Actually, now that I think of it, The Other Boleyn Girl would be pretty controversial too! I think that one and His Dark Materials are somewhere in development hell right now.
I'd love to see the Abhorsen trilogy as Anime, especially if it were done by the team behind Spirited Away.
Assuming you don't know this, but His Dark Materials is out of development hell and being turned into a movie! They've cast Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Coulter, Paul Bettany as Lord Asriel, Eva Green as Serafina and an unknown as Lyra.
I'd love to see The Gunslinger turned into a movie. Or, more accurately, I'd love to turn The Gunslinger into a movie.

*laughs* How can you have His Dark Materials without references to The Authority or Religion??? That's the whole point of the book!!! It's like having Serenity without any reference to The Alliance!!!
*edited* to add that I always picture Morena as Mrs. Coulter when I'm reading the book. She'd be great in that role. It would be brilliant to see her playing an evil character too

The dark Tower series by Stephen King.
I think Nathan would make a wonderful Roland.

I'd love to see:
1) Tales from the Afternow, by Sean Kennedy.
http://theafternow.com/
Like the 'verse, it's a realistic view of the future and of course without any aliens.
2) The Silmarillion, by J.R.R. Tolkien.
The beginning of Middle Earth with all its mythology.

As for the Batman movie, it should be the incredible story arc of The Dark Knight Returns put out by Frank Miller in the eighties. That would rock some serious buttocks.
The Hobbit? By Peter Jackson? Are you nuts?
Well then so am I. Been waitin' for it. May be waitin' a long while, but it is worth it.
We need to make Serenity THE trilogy. Not to bash the other great trilogi, but the Serenity trilogy will be immortal.
