- DirectorNikolaj ArcelStarsIdris ElbaMatthew McConaugheyTom TaylorA boy haunted by visions of a dark tower from a parallel reality teams up with the tower's disillusioned guardian to stop an evil warlock known as the Man in Black who plans to use the boy to destroy the tower and open the gates of Hell.
- DirectorStephen SommersStarsAnton YelchinAshley SommersLeonor VarelaIn a California desert town, a short-order cook with clairvoyant abilities encounters a mysterious man with a link to dark, threatening forces.Would work better as a show than it did a movie.
- DirectorChris ColumbusStarsLogan LermanKevin McKiddSteve CooganA teenager discovers he's the descendant of a Greek god and sets out on an adventure to settle an on-going battle between the gods.The movies were hardly the books. How about HBO and Showtime making shows based on books for teens ?
- There's so many books. A movie series would leave out too much to be good.
- DirectorJon HessStarsCorey HaimMichael IronsideChristopher CaryA boy takes in a stray dog, later discovering that it is an ultra-intelligent runaway being stalked by a dangerous creature from the same genetic research lab.The movies sucked and were nothing like the great book I read.
- DirectorBrad SilberlingStarsJim CarreyJude LawMeryl StreepWhen a massive fire kills their parents, three children are delivered to the custody of cousin and stage actor Count Olaf, who is secretly plotting to steal their parents' vast fortune.
- To save his mother from certain death, young Jack Sawyer enters a parallel world known as the Territories in search of a powerful talisman.HBO should just do a mini-series finally. But with a good director.
- DirectorWillard HuyckStarsLea ThompsonJeffrey JonesTim RobbinsA sarcastic humanoid duck is pulled from his homeworld to Earth where he must stop an alien invasion with the help of a nerdy scientist and a struggling female rock singer.A movie is long off, maybe Marvel phase 4. So a Marvel show on HBO, FX or Netflix I think could work.
