Top Ten Best/Worst Movie Adaptations (you could pick best or worst OR split it in half) -- originally done in the form of best movie adaptations in Feb 2011
This was kind of hard for me since I know I've watched a lot of movie adaptations, but I just don't know that their based on books. So, I could only think of 8 and the first five are ones I liked and the last 3 I hated.
1. Pride and prejudice by Jane Austen
This was a great movie!! I love the book and the movie!
2. The Hunger Games
I was a little wary about the cast at first, but when I saw the movie I was proven wrong. They where great! This whole movie was great!
3. The Notebook by Nicolas Sparks
Both the movie and the book was outstanding. This is such an emotional movie/book, this was just great!
4. Beautiful Creatures
This might not count, since I only got half-way through the book, but since the movie actaully caught y attention unlike the book I liked the movie so much better.
5. The Harry Potter movies.
These where great!! They not only did the books justice, but they also somehow captured the magical tone that all the books have. And the actors where great and outstanding!
6. The Whole Twilight Saga.
I love these books, they are the books that really got me into reading YA. And I just love them! However, I hated, hated the movies. They just ruined the books. They didn't capture the characters the plot, or anything. The only one I liked was the last one, that one was pretty good. But I still went and watched them all in the theaters, because not only did my Mom want to watch them, I just loved the books not to go.
7. The Last Song
As a movie this was good, but as a movie adaptation it wasn't good. I didn't think it canvaded the emotions that the book had.
8. Ella Enchanted
I have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand I loved it, it was fun and great!! On another hand I didn't like it. I was fine with the adjustments like the guy in stuck in the book, but I didn't like how they put in all that modern stuff.
That' my list, What's your?
Happy reading
