Yes, indeed, there are many and many wonderful  books  never turned  into  a  good Sci-Fi  movie... ::)
Anyway, I've heard something on the net  about  the  projects on the way for  Neuromancer ,Ender's Game, Snow Crash, Altered Carbon, The Forever War ,Stranger in a Strange Land  and  Dragonriders of Pern  most likely...I hope so, of course...eh,eh :)

By the way, if I well remember  there is already a movie , an  Anime  movie I mean,  that the Japanese made  some years ago  about  Lensmen... and  I've hears something also about a  script  underway for Hyperion, one my favourite stories  ever...eh,eh :)
