Don't Judge A Book By It's Movie

It seems that more and more movies are just film adaptions of books. "Lord of the Rings", "Stardust", "Narnia", "The Golden Compass", "Blood and Chocolate", and God help us all..."Twilight." A large majority of the filming industry has been taken up by making a book, into a movie. What do you think of this whole idea? Are people more willing to watch a movie, then read the book? Is it a good idea to turn every book into a movie? Or should the entertainment industry try for a little creativity in creating movies without relying on books?

	I saw the LOTR cartoon...it was one reason why I was scared to see the movie. The cartoon was just atrocious. Fortunately the movie turned into a pleasent surprise, but nothing can really ease the remembered pain of the cartoon.

	Lord of the Rings was just plain awesome. And I loved how they were able to fit The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen in there, which was originally a short excerpt in the glossaries of Return of the King. They destroyed The Mists of Avalon?. Nothing is sacred anymore.

	well you also have to remember that with visual effects now they can actually make alot of the fantasy books now alot of movie makers have wanted to turn books like narnia and LOTRs into movies for a long time but they had to settle for some really bad ones before they had the visual effects to make the current adaptations i still have nightmares about the old LOTR cartoon uck terrible

	Well books are simply a movie in your mind and artists are inspired to paint scenes from books so why wouldnt directors and screenwriters who are also artists desire to turn these books into their own artworks? The lord of the rings trilogy was exceptional in my mind even though it left a lot of the story out, it still remained true to the story and was the book realised in pictures. Some adaptations simply blow though through the script and choice of actors. The Mists of Avalon was a huge dissapointment for me in all regards cause the director or scriptwriter or whatever missed the point of the movie and left all the important bits out and the casting was appaling.

	I still can't get over the film version of one of my favorite books as a kid. Regardless of the fact it wasn't a great piece of literature, Ella Enchanted was entirely ruined by the first utterance of a medieval mall. The charming memory of reading that book as a young girl will forever be sullied because of that pile of goo.

	Lets not forget graphic novels being turned into movies, like Sin City and 300. Also another book-turned-movie that I forgot to mention, Horton Hears A Who. That was another good book that managed to survive in a good movie.

	They made a movie out of the Darwin Awards. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried those Dummies books...
