Because we all NEED to know who would play Charles Wallace.
Earthsea Trilogy by Ursula Le Guin
Arguably one of the most famous and beloved fantasy series of the past 50 years, Ursula Le Guin's Wizard of Earthsea is still as powerful as it was when it debuted in 1968. Why these books haven't been made into movies is really the only mystery left in the world. And no, I do not count the 2004 TV mini-series at all.

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle
Madeline L'Engle's seminal classic is the story of a young girl and her overly precious baby brother traveling across worlds to rescue their father from a spreading darkness. The book contains beloved literary characters such as Mrs. Whatshit, Mrs. Who, and Miss Which, not to mention AUNT BEAST. Seriously though, A Wrinkle in Time is one of the best fantasy books ever written.
Note: Copies of the 2003 made for TV movie starring Gregory Smith (of Everwood fame), should be burned.

The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander
Lloyd Alexander's Chronicles of Prydain may be one of the most underrated fantasy series of all time. The story of Taran the Assistant Pig-keeper who meets a Princess and learns how to be a hero is eternal and deserves its time to shine on the big screen. Also, who doesn't want to see what Gurgi would look like?

Graceling by Kristin Cashore
Katsa, a young girl living in the Seven Kingdoms, is a “Graceling” – one of those rare people who were born with an extreme skill. The series (which includes a companion Bitterblue and sequel Fire), fit right in with the burgeoning young adult market – a fiercely strong female protagonist and tons of magic and swordplay. Make this a movie!
