Oh yeah, Dark Tower is what I almost picked. That is basically a multifilm, hundreds of millions of dollar franchise just sitting there waiting.

An HBO/Showtime/AMC series off the Hit Man books by Lawrence Block. They're about this average guy who works as a hit man. He goes into towns, putters around, eats at local restaurants. Then he offs someone and moves on.

A movie version of the book "Vurt" by Jeff Noon. And I would get Radiohead to do the soundtrack.

A second season of the series "Bands on the Run", which was the best reality show ever.

I would get Steven Pressfield and Conn Iggulden to be writers and start making historical epics like Killing Rommel, Gates of Fire and a three movie deal doing the khans.

Then the dark tower series as an HBO deal.

Edit: someone already said the dark tower deal.

The Dr John biography"Under a Hoodoo Moon".

A Green Arrow film, or a modern day Robin Hood film

Remake of The Killer

Lost Boys sequel called Lost Girls and get all the really hot actresses of the day in it.

Yeah, but I would do just about any of Pressfield's novels.

Except Last of the Amazons, that sucked!

I would remake Commando, now staring Dwayne Johnson.
Profit
Then after I had creative control to do whatever I wanted I would make a movie about a pot smoking bear with Marky Mark as the lead.

I would remake the 6 million dollar man and do it in a serious manner.

Yep.

I would also do The Wizard of Oz as a horror/thriller movie.
