MasterMoody, it would be great huh. She really kicks butt and in the last book there's a ton of sex scenes. or near sex scenes, so it'd have to be a very huge rated R lol.

None, because hollywood would screw it up like they've done so many times. Just look at my comic books movies.

There have been plans to make Ender's Game into a movie for a long time.  I think if you look on IMDB you can find out where they are with it.  I read somewhere they're still fighting about the script and OSC has had to start over from scratch.

I just finished a couple of great books by John Scalzi -- Old Man's War and Ghost Brigades -- that would make a good sci-fi film franchise, too.

I'm with you there. Anita Blake rocks. I'm getting into Merry Gentry too. Both could be great movies if done right, as in leave in the good stuff lol.

The Dark Hunter series and Carpathian series would be excellent as movies too.

GREAT story!  They've done a decent job on *most* of the movies made from King's writings, and I can see this one being done well. 
 
Any of John Sandford's "Prey" series would also make a great movie.  (I have a crush on Lucas Davenport)
