I saw this post at work earlier today, and was really looking forward to answering your questions! Here I am! :D

1. El Unicornio!!! I would love a mini-series (because it's a story that definitely needs needs more space to breathe, and a movie wouldn't be enough!) with the adventures of Melusina! "Everything goes as perfectly as an adaptation could" would be a key thing here, because it would need to get both the playful magical realism and the (somewhat veiled) queer meaning of the novel just right!

2. The 2020 adaptation of Dracula. I thought it was terrible!

3. Definitely "Invisible Cities". Maybe it's because I don't have enough imagination and creativity, but I don't see how a TV series could capture/translate this book. (Also, I agree with you: "Till We Have Faces" wouldn't work at all!)
