| Question for you movie gurus I've heard a few rumors here and there that they plan on making a movie out of the Amber series by Roger Zelazny. Can ?any of you hard core sci-fi/movie buffs confirm this? Thanks in advance for any info on this.

| I would kind of doubt that...the 1st five all pretty much continue the same story(who cares about the Merlin part of amber chronicles? hah.)...If they do try to cram it all into 1h50minutes or so it'll just be sword fighting and fancy special effects. Break it up and tell the entire story over a few movies like LoTR is doing, it might turn out good. But i'm betting they wouldn't have the budget to do it right. =) If they do do it it won't be worth watching...kind of reminescent of Highlander 2. MAKE AN EARTHSEA MOVIE YOU HOLLYWOOD BASTARDS p.s. a tv miniseries...well, it won't have the money to pay for the big fancy things, but 4 hours is much better than 2 to work with. =) Left Hand of Darkness, woot!

| While I consider Dark Horizons the best site for rumors and updates on movies in production, Corona coming attractions is a great site that talks about everything being talked about including movies that are stuck in development hell or just a far fetched possibility. Check it out. Corona Coming Attractions
