A Complete Screen Adaptation

Imagine a complete screen adaptation of Poul Anderson's entire History of Technic Civilization from "The Saturn Game" to "Starfog":

 see "Something Important" and link from it;

there would have to be two actors for Dominic Flandry (see Biosculp And Fashion; Film Versions; Films; Flandry And Leamas);

many characters appear only once so many actors would also appear only once;

dramatization of Hloch's Introductions to The Earth Book Of Stormgate could include brief scenes, e.g., of James Ching in Catawrayanis (see here);

all except the very shortest works would have to be serialized to fit everything in;

such a series could be prolonged indefinitely.

Kaor, Paul!

Wow! Now that's fascinating, a complete filming of the entire Technic Civilization series. Alas, that's hardly likely to ever be done. Pity!
