But I won’t do that!

Aww, who am I kidding. unzips

I love Zelazny, and while these are not movies, there are adaptations of his books in the works… sort of… maybe.

A Chronicles of Amber series is apparently under development headed up by Stephen Colbert, though I’ve seen no more recent news than this. Also, George R.R. Martin has written about producing a series adaptation of Roadmarks. Again, this is the most recent news I’ve heard about this effort.

Both of these are older articles ('23 and '21 respectively) and I can’t say for sure that the efforts continue, but it does show that people with money, influence, and a love of the material have been trying to make these things happen.

Greedy corporations have captured many regulatory bodies around the world. In the USA in particular, virtually all political decisions are made in support of corporate profits. In essence, we are heading the wrong direction at this point. In order to achieve the goal in this meme, we would need to somehow overcome those corporate influences and completely reverse the course we are on now. This would take decades at best and more than a few of them.

Sadly, the clock is running out on us and I very much doubt we have enough time remaining. Climate change and pollution levels are nearing tipping points will start us on a downhill race towards ecological disaster that will likely wipe out much of humanity. I give us maybe 20 years before the struggle for survival starts to overwhelm any other human motivations. If or when we come out the other side of that crisis, then perhaps the cultures that rise out of the chaos will be wiser than we are now.
