Saw X
There have been TEN Saw movies? Damn.
9, they skipped Saw 9 because it could cause bugs and other errors.
slow clap
NOOOOO!!! 😭😭😭😭
Let’s start of list of great authors/projects that have never had a single movie.
I’ll start. Poul Anderson. He created Dominic Flandry, a smooth, cynical playboy diplomat who, as an Agent of the Terran Empire, fights to keep the decadent Emperor in power for a few more years. Another great character is Nicolas van Rijn. Imagine if Harry Mudd was a little fatter and a whole lot smarter. He’s head of a galactic trading company who outwits various aliens and humans in the name of sweet cash money. Anderson also created dozens of alien races and imagined the worlds they lived on.
Pratchett’s Discworld deserves the Marvel treatment. If I had a few billion, I’d be all in.
Reading selected novels for the 3rd pass. I get that much wouldn’t translate to screen, but plenty enough would. We have an abundance of genius in Hollywood to pull this off. Take LOTR and Harry Potter for fantasy examples.
Have you tried China Mieville yet?
‘UnLunDun’ is set in a mirror universe where the plucky sidekick finds herself the unhappy heroine of the story.
‘The Scar’ is pretty dark, set in a future where magic and technology collide.
I don’t know if I need Mudd++ to be honest. I found him to be hardly bearable, in every representation.
“Trader To the Stars.”
Three stories where van Rijn shows his stuff. Like I said, he’s much smarter than Mudd, and a lot more fun.

Now that is a leading indicator of a recession if I’ve ever seen one. Wow.

If necessary, Sony’s going to start doing small budget artistic Spider-Man films just to keep the rights of it.
