for me, it would be Anne McCaffrey's Dragonrider series.
Arthur C. Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama.
Supposedly the project is in development with Denis Villeneuve set to direct.

I would love to see this TOO but it has a fundamental flaw for a movie. Not much real plot or character development. There will be manufactured drama by the screenwriter or elements brought in from the sequels. But the visuals would be absolutely awesome with a good artist in charge.
Also, this is not the first time (at one point David Fincher and Morgan Freeman were attached to a Rama project) and Villeneuve has a very full calendar that includes shooting the new Bond this fall (IIRC). So I want this movie but I will believe it when I see the first trailer.
As for movies I would like to see? William Hope Hodgson's The Night Land. It would need heavy editing and revisions (notably it is an Edwardian era novel with an attitude to women that is of its time) but the basic story of a quest to save a beloved through the dark deserts of a dying world could make for a great film in the right hands.
Stephen King's Dark Tower series...
Yeah, I know they already tried it, but it was total bullshit. Get the rights off of King and then get a restraining order against him so he doesn't fuck the whole thing up, stick close to the source material, turn it all into an adult anime series on HBO or Netflix. That's what I want to see.
Don't believe everything that you read.
