Yeah. Hey if you do, you should definitely post it here.
How much work could it be?

Oh, you are doing it book by book basis rather than just a theme mashup? Sounds like a good time.

In my dream world each book is a 90 Minute HBO special.

That would be good.   I always thought that if they were gonna do movies they would have to combine a lot of them.

1 and 3 but make shadowman and kravos the same person.
A little bit of 2 as an intro and then make the movie about 4
And so on.

25 Specials seems about right...also in my dream universe all the actors will just agree...

What I wanted to see before CD was released was a 30second trailer.
 - Video or pictures, black and white, with maybe blue tint.
 - Video/pictures would slowly scroll left-to-right, or vice-versa, showing places, before fading to black, before another faded in.
 - Places would all be covered in snow and such.
 - Places would include a burned out building, a nice house like the Carpenter's or Murphy's, an empty grave, etc.
 - It would end with a snow-blown shot of Arctis Tor from a distance, with snow blurring the shot until it faded to white, with TDF logo, or maybe CD.
 - It would be 30 seconds long, and the audio would simply be the first 30 seconds of P. Diddy's "Coming Home".

Has anyone else brought up Christopher Gorham for Harry? Also, Kristen Bell as Murphy. When I cast, I always start them at the lower-end of ages, to provide for multiple seasons or sequels.

Also, to my mind Matt Bomer is Thomas.

I don't picture Bomer as Thomas, but the Thomas in my head sounds a lot like Bomer.  The Harry/Thomas banter in my head is a lot like the Peter/Neal banter from White Collar.

I was wandering youtube and came across you doing that monologue and now I'm going to have trouble finding another Molly. It'd be really convenient if you could become famous and do a bunch of TV so I have some clips to cut from.
