Happy Friday! And Happy Halloween weekend! Here's this week's question from Alison and Parajunkee:
What are your favorite books that have been made into a movie? - Suggested by Girl of 1000 Wonders
I really enjoyed The Help. I thought they did a great job. And Unbroken was good too. I wish I could say The Martian, but I haven't seen the movie yet! (Loved the book, though.) I think the Harry Potter series were good movies, but there's just so much in those books that if you've read them, you can't help but feel cheated. Same with The Lord of the Rings.
Have a great weekend everyone. Thanks for stopping by. Leave me your link, and come back soon!
Hopping through. Definitely true that they left a lot of things out of the HP movies. I wonder if they would have felt overloaded if they'd included them. I don't know. Still, the books will always be better.

I felt the same way about LOTR as you did about HP! There was a lot of fat to trim, but I couldn't help but be a bit disappointed that some of my favourite bits didn't make the final cut.

If you enjoyed the book, you will probably like the movie version of The Martian. I am a new follower via Bloglovin. My blog is http://ponderingtheprose.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHeard so many good things about The Martian movie but I want to read the book first before I see it.
