But they still haven’t made a film out of The Wheel of Time.

If there's going to be another TV series done from epic fantasy, I'd rather see an adaptation of Joe Abercrombie's "First Law" series. Unlike either Robert Jordan or George RR Martin, Abercrombie knows how to finish a story and he does it in very effective fashion. Between beginning and end he packs a lot of dark humor, surprising twists and engaging characters, along with the requisite violence and magical plot devices. I'd only ask that they don't let the show runners from "Game of Thrones" anywhere near it.

Sony picked up the rights to WoT in the last week so there might be some hope it will get off the ground now. I wonder how they will make it, considering some of the fantastic elements in the first book, much less the entire series. (On read-through #8)
