"What I will be remembered for are the Foundation Trilogy and the Three Laws of Robotics. What I want to be remembered for is no one book, or no dozen books. Any single thing I have written can be paralleled or even surpassed by something someone else has done. However, my total corpus for quantity, quality and variety can be duplicated by no one else. That is what I want to be remembered for."

Ask "Who is the most prolific sci-fi writer of all time?" and, and you'll hear Asimov. Also, I'd have added The Fantastic Voyage to the list. That has a movie.
