Showing Original Post only (View all)Novels not made into movies... [View all]
I've always wondered why no one has made a movie based on the great American novel...."A Catcher in the Rye". I think it would make a great film.
I would also like to see a follow-up of "Taxi Driver".... With an aging Travis Buckle.
Do you have any movies that were never made?

That's an amazing movie, on the surface all popcorn over-the-top sci-fi, underneath sly satire.
