The 8 Sci-Fi and Fantasy Books Which Most Desperately Need Movies

It's been a slow and very distracting Monday, so, courtesy of FARK, I present the list (complete with explanations) of the 8 sci-fi and fantasy books which most desperately need to be made into movies. In addition to the lovingly arranged summaries of each book ("An albino emperor and last descendant of an ancient dynasty with a sentient, evil sword that gains power with each being it kills, Elric is the ultimate anti-hero and a complete badass"), take a moment to appreciate the fact that this list was posted on a website called ToplessRobot.com- a site dedicated (in its own words) to "Nerd news, humor and self-loathing."

There really do need to be more sci-fi movies. The problem that I would run into as a movie producer is that everyone's imagination is different, and therefore their interpretation of how characters, places, etc. are depicted in these books will probably vary quite considerably. The success with comic books is that they have had pictures accompanying their stories throughout their existence, so it's easier to visually recreate them on screen. Regardless an strong attempt should be made.
