5 Books That Need a Second Adaptation Like Eragon
movies — they’re great fun! Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews are a delight, and they’re great movies to watch on a rainy day. That being said, the movies are a world apart from the book series that ends up spanning 10 books, two adult spin-offs, and several novellas and short stories. There’s so much that was missing or misconstrued in the movie that I’d love to see play out on the small screen and nine books worth of plotlines that weren’t even touched.

Still, there’s a reason the book has been a children’s classic for over 20 years and that alone merits a second chance.
The tale of a kid criminal mastermind, his butler, a technologically advanced centaur, and an exceptionally brave elf all supported by a twist on the classic “there’s fairies living among us” that works so well in the books was butchered so, so badly. As any fan of the series will tell you, it’s a great and action-packed tale that does deserve to reach a wider audience and could work very well as a film or movie, so I’ll be setting my clocks for a Disney+ remake in 10 years.
