I think it might work as a sci-fi TV show, but I am not sure the explicit scenes would be appropriate. I think it would be rated R, of course, and it would have to be late at night. Possibly a network like Hulu or Amazon would have to pick it up because these have less restrictions.

The concept would make a good sci-fi movie, with the explicit scenes toned down a notch. I definitely would like to see Jennifer Garner as Jennifer Hero. :lol:

I guess it will work but with a pre-cautions to minors. I enjoyed reading the book and in terms of a film, it is very interesting.

I think it will be facing a lot of trouble with the censor board. Still if it makes it to the screens then it has all the content to be a good film.

I think the plot needs more development for it to be film-ready. I also don't think there are enough battle scenes for a successful science fiction movie/tv show.

That needs more detailing..

It could actually make a good movie if the plot is refined to be more convincing and a bit more focus is given to the rest of the SS team. If the sexual scenes are not toned down it would run the risk of being a porn video! Gal Gadot would play Jennifer well, since she pulled off wonder woman, which is of the same genre.

I'm just saying that the plot needs clear definition and direction to make it as a film. The author kind of focuses on everything equally - i.e. Jennifer's relationship with Marty, her schooling, her new family ties, etc. No one idea stands out more than any other. In a film, something would have to clearly be the basis of the plot line, with everything else just falling into the background.

Also, successful science fiction films have incredible battle scenes, which this book lacks. That could have been fixed if Jennifer hadn't abandoned her team so early.
