There are SO many movies based on books. Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia... What novel (any genre) should become the next BIG movie???

I'm thinking The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde... the whole Thursday Next series would be great... extremely interesting!

There are a lot of novels yet to be made into movies. "Lord of the Flies" would be a good one. They have yet to make the third Jason Bourne movie " The Bourne Ultimatum". There is always the prequel to "The DaVinci Code", "Angels and Demons". Not to mention all the Stephen King books such as "Eyes of the Dragon" and "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon". Then there are the Artemis Fowl series. There is also "A Tale of Two Cities", "Robinson Crusoe", "Great Expectations", "The Regulators", "Kidnapped", "The Hobbit", "Moby Dick" and thousands of others. A really cool CGI movie could be "Hank the Cowdog". "Eragon" is out in theaters near the end of this year, and "The Prince of Caspian" (the second in the Chronicles of Narnia) is in production.

Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
Following such controversial films as "The Da Vinci Code" and possibly "V for Vendetta" I think it does some good to implement an small amount of choas into society. Huxley's vision on a realistic post-modern society could be done very well on film, and would most certainly give non-avid readers a deeper means to delve intellectually into movie than many currenty features. It'd be interesting none the less.

The L. Ron Hubbard Mission Earth dekalogy. One of those high powered Hollywood scientologist must have enough clout to get this to the screen.
I also agree with LORD Z, Illusions would make a great film.

The Xanth books by Pierce Anthony.. excellent fantasy series.. well defined characters, and both exciting and enjoyable plots.. along with an edge to each book that makes the reader want to read the next.. so many times i have read those books.. then thought to myself later.. I want to see that movie again.. but was dismayed when i realised that they were just books and not yet movies..

I would love to see The Abhorsen Trilogy by Garth Nix adapted to the silver screen. Sabriel, Lirael and Abhorsen and a great read for all you fantasy lovers out there.
