The old Hitchhiker's Guide movie is pretty good... so are the BBC Narnia films (three three-hour (or so) made-for-tv films -- Lion, the Witch, and the Warderobe, Prince Caspian and the Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and The Silver Chair), so both of those films have a pretty high bar to meet quality-wise. I hope they make it, but it's also quite possible that the older ones will be better... you never know.
