If money was not an issue, is there a movie, series, or a video game you would fund as a passion project with no intention on making a profit on it? (feddit.uk)

Ringworld and its sequels The Ringworld Engineers, Ringworld's Children, and the Ringworld Throne, with some less-dated attitudes. I mean I'm not totally opposed to rishathra as a concept, but just a few tweaks here and there to catch up with modern attitudes.

If money really wasn't an issue, the entire "Known Space" series. A chance for some really good CGI with Pierson's Puppeteers, Kzin, and all the specialised post-human races living on the Ringworld. And Thrint, Slavers, Outsiders, and so on.

Then there's the first-contact "The Mote in God's Eye" and its sequel "The Mote in Murchison's Eye" AKA "The Gripping Hand". Another opportunity for some interesting three-armed CGI aliens.

Oh, and "Footfall" - an alien invasion story. These aliens look somewhat like baby elephants 😲
