TTT: Top Ten Books I’d love to see made into movies

These are some books/graphic novels I’d like to see become movies (if done faithfully). I know that sometimes this has disastrous results, but I want they were so good and I would love to see the way some of the scenes translate to the big screen. They are in two basic groups, some are because we deserve to have that movie and others are because the imagery is so great that I want to experience that way.

Because we deserve it:

These girls deserve their own movie. At least one. Okay, maybe a television series down the road instead, but really.

So deserving of her place in the Marvel Cinematic University. If we can EVER get a female-led movie out of them.

I love a good period movie and the setting for this is Jerusalem just after the creation of the State of Israel. There are some big scenes with imagery and landscape that seems like it would be beautiful. It would also be a good book to use to showcase a bit of the conflict between the Israeli’s and Palestinians and the way that their conflicts have evolved since the beginning. It’s so much better than a Romeo and Juliet story but you’ll be tempted to think of it that way.

This would just be a great movie for a much wider audience than will read this book. It’s such a relevant topic in the US (and much more places but this is where it takes place).

Oh, the imagery:

I mean, just imagine what New Beijing and Artemisia will look like up there.

This would be so much fun on the screen! Victorian period movies are so stunning, but add in the dirigible that is their school and I just need it in my life. I loved this series and think it would just be so much fun.

It just needs to happen and Disney or Dreamworks can do it. They can do it now. Please.

The art is fantastic and we’re still in the middle of the main story line but I think it would be amazing on screen, big or small. It has a very grandiose Game of Thrones kind of feel to it but with a matriarchal society instead and I just love that.

Images of the Chinese afterlife? Yes, please!

No way I’m the only one that wants to see Blackcliff brought to life. Oh, and I want to know who would be cast as the Commandant. She’s so magnificent in an Evil Queen or Cersei sort of way.
