What movie would you make?

Imagine you had the power to make any movie you wanted. Be it a prequel, sequel, reboot, or completely original film, what would you do? What franchise would you like to work with, no questions asked? Just imagine a studio exec came up to you and said, "would you like to make a *Insert movie name here* film?" What movie would make you say "YES!" immediately (also, before I get a bunch of Serenity sequels, yes that is a great choice, but what else?).
And, if given this chance, how would you do it? What would you do story wise? Who would you cast?
I'm just curious what you guys would do.
Me, I have a few I'd do. I'd love to make an X-men movie, but I would want Cyclops back and I'd include Sentinels. I thought the end of X2 would have been a perfect set up for Sentinels. After the worldwide attack the general human population would be so afraid they'd accept just about anything to protect them. I would also want to give Cyclops a real chance to be a leader and decision maker. Personally, I love the character (after Joss got a hold of him) and I thought he got shafted in the movies.

I would remake "Vanishing Point" with Nathan (The Captian) Fillion as the star, driving a new "HEMI" powered Challenger.

If not Serenity, then I´d remake Episode 1 & 2 of Star Wars and make them good.. Or POTC 2 & 3 and make them less extravagant
"Summer Glau can simply walk into Mordor.."

Been making the movie since 2005- we will be done this winter - see link below.
IF our pending distribution deal doesn't change this, our cast will be:
Gina Torres
Laurence Fishburne
Rosie Perez
Tim Curry
Jewel Staite
Jason Scott Lee
Adam Baldwin
Andy Serkis
Mark Hamill
Monica Bellucci
We have three sequels planned. After that I hope we can do a live action comedy about alien abductees who have crashed on an alien planet trying to figure out to get back to Earth.

I would remake "The Spiral Road".
I thought it was a great film when I originally saw it, but since then I have read the book and realised how much greater the story, written by Jan de Hartog, truly is. The only reason I can believe they left out large portions, I also consider the most important, of this book is they felt it would be offenseive to the audience of the 60's. I feel we are much more mature then that and complete novel should be placed on film for people to see. It makes no sense to throw the best works of an suthor in the trash and make a mediocre film.
So if your lurking in your local library, look this one up.

Mahalo for the kudos. I wouldn't do it any other way and it has helped us attract a lot of good people to the project.

Vanishing Point has already been remade once, in '97 with Viggo Mortensen.
Other than Serenity 2, I'd go for something more original, such as Alfred Bester's The Stars My Destination. I'd only produce, because Terry Gilliam would be directing.
I'd also like to take a crack at Heinlein's The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, but with a different script than Tim Minear's. Sorry, Tim.
Also, Starship Troopers should be remade by someone who respects the text.

I'd LOVE to see Transmetropolitan on the big screen, but I swear to Buddha if they actually use Tim Roth for the part of Spider (and they have threatened to) I'm gonna puke! Don't get me wrong Roth is absolutely perfect for Lie To ME but he just doen't have the anti-hero charisma to pull off Spider Jerusalem. I actually have a picture in my head that looks like a tough Russian or maybe African-American for a new spin? If you have no idea what Transmet is- just ask

I would do another remake of The day the earth stood still and do it right this time.
