Unfortunately my idea of translation and Hollywood's are vastly different. Hence crap like I, Robot.
I thought that Childhood's End was as close as possible to the book. What didn't you like about it?

I loved everything by Arthur C. Clarke but I just never really dug Heinlein, even thought I read all of his books. At the root, they were more political in nature than sci-fi, as least that was my take during junior high and high school.
