“Ben Hur” is being remade.

I’d like to see a movie about Rayland Givens.

[Shamrock-DW]

Term Limits by Vince Flynn would fit right in to today’s dialogue....

[Joe Brower]

“The Ice People” by René Barjavel.

“Lucifer’s Hammer” or “Fallen Angels”, both by Jerry Pournelle and Larry Niven

I would like to see any of Ben Bova’s (6 time winner of Hugo Award) books.

Another favorite author is Stephen Lawhead. Not so much his early sci fi stuff, but his books like: Patrick Son of Ireland, Byzantium, and his Pendragon Cycle ( Taliesin, Merlin, Arthur, Pendragon, Grail) would make a wonderful TV series, he has Christian theme very subtly but well done, behind them all.

There are two series I would like to see. Julian May's Saga of Pliocene Exile and Roger Zelazny's Amber books.

[pa_dweller]

Isaac's Storm - 1900 Galveston Hurricane

Karamojo Safari, W. D. Bell

[7thson]

Another two I thought of - “A Garden of Sand” and “Tattoo” both by Earl Thompson. Fantastic novels set in the Midwest depression era.

Mmm mmm mmm: The great American president Barack Hussein 0bama.

Carl Hiaassen has a set of books, some of which would make great flicks. “Lucky You” comes to mind.

He wrote “Striptease”

I entertained and laughed a whole lot in the Denver airport one day, waiting for six hours with other poor people. Golly, this book is funny.

Stephen King’s “The Talisman.”

I don’t know if it could even be done...it would take a lot of money and it would be long enough to require intermission. But, wow, if made right, I would be first in line.

Years ago I heard rumors it might happen, but so far, nothing.

I agree with the Enemies Foreign & Domestic series.

Also:

One Second After

Alas Babylon

The Long Voyage Home

Warday

I think Raymond Fiest's "Riftwar" series, especially the early books (Magician, Silverthorn, and A Darkness at Sethanon) would translate very well to movie or mini-series formats.

Also, a series I'm doing with the kids: "All The Wrong Questions" by Lemony Snicket might translate quite well onto screen.

[CityCenter]

The Great Divorce, CS Lewis

[BlueLancer]

"The Godwhale" by T.J. Bass
"We All Died At Breakaway Station" by Richard C. Meredith
"The Black Company" series by Glen Cook
"The Garrett Files" series by Glen Cook
"The Pyrates" by George McDonald Fraser

[Future Snake Eater]

I’ve always wanted to see “Red Storm Rising” on the big screen.

[doorgunner69]

Hollyweird would ruin it, but Haldeman's "Forever War" would be epic, to film and see. Even has some homo references (not sex) in it to keep them interested.

I am surprised none of Joe's books has been made into a movie.

[Chickensoup]

The Earth Abides

Brave New World

Kidnapped

Heidi

A remake of 1984
