a old BBC Radio series called "journey into Space" has the same kind of story line.

try looking for a website on it... it might say if it was based on or similar too this book of yours.

I think they already are making a international movie out of this..

Its about a knight fighting in the holy crusade during 1000-1100. I\'ve not read the books yet but I\'ve heard they are excellent.

Are you a Christian project? \'This Present Darkness\' was one of the best Christian/Spiritual novels EVER, but I do agree that to do it justice, it would have to have a R rating, as its a very violent book.

I would also love to see \'The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe\' made into a full on movie series. The TV series was ok, but I think a big budget series would be excellent. Props to C.S. Lewis for the outstading series.

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley..

Anyone see Gattaca? The idea is similar, but not quite the same.

racer- did you click the link in my post above? "Out Of The Silent Planet" and its companions are a profoundly religious trilogy by Lewis...

Really? I would really like to see them.... Are they any good?

Anyway, I would like to see them made right now.  Something in this generation. I\'m only 18, not 35. ;)

Prey by Michael Crichton.  It\'s actually bound to become a movie since all of his stuff usually does, but this one would be very impressive effects wise.  It\'s also pretty scary stuff since humans are on the verge of breaking the threshold of nanotechnology and fully independant AI.

Ignore Ryu...Prey, although a good book (so far) doesn\'t seem like movie material.  Michael Crichton\'s novel before Prey, "Timeline," would make an extremely good movie!  A time travel piece where a group of archeologist go back to the 14th century to save one of their professors.  Lots of action, tiny romance, and a whole boat load of really cool medieval weapons!

You guessed it man. Just read my journal if you need the whole story. As for C.S.Lewis, you got that right! I would love to see his books come to life in movie form. I had heard somewhere that they were already in production but nothing more than whispers. And as for the space trilogy CHIZZY, that is another I would like to see as well.

:eek: "Ignore Ryu" ?  whoa whoa whoa, you couldn\'t ignore me if you tried.  ;)  Besides, Prey would dazzle the audience with special effects but I can\'t say how.  It would give too much of the plot away.

i would love it if someone made Tom Clancy\'s Rainbow Six into a movie. The book starts off slow but once u get past that then its a great book. They were supposed to make one but iv never heard anything about it for about a year. I dont remember the list of actors but they werent too good. hopefully their just thinking it out and not destroying the idea of making the movie.
