"Do Androids Dream of Eletric Sheep"
You'll probably recognize it as Blade Runner but the film took so much liberty the author allowed a good friend to write three sequels in order to harmonize the book with the movie.
Also "Starship Troopers".
Electric Sheep is the first book I thought of when I read the thread title.
I'm pretty indifferent on Blade Runner. It's got a great soundtrack and aesthetic, but as an adaptation of my favorite SF book of all time I can't stand it.
