[not quite S-F but...]
If there is one series I would like to see translated to celluloid,
it is Zelazny's Amber series. It would have to be directed by someone
who has a good feeling for motivation & character, AND a good sense of
epic fantasy (no easy task). Art direction would need to be given to
someone with a GREAT imagination! [unfortunately, it'll never happen.
After what Hollywood did to Damnation Alley, Zelazny will never sell
movie rights again]. This could even be a made-for-TV-epic...
As for the cast, that takes some thought...it's been a while since
I read the books, so I don't remember the minor characters too well.
...but here goes...
Corwin . . . Mel Gibson
Random . . . Sting
Oberon . . . Marlon Brando (if you could get him) or Sean Connery?
Eric . . . . Malcolm McDowell
Dworkin . . Burgess Merideth
