Re: SciFi Channel version
I was reasonably faithful to the book, the script was fine, but some of the acting was awful - Gurney Halleck in particular springs to mind.
Any book thicker than about 1cm will need serious trimming to make a movie that isn't split into bits - although as LOTR and The Hobbit showed, you can go too far and add shed loads of content that isn't in the original.
