Someone Make A Movie Based On This Book

Because they are so awful, some books should never become movies (The Man of My Dreams by Curtis Sittenfeld). Some books are great books, but are hosed up in the movie-making process (The Descent by Jeff Long). Then, there is that certain book that has “movie” written on every page (Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell).

Now, I fundamentally believe (as I said here) that graphic novels make the best movies, but I will have to make an exception. Company by Max Barry is a book just begging for a movie deal. Think Office Space meets The Firm. It would be hilarious, yet exiting and tempered with just the right amount of “romance”.
