Agreed. You have the potential for some gorgeous visuals in the series, mind you, but ... eh. You can get the gorgeous visuals by reading them.
Rather than adapting the whole series, if I were Queen of Hollywood and Empress of the Known Universe, I'd suggest doing Riverworld stories. PJF did some short stories set there, after all, and other bits and pieces could probably be excerpted without too much damage--relatively speaking, that is.
