In Reply to: Film Adaptations Which You'd Love To Make posted by Hal Phillips on March 16, 2002 at 15:25:12:
: I'm stealing this idea from Vincent, who answered the question in my thread about scenes you wish you'd made.
: What non-film source material would you love to adapt into a kickass film?
: I'd love to do a film version of Frank Zappa's JOE'S GARAGE, using the album as the literal soundtrack, i.e. the film would be almost like a really long music video. That'd be a logistical nightmare, but it seems like it's just waiting to happen, and I have so many visuals in my head for it.
I always said If I got famous or my foot in the door, I'd make these three adaptations;
-A WALK IN THE WOODS by BILL BRYSON. Very funny book, kinda like PLANES< TRAINS 2. COuld be a good movie.
-FULL THROTTLE- The game is classic but is gradually being forgotten. A movie could be done well of this, at low budget too.
-HOWARD THE DUCK
Not a remake, a reattempt. I feel the material has great potential, but will this one ever be considered?
