So this is also gonna sound like a weird request but can you recommend books based on that genre that don’t have a film adaption or also unlikely to get one because I want to imagine the world on my own, but I also really love films so I really want to get into books
Blade Runner films are what really made me want to get some recommendations, mainly because I’ve heard of how different Ridley Scott made it to the novel while also maintains high praise from fans of the book, and films like Dune which were said to be “unadaptable” having some great films which make me really wanna check out others
Ok I also want to add I also don’t mind recommendations for books that have film adaptions that aren’t accurate to the source material, for example books like “The running man” I’ve really wanted to read it has a gritty dystopia vibe and the plot is right up my alley but I heard the film is so different in tone, subplots, characters etc and doesn’t delve as deep as the books in the themes portrayed
So if they have adaptions that aren’t that good (general public opinion) then I don’t mind those but otherwise please give me loads
Also: I really like as you could tell lore heavy, worldbuilding heavy and philosophical films and I really like films/books with loads of themes and characters you can just deconstruct cause it makes great talking point
