I keep seeing these trailers, or occasionally movies, and realize while I'm watching that they're based on a Victor Gischler, or Charlie Huston, or whomever, novel that I read a couple of decades ago. I guess the development process is as painful as everyone says—that 20 year gap seems common.

Some of it is that it takes a decade or so for a young writer/exec whom loves a book to get into the position to advance it.
