Movies that should be shows
From time to time there are shows that released as films and they usually tend to suck compared to their show counterparts. But rarely is there films that become tv shows.
I just saw 'Everybody Wants Some' and felt it would be a great show.
Which other film should have it's own tv show?

"Eye in the Sky" should be "Homeland"

Hear me out: Shawshank. Tell me that couldn't have been made into like a 5 season Oz-type show without sacrificing any of its plot/message/whatever. Only downside would be probably not getting a guy like Morgan Freeman or Robbins.

there are advantages to having a mini series on hbo or netflix over making a film.

Plenty really
Take any good crime drama and package it up into a longer, drawn out and detailed version
Take The Departed for example, or Heat..
I'd wager one season or something.. Anything longer and you're really asking for more than what usually one feature film can offer, unless that is you are really changing things up.

The trick is for the world that's created to be interesting enough to explore multiple stories within it. It certainly helps if the characters are interesting enough to follow through multiple stories too, but it really requires the world to be interesting more than the characters even.
Eyes Wide Shut would've been a great HBO series. Lord of the Rings could've been broken out. Star Wars could've been broken out. End of Watch would've made a good series.

That would be awesome.
I thought The Last Man on Earth with Will Forte would have worked better as a single 1.5 hour long movie. Just stretch out the first episode and be done with it.

I could see Heat being a season of True Detective.

This is becoming less and less true. In recent years we have gotten Bates Motel (Psycho), Hannibal (Silence of the Lambs series), Minority Report, 12 Monkeys, Evil Dead, Scream, Teen Wolf, etc.
