Plot Summary:Foundation tells the story of a group of scientists who seek to preserve knowledge as the civilizations around them begin to regress.
To date very few of Asimov's stories have been made into movies. The Foundation series is my personal favorite of all his works. Since it's really a collection of short stories, it lends itself quite well to a movie format. Asimov's sparse writing style would be ideal as well.
