I simply have no interest in any of the comic book franchises or fantasy stuff.

There are a lot of novels from the "Golden Age" of s-f that would make wonderful movies. Unfortunately, the people now in charge of making the movies and TV shows are too young to have read any of them.

One example. Isaac Asimov's The End of Eternity would, in my opinion, make a wonderful either stand-alone movie or a limited series.
