I’d love to see large budget versions of these with big names, big FX, and a big director! Real studio blockbusters!

By the way, Disney now owns Pixar, so your comment about Disney's "filthy hands" is rather asinine. Pixar IS the future of Disney animation.
Personally I'd like to see adaptations of a few novels:
John Dos Passos'
"U.S.A." trilogy:
* The 42nd Parallel
* 1919
* The Big Money
Harry Mazer's
The Last Mission
Cupcake Brown's
A Piece of Cake: A Memoir (not a novel, but it'd make a terrific biopic)
Delores Phillips'
The Darkest Child
Budd Schulberg's
What Makes Sammy Run?
