A favourite story from my childhood that I'd like to see adapted, is The Phoenix and The Carpet, by Edith Nesbit. The BBC did a TV miniseries adaptation back in the 80's (Doctor Who Style), but I'd love to see a lavish production.
However, I put more trust in the BBC to recreate books, rather than Hollywood. Their serial of Dickens' Bleak house, running on PBS right now is fantastic.
