Re: OT- Honour Harrington movie
Hmmm...ya think Uma Therman might do a good Honor?
I personally don't have enough faith in today's producers to get it "quite right". In addition, the visuals of a Honorverse battle looks a little like Farscape. It's really not too exciting unless you can empathise with the crew and really feel the tech.
Plus...there is an intimidating amount of non-visual description in the books, and I just know some guy in script writing is going to want to make some of it visible, if only to boost ratings beyond the DW buffs. On the other hand, the series DW did with Steve White, including Shiva Option, is PERFECT for movies. Plus, there's baby eating. The critics will eat it up, or suffer Arachnid domination.
