      "Classic sci-fi is thinky, intricate, idiosyncratic, and sprawling in a way that so far has largely resisted successful big-screen treatment..." What sf story or series would you like to see on the big screen?https://twitter.com/Isegoria/status/1451898211262611464 …

      If someone in America was ever obsessed with a story as a 12-year-old, it’s probably being made into a movie or TV show right now http://dlvr.it/SB8XJN

      Someone should finally make a Starship Troopers movie.

      I would love a Starship trooper with all the Heinlein political philosophy stuff in. If just for the terrible takes it would generate.

      I'd like the original draft of Heinlein's Space Cadet, before the publisher made him change the ending.

          Found a reference to it https://www.tor.com/2010/08/30/annapolis-in-space-robert-a-heinleins-space-cadet/ … Then checked my copy of the biography. Looks like it the original intended ending may not have ever been written. If anything of it survives, though, it'll be in the archives.

          Patterson's bio suggests Heinlein himself came to the conclusion that it was unworkable, for much the reasons given to Matt Dodson in the published version. (Never mind being publishable in a late 40s juvenile edited by Alice Dalgliesh.)pic.twitter.com/KmBdaCCYh5
