What Has Never Had a Video Game Made About It?

At all. Not counting fan-made flash games or whatever,what movies, tv shows, novels, etc have never had a video game adaption made about them?

Question inspired by dreams about using NESmaker

Quentin "Not-Stone" Tarantino films...

Great Boston Molasses Flood.

I keep thinking simple things like hair dressing or lawn mowing, but I'm sure there's some game out there now that has at least a notable part of it that can be argued that it is a game about them (just choosing a hair style doesn't count... you need to be able to design one).

I feel like that was at least referenced in at least one game, but I don't know if I'm right about that or not.
The company that made Flame in the Flood is called 'The Molasses Flood' but I don't think that counts

Also...as ways to end up dead go, Drowning in Syrup is an odd 'un :O

Rick Riordan books.
Most Bollywood films.
The Smiling Proud Wanderer.

Basically, most media that isn't either from America or Japan.

Some other thoughts:
- The Towering Inferno
- Madballs
- Network
- Airplane!
- Manimal

The Greatest American Hero
Explorers (1985)
i'm gonna git you sucka

On Marvel 80's characters; Cloak and Dagger, The New Mutants, X-Factor, Speedball, The New Warriors don't seem to have ever gotten a game.

Magnum p.i. in the vein of LA Noire, only more light-hearted, could be something great. In between mundane detective work, Thomas would have to outwit majordomo Higgins and his croquet club biddies, trick his buddies -TC and Rick- into giving him a hand with cases without racking up too many IOU's, chase bad guys around Hawaii in a Ferrari, all the while building a relationship with an old flame journalist who's seemingly just in town to cover a horse race.

The first 3 seasons of Magnum p.i. are awesome.

Huzzah!! I stand corrected.

A 4X game but instead of nations and armies it's brothel madames and workers channeling resources.

There's actually at least one decent game with this license.

Has anything been done with the Sword of Shannara series by Terry Brooks? I know there are a tong of books and the world seems to be deep enough for a lot of different types of games.

Legend Entertainment did a Shannara game back in 1995.

Not a specific film, but I enjoyed Bollywood Wannabe

Bonsai Barber on Wii covers both of these! You work as a hairdresser of sorts for various plants, trimming and shaping their hair/leaves into different designs.

The Toca Hair Salon games on mobile are pretty much identical except there you use people instead of plants.

Toca Hair Salon - Christmas lets you trim and shape a Christmas tree.

As for the Great Boston Molasses Flood, it’s covered in the recent Molasses!.

The Dark Tower universe? I'd love an open world type made for that.
