Dar512, I figure The Puppet Masters beat the "Heinlein hoodoo" about adapting his work to film. And don't forget Destination Moon, speaking of which, I'd like to see The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, though it's probably actually easier to make a movie of Time Enough For Love.

Another pipe dream: movie adaptations of Laumer's Retief stories. With scripts that poke a sharp stick into PC squeamoids, deeply and without apology. Some of the alien scenery should film up awful pretty.
