anything important and/or funny

What was good about Zahn and fighters was that he used newtonian physics, I mean just because they can simulate atmospheric mode in space doesn't mean they can't do it the other way too when it's prefferable.

Unfortunatly they wouldn't make great movies. Great books, but not movie materiel.

David · Post by **David** » 2002-07-05 07:35pm

With some editing they might.

His Divine Shadow · Post by **His Divine Shadow** » 2002-07-05 07:41pm

Try using the comic versions, they might translate better into movies.

David · Post by **David** » 2002-07-05 08:31pm

Yeah, the comic shots would be like the drawn screenshots that they go by when making a movie.

Damaramu · Post by **Damaramu** » 2002-07-06 05:18am

Who would you guys want to see play Thrawn?

My vote would be for this guy, Everett McGill:

He was the only thing (aside from Katherine Heigl), that kept my interest in Steven Seagal's craptastic Undersiege 2: Dark Territory.

JJP · Post by **JJP** » 2002-07-06 05:55am

Why no option for both testicles and a kidney?

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2002-07-06 08:30am

You can't see the movie without a Kidney

No Kidneys is a baad thing

David · Post by **David** » 2002-07-08 02:12pm

Everett might be good, after red contacts and blue skin of course.

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2002-07-14 03:04pm

I'd thought I'd bump this to the top for the hell of it

Padding his way to 600!
