Lone Survivor - Story of Marcus Luttrell and his three SEALs in Afghanistan. The book reads like an action movie in some ways.
Absolutely.
Like Blackhawk Down, this book WILL eventually be turned into a movie.

even a good writer like Cornwell can jump the shark. The series just hasn't been the same.
But I'm sure that Cornwell has sold the movie rights to most, if not all, of her books. I guess some Hollywood exec has her stuff on a shelf somewhere. Maybe he hates lesbians.

Some big budget Sci-Fi movie about The Bermuda Triangle.

Snow Crash is a great pick and would be very doable although it may be a bit dated now. I love the fact that Google used Stephenson's "Earth" software as the basis for the name "Google Earth". And that Stephenson pretty much coined the term "avatar" (modern meaning) in this book.
Cryptonomicon would be epic but would have to be at least 10 hours.

A movie based on the Nelson Demille book Charm School would be great. One of the best books I have read in a while.

Yeah, I liked the first one a lot, a bit less for the second and so on. By the 5th or so her writing was mediocre at best and it became pretty clear that she hates men. She jumped the shark quite a while ago.
