What book series would you like to see made into a movie trilogy or a show with multiple seasons? (lemm.ee)

I've often wanted a movie/series based on the Dragonlance books or the Dark Elf trilogy. What would you all like to see done if you had the ability to do it?

I see your point. But if done right, the movie/show can be almost as good as the books (Fellowship of the Ring and One Piece). It just takes someone who loves the material being used or (in the case of One Piece) the creator watching over every step.

Maybe so but they are so few and far between, for me personally I can't think of an adaptation that I have really liked. I don't like The Lord of the Rings films that much but I actually dislike the books more in that case but I realise that I am an outlier with that opinion.
