War and Peace. I’d like to see the 1,225 page classic turned into a 2,750 page behemoth and then into a 10-part miniseries.

The play Driving Miss Daisy. Miss Daisy tried to tell her son that her car was acting strange. "Mama, cars don't behave, they are behaved upon." 
What if while Miss Daisy was lying in her feather bed with a glass of milk and Nilla wafers her Buick growls to life, scouring the treelined streets to impose vengeance on the one who bombed her synagogue. As she slept it would softly rumble onto the carport, headlights dimmed.
Hoke could still drive her around, though, to keep up appearances. It wouldn't be prudent for her to pull up to Piggly-Wiggly in a driverless car.
(I'm kidding, of course, but it's fun to imagine.)

Atlas Shrugged
Because there is no book in the Liberal lexicon that compares to the Conservative’s Atlas Shrugged in intellectual substance, vivid ideologically, and even literarily. I think King could pull off a piece of fiction that would represent Liberal ideals in a interesting and imaginative way. And he wouldn't make it as boring.
