I know all the writers are on a strike, so it might be a great time to read some comics and do borrow some material. Well, better yet, the producers can just use a little of the coin they are trying to squeeze out of the writers and pay for the rights.
The decline of Berserk aside, they really could turn the story up to Shierke's introduction into a great movie. Eclipse, Fake eclipse, the berserk armour and apostle fights would all make great scenes. Just leave out some of the gratuitous nudity and violence. I know some people think the graphic novel is kind of weird for its excessive adult material, but it is an adult comic and it's just all those goatmen orgy scenes.
Monster would be great, too. It practically writes itself. It's cinematic, but maybe the complexity of the plot make it too rigid for adaptation. Plus the explanation for Johan was bound to be a letdown, which it was.
Finally Battle Royale, oh wait...I liked the use of cheap nudity frames in the manga that was very much missing from the movie; I'm supposed to infer sex scenes now? What?
