  They are very good books.... maybe they will. Until relatively recently though, the effects needed would have looked pretty crap.
  
  Also, are the books popular in America? There would need to be a fair amount of american interest for anything to do well....

  There have been attempts to, but Pratchett is concerned about maintaining the quality/continuety, quite rightly so. Personally if they could dig up the Monty Python team, literally in some cases, they'd do a fine job of it.

  They would be very good. But then..... they'd be pretty good for any comic role.
