- Proper adaptation of Peter Straub's novel
Ghost Story
. It was already attempted once back in 1981, but that one missed so much of what made the book special. Done properly, it would probably need to be a Mike Flanagan-style miniseries. - A biopic of Eugene V. Debs, perhaps with J.K. Simmons starring.
- A multi-season television series based on Allan W. Eckert's Winning of America series of books. The books are lightly fictionalized history based in the Northwest Territory (now Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota), western Virginia (now West Virginia), Kentucky, and portions of Canada from the French and Indian War through the War of 1812. Series would be in English, French, Shawnee, Delaware, and possibly others I'm forgetting.

Agreed! The film adaptation was a competent stand-alone flick and Alice Krige is excellent as always, but that source material really needs more than 110 minutes.

i would film the (presumably sprawling) prequel to '
The good, the bad, and the ugly
.' the three characters knew each other, I want to know the origin and what made them good, bad, and ugly; and what event or circumstances brought their pasts together.
Catch-22 needs a remake: that was a mess!

i'll look for it on pirate bay.
pasolini was definitely all in on the depravity, so i diont know if that reputation blocks any objective discussion of his filmmaking ability.
someone took a personal disliking to him, considering how mangled his body was. Italian mob? Vatican? betrayed lover?
