Who would you like to see JMS collaborate with?

[JoeD80]

I joked about it being blasphemous because Ron worked on DS9. Of course, Ron did not create DS9 and I think he had a lot to do with improving the show from season 3 onwards.

DS9 got the better writers from TNG IMO, and Moore is one of my favorites. But creatively from mid-season 3 onwards it was Ira Behr's show and a lot of credit to improving the show should probably go to him.

[Susitcha]

Thinking along the mystery lines, I would love to see what he and Rob Thomas could create.

Almost there now. He is working with Joel Silver

I'd never heard that Ron Moore quote before. Very cool.

He certainly couldn't have hurt it. I don't think JMS would hold RM accountable for somethingin Paramount and most likely Berman did. At that time, RM was still in his "yes, sir, Mr Berman, sir" phase. Thank goodness that's over.

Not sure why you would think that would be blasphemous, especially since RM highly respects JMS and was inspired by B5 and JMS' work when he did BSG.

I read once in one of RM's blogs that he got to share a stage with Harlan Ellison and JMS at a con and how he was so intimidated and honored at the same time to sit up there with the likes of those two.

The lineup I liked to see the most would be JMS / Joss Whedon. But also JMS / Daniel Knauf (Carnivale) could become interesting...

[Lunan]

David weber comes to mind now, also i think jms would do a good job adapting anne mccaffrey's crystal singer trilogy into a series of movies or miniseries. mainly i think that because he understand how o build a character and make it interesting while to wold happens in the background and those books are ver much character based

also i could see him working with robin cook on either a writen or a visual media.

i'd also love to see jms work in the fantasy genre, perhaps with hicks/weisman, jeff grubb, or shana abe

[Pedrith]

Gosh. Writing wise, JMS/Joss Whedon would be interresting, as would him teaming up with Ronald Moore. I also would like to see him and Terrance Dicks work together.

Acting wise, I would love to see Bruce Campbell, Sir Derek Jacobi, and Brian Blessed work with him, along with Michael O'Hare if he is still acting. All in the same project would be cool.

[Doom Shepherd]

ME!! Bwa-ha-ha!

What, you have to actually be published to count?

Bah! Just because Whedon's already done one "Epic Monster Ensemble Story," while I can't even get mine out from my head yet, doesn't mean it couldn't be awesome someday. Right after pigs fly and Jerry Doyle gets elected President.

[Joe Nazzaro]

Should I point out that JMS and Gaiman have already worked together on Day of the Dead? Although he didn't take any credit, there are are a number of tweaks and rewrites that Joe did on Neil's script. But I know that's not what you meant; we're talking about bigger, cooler projects.

[phazedout]

can't belive no-one has mentioned this
Neil Gaiman
I Think him and JMS could make beautful stuff together.

And Jan, I also really liked Remember WENN. Sad that the series will probably never hit home video. Hope I'm wrong.

So do I, Flynn. Thanks to AMC's stealth scheduling there are a number of episodes that I missed.

Frulad, I think an anthology series of Callahan's would be great. Much as I love his work, though, I don't think Spider could begin to keep up with JMS's level of output.

I am once again going to throw out my suggestion of JMS and Spider Robinson collaborating for a television adaptation of the Callahan's Crosstime Saloon stories- It's CHEERS meets the TWILIGHT ZONE!

It's probably blasphemous but I'd love to see him work with Ronald D. Moore.

I read once in one of RM's blogs that he got to share a stage with Harlan Ellison and JMS at a con and how he was so intimidated and honored at the same time to sit up there with the likes of those two.

I, too, would like to cast my vote for a JMS/Joss Whedon team-up. Those two would make wonderful worlds together. I would've also liked to see what the JMS/Chris Carter project would've been like. I hope they still get the chance to do something together one day.

There was a time when I wanted to see JMS run the live action SW series, but not now that I've read that Lucas is basically pre-writing all the scripts from his story. Don't think there would be much for JMS to do and given his history with controlling entities over him, I don't think the match would go very well.

I would love to see JMS write a script for Spielberg, perhaps even his "Interstellar" project. Given that JMS is now traveling in those circles with great praise, it is a possibility.

Other than people I would like to see JMS team up with, there are universes and projects I would love to see him on, such as the afore mentioned "Interstellar" as well as seeing JMS get a crack at one of the new, upcoming Star Trek scripts (post the new revival if it goes well since it seems like JJ and crew will be leaving it in a place where JMS would fit in well).

Most of all though I want to see JMS work with JMS on a new Lost Tales.

It's probably blasphemous but I'd love to see him work with Ronald D. Moore.

Also, what JMS and George R. R. Martin could cook up together would undoubtedly be fantastic.

I'm right in the middle of discovering the works of George R. R. Martin myself, and I believe JMS would add that slight touch of humor and wit they - to my taste - lack. I'm not sure this works the other way around, though... I can't for the life of me think of anything profitable Martin could add to JMS's way of building a storyline or breathing life into complex characters. Not that I don't appreciate Martin's. I'm definitely hooked on A Song of Ice and Fire these days. Then again I'm not sure about the match.

What about Don Bellisario ?

[Lunan]

personally i would love to see what would come out of elizabeth moon and jms working togeather

i'd also love to see what joe would do at adapting heinlein's work to a visual media (ok not a collaboration as suggested but a thought)
