SF books - films

Definitely The Forge Of God - book by Greg Bear. Or Footfall Niven and Pournelle I think.
Would like to see some of the earlier Iain M Banks Culture novels made into films.
There is a book about a modern character re-discovering the secret to HG Well's time machine and making trips in time, "a Scientific Romance" I think it is.
Top of the list would be the Greg Bear though, the opening chapters with the loss of Jupiter's moons then discovery of the critter in the desert with bad news- outstanding.
