the westing game is already a movie .. in fact i saw the movie before i read the book ..our church had a game night and we stoped the movie before they told who did it. and we had to guess ... no one got it right except my dad and he wasnt allowed to play.
Really...I want to see it!
Ugh....it's not very good. Bleh.....
Mara, Daughter of the Nile would make a great movie!
I agree!
I loved that book - I'd definitely watch it if they made it into a movie.

That is a really good book! I saw one movie version, but it was so short that it cut out almost everything, it felt like. One that actually covered the whole book, instead of cutting out so much, would definitely be good!

Thanks for the response
. Yeah...that's what I was thinking. They usually need to cut it out to fit two hours...but if they found a
really good actress and had it either prolonged or divided into different movies....it would probably be really good. I think if they stayed true to the story..it would be a wonderful movie.

Hey, when I find another "Jane Eyre" fan, you won't be able to stop me from posting if you wanted to!
I think that a format like the 6-episode
Pride and Prejudice could be used for this book too - you would just need somebody with the money and interest to actually make it work and make it good.
When you cut out half of the family connections and lots of interesting moments in a book to movie thing, don't be surprised when people don't like it.

I agree with you, Epic. It would be great for them to make the Door Within series. Just as long as it's good, and that I get to play Gwenne or Antoinette!
And....Walden Media is making the City of Ember series!

"The Left Behind the Kids" series definitely should be made into movies!

It would be awesome if Walden or Pixar did the Redwall books.
