Book Blogger Hop: 31 August - 6 September 2012

Book Blogger Hop With a busy weekend, I didn't get around to the Book Blogger Hop until today. This week's question is:

What is the one book or series you are dying to see turned into a movie or tv series?

Like many of the fans of Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern, I'd love to see it made into a TV series or a series of movies. Unfortunately, the movie rights have been held by Canadian production house named Copperheart Entertainment since 2006. In April 2012, the science fiction community was all a-twitter at the announcement that David Hayter had been hired to write the script for Dragonflight and that production was to start in early 2012. Although IMDb lists the movie as "in production", apparently there's no director and no cast. In other words, it's only an idea, not a reality. 'Tis a shame. With the success of Game of Thrones on HBO, I have to imagine that a Pern movie or series would draw a decent audience.

Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jennifer at Crazy for Books.
