What book series would you like to see made into a movie trilogy or a show with multiple seasons?
I've often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

The Witcher but they actually follow the source material.
I have only played The Witcher 3 and its DLCs and watched The Netflix show up until S02, so far I like it (especially the game).
I'm slowly introducing in the books/reading field, and just started with classics like Dracula (so far liking it) are the books of The Witcher stand on their own as a good entry point for my "current phase"?
I also had only played the witcher III when I started the books. The games are all set after the events of the witcher saga (books), and are honestly just really really good fan fiction based on the characters (like, really the best fan fiction you could think of), so you can feel free to just read the books.
If you’re not a big reader (if I understand the note about dracula correctly) the witcher audio books are really well done, and the stories lend themselves very well to being listened to.
Finally, I could write a treatise on the failures of the netflix show, but it would all be old news—about 10% of the show is accurate to the stories told in the text (and the text is so much better), the rest is a bunch of made-up nonsense that serves nothing other than to muddy the narrative.
In short, yes, read the books (also why do people need to ask advice about reading books these days. just read books).
Thank you for the explanation! If they are a prequel of The Witcher III then that'll make it better for me!

About this, well, there is a reason why book communities exist right? I am not asking for validation in this matter but definitely like to hear all opinions and personal experience before setting off on this kind of time consuming activity.
I will only say this: reading a book takes no more time than it does to read a bunch of bullshit on the internet. Why would one need to consult with people prior to opening a book and reading 5, 10 or, 500 pages? I would argue that opening a book and reading it first is better than asking for peoples’ opinion and permission prior to reading anything.
To paraphrase Kamina: “Don’t believe in the text, believe in the text that believes in you!”
yes
