| Since Game of Thrones has finished (with a disappointing conclusion) there isn't really anything that can fill the shoes that the show has left behind. However, I think LotGH is the next best thing that can be adapt into. This show has the combination of space battles of Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica, with the political intrigue of Dune and Game of Thrones. Because political dramas are usually popular among TV viewers, this show would gain quite a bit of interest. I also believe that the use and quality of CGI will be much better than what The New Thesis was able to use, and I think that a western style adaptation - made in the US (the characters in the anime were western/European-looking) with an English cast would be better than having a Japanese live-action adaptation And unlike GoT, the source material (the novels) and the OVA/gaiden series are already finished, so they don't have to make up new stuff to finish off and ruin the show. So do you think LotGH should get a live-action adaptation? |

| By Doom, do you mean Dune? |
| Last three seasons of GoT were utter garbage. If they even so as touch LOGH, we riot. |

Season 8 was atrocious at the writing level and I've never seen a television show of its caliber ever fall so hard so fast, but that isn't HBO's fault. It would be HBO's fault if they canceled the series, limited the number of seasons, or cut the budget (as they did to some series in the mid-2000s when they failed to perform ratings wise like the heavy hitters), but they did the opposite. They offered the show runners and writers anything they needed. They wanted more seasons and actively lobbied for this so everything wouldn't be condensed into a shallow cliff notes condensed near parody of itself, which the show became. It was the show runner team that spurned this and flaunted their exclusive contractual rights to end the show early. HBO wanted at least ten seasons with more episodes in them and would probably have supported it going even longer than that. HBO had nothing to do with it and its hands were tied. I'm saying this all because in the past I'd be the first to crucify HBO for canceling shows prematurely out of short-sighted greed and ignorance. What's fair is fair though and in this case, the blame cannot be placed on them. |

This actually changed my mind on the topic, but even if they do end up making a near perfect addaptation of logh people will hate on it in the same way they hated Die Neue These. |

| A live-action adaptation is completely unnecessary. If we want more people to watch the show they should dub the OVA series.(even if some sound effects would be different due to some not able to be found) |
