Gordon Dickson. (Time Storm would be easily doable but it's short on explosions.  )
Poul Anderson.
Edmund Hamilton.
Larry Niven.
Jerry Pournelle.
C.J. Cherryh.
Joan Vinge.
S.M. Stirling (ISLAND IN THE SEA OF TIME would make a cool movie.)
David Weber (not for lack of trying, though.)
E.E. Smith (I don't count the anime abomination.)
Frederik Pohl
Piers Anthony

One infodump of his would take up a whole movie.
I'd like to see Elizabeth Moon's Paksenarrion and later stories get the HBO Game of Thrones treatment, or maybe the same deal for Lynn Abby's Theives World.
