i was just wondering .

how come the books that are so well-written and they have great plots, details, storyline and everything but they dont get turned into movies ?

books that are more nonsense and typical are the ones that get into movies ?

how does it work ? what qualities does a book need to get turned into movies ?



Answer
Of course no one but a producer, writer, or film studio, or someone in the film making business can give you concrete answers, but we can try to make sense of it.

No book can be made into a movie unless the author agrees to it, and there are some authors that don't want their books made into movies, and that's their choice.

I think entertainment value comes into play. If a producer thinks a book will sell well in movie form then they might extend an offer to make it into a movie.

This is my guess.

Whats books do you want turned into movies or TV shows?

I'm bored and never see this question on Yahoo! Answers so...

Books I want to be movies or a TV show are...
The Warrior Cats series
The Skinjackers Trilogy
The Gone series
Sammy Keyes
Unwind
The Last survivers series
The Darkest Powers series

There is more to the list but this all I can think of at the moment
so what books do you want to be turned into movies or TV shows?



Answer
I might want a movie adaption for Warrior Cats by Erin Hunter, but they might mess it up really, really badly- you know, make the Warriors have stupid voices, cut out a bunch of key parts and characters, and make it into a little kid's movie!

And although there's been a Canadian TV adaption for Silverwing by Kenneth Oppel, I think if they did a movie for each book, that'd be sooo amazing.
(Since in the TV adaption, the bats were rainbow colors and they had human hair on their heads 0_O Darn Canadians!)

Most of all, I'd love to see "The Named" by Clare Bell turned into a movie (one for each book)! They could make it look great with all that CGI they have nowadays! Of course that'd be five movies, but still...at least make two movies! PLEASEEEEEE!

Pah, but that will never happen :'(
Because most directers don't know where the money is, and because they spend all their time making gross movies with actors that just CAN'T go on five minutes without taking their clothes off! >:(

It'd even be nice if Promise of the Wolves by Dorothy Hearst was a movie. Again, CGI can do wonders.

If they made four darned movies for each book in the Twilight saga, they can make some of these! But they never do!
And if they made like 13 different versions and parts for those Jason X movies, you think they could start looking at the popular book series out there and think, "Hmmm, that'd make a good movie!"

I hope you enjoyed my rant! XD
