List of books never adapted to film
Delete - This article isn't very useful, and could expand almost indefinitely. If it was meant to list books that almost became movies, i.e., the film rights were sold in anticipation of it becoming a film, or something like that, that might be of interest and use. But as is, delete. MakeRocketGoNow 23:15, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Agree with nom. List that could go on forever and without much point. Devotchka 23:42, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete (I am holding out for "list of pointless lists which have not yet been created") - Just zis Guy, you know? 23:43, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Logically inverted topics are not usefull (up to the point where a significant minority of books have *not* been made into films - a case I don't believe will happen.)Dxco 00:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The potential number of items on this list verges on the infinite.  Furthermore, the list as it stands is not particularly useful; while Brave New World and A Wrinkle in Time were not adapted as theatrical films, they were adapted as TV movies. --Metropolitan90 00:51, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as unmaintainable, unenumerable, pointless listcruft. MCB 01:54, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per Dxco. I wonder if the opposite would be maintainable, though? We don't currently have it, though we have quite a few other lists at Lists of movie source material, including the Good Book. -- Jacqui ★ 04:25, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unmaintainable. Sjakkalle (Check!)  06:29, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
