I would like to add Starship Troopers to this list. I know, I know, they already made one - but it was awful and so far removed from the book as to be classified a travesty of story telling. Read it! It is truly wonderful and would make a great movie if done correctly.
I did read Starship Troopers but it didn't make the list because it was already a movie. I would love to see a better take on it though. I tend to think it would be better done as a Scifi version of Full Metal Jacket.
I'm very much looking forward to Ender's Game, which should be released on Nov 1. I read it to my kids at night, we should finish it just before movie time! (my 3rd time reading it...)
Pin it!

The Green Mars and Blue Mars sequels make for quite the trilogy.

I would love to see Ring World, Red Mars, The Forever war and Rendezvous with Rama as films.
