Oct. 5th, 2011 06:32 pmWe watched the first two hours of Terra Nova the other night; it was OK, but it reminded BH of his desire to see Julian May's Pleistocene Exile books made into films or a big miniseries or something. To which I used to respond "the cost, you fool! the cost!" but now I just think, why not, if HBO can make ASOIAF? Let's have time travel with lots of plot and extra aliens! How hard could it be?
So I have this weird idea that Spooks would make a really great crossover with ASOIAF. I'm not entirely sure why; maybe just the thought of Harry having to deal with the whole mess. Plus, high mortality rates. It's just a matter of deciding which version of the Spooks cast you'd want to inflict that on.
The other canon which would make an excellent ASOIAF crossover is of course the Vorkosigan books. Because Ned Stark and Aral Vorkosigan weren't exactly separated at birth, but there are certainly some structural similarities there.
ETA: the tablet is still in its box, but I think I'm keeping it. Even if it is mostly useless for work.
