The track record for properly adapting Asimov to the screen is pretty dismal- Nightfall, The Bicentennial Man and I Robot all butchered the source material.

Nightfall was doomed from the start because of the low budgets and not caring. I Robot I dont even know they bothered with Asimov since it was just a generic Will Smith movie. Bicentennial Man is probably most disappointing since it seemed to have the funding and the desire but then couldn't resist just randomly adding things for no reason.

Nightfall makes me think of Ugly Little Boy. Wonder why nobody has ever tried to adapt that, it would also work really well.
