just a little note

I have only recently come across this forum for opinion so forgive me if
this has been said before.

Id just like to show some appreciation to Mr Feist as one of the best
fantasy writers ever.

I first came across Magician when I was 13 years old and I just turned 28
and again just finished reading it and I still have the original copy that I
came across all that time ago.

I have purchased every book he has ever written and also have first edition
copies of every one that don't get touched I think maybe we should start a
petition to get them made into films although I think you would lose most of
it in a film like they did with lord of the rings.

I'd like to ask Mr Feist if he has ever thought about turning them into
films and if so who would he like to see play the main roles????





must have more midkemia

I don't get to turn them into films, as I am not a major studio or
independently wealthy producer. If a major studio wants to option them
for film, I'm certainly going to listen.

As for the faithful adaptation part, it's always a hot button issue
with fans. While Peter Jackson tweaked Lord of the Rings, they were
still great films. There's a reason Return of the King won the best
film Oscar. I don't know about you, but I felt no remorse that he
cut Tom Bombadill from the story.

As for who would play in the various roles, that has come around a
number of times since 1982 when the book was first published; a lot of
the actors I imagined back in the day are now two old or deceased.
And, truth to tell, if it was turned into film, I'd not care who was
cast just as long as they were good in the roles.
