Books to Movie - Dream Adaptations

It is rare that a film gets the full spectrum of emotion and story that a book can impart upon someone. But there are a few that get it right. I'm hoping to see The Great Gatsby soon and I hope that it is not one of the disappointing literary to film creations.

To see what other people were looking forward to or enjoyed in the past as far as book to movie adaptations that have taken place or will take place I posed this question on Twitter:

So what are people looking forward to, daydreaming about, or have enjoyed as far as book adaptations go?

So the list on Twitter was

Thief of Always by Clive Barker (I hope that this becomes a movie one day).
Monster Hunter Inc.by Larry Correia (I haven't read this one yet, but am adding it to my list now)
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin (Choose your pick of movie adaptations on this one)
Immortal Instruments Series by Cassandra Clare
The Painted Veil by W. Somerset Maugham

I did have some replies on Facebook as well to this question.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Under the Dome by Stephen King
The Cement Garden - Andrew Birkin
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Ulysses - James Joyce

So what books to movies have you enjoyed, are looking forward to, or wish would happen?
