Idle Thought: Now that shows (movies) consisting of 8-10 eps are common on streaming services, I think it's time they took up the challenge of such long, complex books such as "Rendezvous With Rama" and Neal Stephenson's "Cryptonomicon."
Rama is timeless, and the 1990s tech-based Cryptonomicon holds up nicely.
If they can do a needless remake of Shogun, surely these two and others can be made.
