Let me know your thoughts on this idea!

Sure, but Mistborn needs an adaption way more, in my opinion. But any Sanderson film/series would be awesome!

A Skyward movie would be really fun! Mistborn would be an excellent TV series as would the Stormlight archive. Personally I would love a movie for The Reckoners. I think it's a really good book series for getting people into Brandon Sanderson. :)

I would be worried about the capabilities of live-action in regard to potential for Mistborn or Stormlight, and I believe they would be better suited to animation. Skyward could be fun as a live-action but I also think it would work better as animation unless it gets a AAA budget

Yeah, animation for sure. Live action would do it dirty.

I would love it if Naughty Dog or Guerilla made a game out of Mistborn.

I would love to have a series for sure !

I agree! I absolutely need a Mistborn adaptation!

I think it would be the easiest of his works to adapt. I'd rather see Mistborn or Stormlight but those would be monsters to adapt properly.

I think Skyward would work best as a streaming service Series from HBO MAX. It would be easier to adapt. Brandon has mentioned that the Mistborn movie is difficult because of how the magic works and adapting it is a little more difficult. I think Skyward would be more visually appealing. Just after reading the first few chapters of Skyward, I mentioned it needed to be a series.

I would love to see any of his books adapted to the screen if done right, but Skyward would be especially awesome, I love the series!! I think it would be easier to adapt than his fantasies, though they would all have great screen action and epically cinematic moments. There would just be a lot more work involved to give his biggest series the filming they deserve, with their length and wonderful complexity.
But I think Skyward would be a great film as much as simpler, with lots of fun and epic parts, and one that I would defiintely encourage my whole family to watch

All Brandon sanderson's books would be amazing as movies or tv series! Especially, mistborn and the stormlight archive.
