Books to Movies

Hey guys many times we've seen books being made to movies and sometimes it goes well others not...

well i hv read twilight nd wtched twilight saga the first part as movie was tolerable but after tht i thnk the bok was heaven

harry potter books nd movies i never liked thm both

m now waiting for water for elephants by sara gruen to be turned into a movie whch stars robert pattinson

Ya ...actually the truth is a movie can never express an author's words !!! the book has a real charm a real attraction wich a movie cnt do...PS ilove you the movie is ok - ok bt book rocks <3 Evn twilight saga has been a disaster aftr being made into a movie....Den a walk 2 remember nd notebook were nice....dey werent bad bt i recommend the book mre...others are well gud... =)

they even change the stories accordingly in movies and i hate tht thng

I agree with amy22 about to kill a mockingbird done as a movie ! Although it did miss a few small points Robert Mullagan managed to create an amazing black & white movie !

i havent seen a movie as yet which is better than its book...
like
bourne series(totally changed the story!!)
harry potter
twilight
pride and prejudice
count of monte cristo etc etc...

but i have to say some of the above movies were good enough tht i got the book they were based on
i first saw bourne identity and then read the whole series..
same was teh case with twilight and count of monte cristo.. after reading the book i did find the movie lacking though..

i think this is because.. so many emotiond written in the book are not expressed and spoken aloud in the movie

greatest disappointment as yet was... god father by mario puzo...

Talking of Bride and Prejudice, it was nothing like the novel. A very poor attempt of movie making in the name of an 'adaptation'. Whereas the 1995 version, which was a TV series is my personal drool-over matter!!

My favorite redention is of the book 'New Moon'. I haven't read/watched Harry Potter, and I am inclined to start reading sometime soon. And about New Moon, it is one of my favorite movies. Though, I find the entire Twilight Saga to be quite an over-rated series. The movie clicked with me instantly - thats how I got into reading the series and sorta fell in love with Jacob. Erm! Everything from the supernatural element to Jacob and Bella's shipping to all the wrong that Jacob deciphers from Bella's love for him to how I was forced into detesing Bella hereon - my favorites! 😃

• Harry Potter 3, 5 and 6 were a disaster. Deathly Hallows part 1 is better though.
• The shopaholic movie was terrible as well. Nothing like the book, the story was completely twisted and changed.
• I read the book, 'Devil wears Prada' after watching the movie. The book was WAY better and even more entertaining.

In the movies I guess they try to put in more spice and drama which at times makes the movie unrealistic. Whatever the case maybe, the books are always better than the movies. The feelings and emotions of the protagonists are never portrayed properly in a movie.
