Either a book adapted to a movie or tv show, or just some random 'a fantasy about.../including...' thing. What would you like to see?

I for one would like to see Either the Xaith (although people would complain about all the puns) Either that or Myth Inc.

The Dark Tower

Arthurian fantasy, Middle Age fantasy. I hope it's big budget movie, not a TV show.
Merlin was a good TV show, but I'm hoping for movies like LOTR.
And... my biggest hope is Narnia movies.
Children of the Changeling, by J. Gregory Keyes. It could be called young adult in the sense that the main characters are still in their teens (one even start out as 12 years old), but will otherwise work for all ages.
It could be made as one or three movies, or a mini-series.
What I like about it is that there are very few of the usual fantasy clichés. No elves, trolls, magic wands, magic formulas and so on. There are shamans, undead, ghosts and magical swords, but they are not the kind we are used to from the more familiar fantasy. It's a universe described as "an animistic world of elemental nature gods". One of the gods have some similarities with the norse god Loki (the mythology, not the comic book character). There is progress all the time (unlike what is seen in long series where each novel is a heavy brick), the chapters ends with a cliffhanger, and there are two parallel story lines that comes together in each of the two books. In the first novel it takes place in the north (where pale "barbarians", actually farmers, live) and in a huge southern desert city where dark skinned royals live. In the second book the two different storylines are about the protagonists and the villain. The characters are so few that it's easy to tell them apart and remember who is who, but not too few.
It's also well written.
This one could add some fresh blood and new ideas to the fantasy movies and TV-series out there.
And as others have mentioned, The Dark Tower (maybe the comic book series would work better than the novels).
Dark Tower mainly, but I would also love some movies or a tv show of Harry Turtledove's Darkness book series. It's basically WW2, but in a fantasy universe with magic, dragons, and giant rhino-things. What's not to love?

A few years ago they announced they were going to be turning Terry Pratchett's City Watch books (Vimes, Carrot, etc.) into an ongoing TV series titled "The Watch". Every great once in a while we get a blurb saying something like "yes, this is still happening" and nothing more. I would really love it to finally be realized.
Hi. I'm the inner babysitter!
Eoin Golfer's "Artemis Fowl" series.
The last word was in 2013 that a film based upon the first 2 books in the series with Robert De Niro and Jane Rosenthal as executive producers and screenplay by Michael Goldenberg was in pre-production at Walt Disney Studios, but that is the last thing I heard.
Tad Williams' Memory, Sorrow and Thorn trilogy.
Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, especially Thief of Time, Pyramids or the Guards/Witches books. The third and most recent TV adaptation, Going Postal, was the first one that truly got it right and captured the spirit of the stories, and then the adaptations stopped.
Stephen Donaldson's Thomas Covenant books, perhaps, although they'd be a hard sell.
