de_dust posted:the culture series isn't gritty or post-apocolyptic enough and would make a boring as gently caress show Theres like a whole book where the protagonist is a terrorist trying to save his people from virtual hell after a liberal intervention from Culture resulted in the genocide of half his species. Foundation is science chums doing math.

de_dust posted:the culture series isn't gritty or post-apocolyptic enough and would make a boring as gently caress show "the culture series isn't gritty" I mean most of the books are way too convoluted to make into film scripts and not terribly cinematic (I'm imagining a 5 minute scene of two spaceships talking to each other), but not gritty? Have you read any of these books? OTOH it's a setting that's way more conducive to some HBO Tits than asimov's foundation

Then the Foundation turns nuclear science into a religion and force the government out of power because nuclear energy is rad as hell.

What's 4 years old, cute to look at, being cared for by a boyman, and will cause millions of people to explode in tears after witnessing her dying breaths? (Hint: Answer is not Setsuko.)

Yeah but the actual stuff he does in the book amounts to 'goes on holiday'. I think Player of Games could work as a TV adaptation because all you'd need to do is stretch out the intrigue in the middle of the book until you are ready for the end-of-season finale.
