10 Properties That Could Be Netflix's Answer To Star Wars

10. Discworld

Anime has led to some incredibly influential pieces of live-action media, but not often through direct adaptation. Products like The Matrix owe a lot to this style of storytelling, and thus it is somewhat surprising that re-interpretations of these classic animated shows/films aren't seen more frequently.

Despite the awful pre-existing real-life versions of this series that released in 2015, there is still a tonne of potential in the property. There was a time when you could not escape the overbearing presence that Attack on Titan had on popular culture, as even those who had never seen Anime before were talking about it.

The premise of the story is simple but utterly massive in scale, and this makes it not only easy to follow but quickly marketable as a film that anyone who likes thrilling action can enjoy. It tells of a world that is plagued by giant man-eating beasts known as Titans and follows our tritagonists Eren, Mikasa and Armin as they fight back against these foes.

While a live-action adaptation would undoubtedly be a challenge, there is a heap of reward that could be received from investing in such a risk.
