Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. I would play Dirk. It would be good.

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.

Yes, I know there have been movies/tv shows made from it, but they're not RIGHT. (Same for The Hitchhiker's Guide)

That's a dangerous question as so many great books = awful (or at least hugely disappointing) movies.

That said, I'd love to see The Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of the Apocalypse get made, if only to see that title nice and big on various suburban multiplex marquees.
