In this list, I will put 3 which could give interesting movie:
A Canticle for Leibowitz will be excellent and deep
Rendez Vous with Rama will be epic space opera
Titan could make a comedy
Chronicle of Amber will make an excellent series but not a movie
Now, my own dream scifi books:
The Book of the New Sun of Gene Wolfe will make an incredible movie but it needs to be at least a tetralogy. The story is too rich, too barocco to be restricted in a linear story. This is for me a major masterpiece of modern litterature, not less.
Riverworld of John Farmer could also make a nice trilogy. There is action, sex, fun and a lot of deeper thought it looks, a reflexion on the relativity of history and cultures etc...
But Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun, PLEASE, Mr Boorman, try to make it !!!!
