Re:Gene Wolfe (Score 1)

Well, I'm glad someone else posted this, so I didn't have to make the suggestion. I seriously doubt we'll ever see a faithful adaptation of these books. They're just too densely layered. And as other posters have already pointed out, Hollywood loves to dumb things down for the single-celled moviegoer who's not interested in any of the references and nuances with which Wolfe filled his masterwork. Plus, I think a protagonist whose upbringing was as a torturer/executioner and who, in the course of the story partakes in more than one act of cannibalism and yet is often portrayed as a (reluctant) messianic figure, is the sort of character that is likely to make most movie execs run screaming when asked if they'd be interested in green-lighting the project. Still, I can dream. Perhaps a radio series, or anime...
