re: #88 FFL (GOP Delenda Est)

I could foresee a number of ways to do that within the general plot of the book. Mainly involves massively compressing the early parts of the novel and probably kicking off the movie with the humans entering Rama with little time spent on exposition on why the craft and is, how the humans spotted it, and how they got to it.

That allows the movie to spend most of it’s time on or in Rama and the humans interacting with various bits of it. Which can be tweaked as needed to provide lots of action and/or blowing things up.

Which means the movie massively deviates from the book because, in the book, nothing actually happens, just the characters wandering around a massive alien ship.
